Richard Mille: How to start the journey

is there a typical journey that most customer go through in order to get the pieces they desire? For example, do most people have to purchase a diver or a ladies to get a RM 67 for example? I’m currently deep in to AP and have many pieces to go with them to get my grail, so probably only want to spend $150k max or so with RM….so I assume I might not be able to get anything at all if that’s my budget for now (?)

The way the market has been I’d walk in and ask for a 67-01 and if they say no then buy what you want grey. Prices much like AP have come way down.

Good luck in getting what you want. I too think the market on these is softening.

You will be able to get a pre-owned 67-01 within your budget, no shot at 67-02 in any color variation.

Would try it on first, the 67-01 wears fairly small and I have small wrists, if you go pre-owned I would look to a rm010/029.

I would think very hard before attempting to start a journey with this brand. If you are seeking a one and done piece for the brand then consider the secondary market. This brand encourages the secondary market. Frankly, all brands encourage secondary market. But this brand is transparent about it. Go secondary if you are only looking for 1 piece and budgeting a certain dollar amount.
