Simple.

Rolex -> AP -> Patek -> RM

Mix and matching all the time, but that is a simple timeline

After speaking with dozens of RM owners (and converting many as well) this is a common progression.

And eventually:

Rolex -> AP -> Patek -> RM -> Rolex = Full circle!!

Never say never... ;)

I agree. It seems like a perfect fit, and I know it can't be the weight. Wear it around for a week and I promise everything else will feel too small after.

Saw the video on the RM 39 E6-B. My favorite RM by far. Simply spectacular.

Thanks Paul - I'm really on the edge but have a PP on the way and another in my sights....I will say I am in love with the Baby Nadal - the size is perfect!

Forget the 'other in your sights' PP...035 movement & case are just mesmerizing.

Baby nadal is a great great piece. It is the one that I regret selling the most.
But I would say the 004 adequauately make up for it
