This has to be my new favorite watch to dream about. And I thought the Platona was out of reach, come on powerball.

Just gorgeous, congrats and enjoy.

Congrats.
I'm intrigued, the red 035-02 lasted only 1 month?

Having two 035's would have been redundant. But, I enjoy watches and move on to the next--it's much more fun for me that way.

I understand not everyone buys to keep (my pieces are always special purchases which are keepers) but only 1 month? If I follow the thread correctly the 035-01 is actually a piece you have owned before - wrong decision to sell? Is this now a keeper or likely to be moved on again?

It's kinda like waiting 8 years for a watch I could never do it

I never keep any watch forever... (my) life is MUCH more fun with constant RM variety

What works for me may not work for you...it's ok.

Hello texex91
The RM's designs are intriguing.
My eyes don't know where to focus.... hahahaa (older than you!). Congratulations on your acquisition. Obvious how important it was to you. Definitely an attention-getter!
