Pathetic to be honest. The 25 piece Brazil 004 edition was the only one interesting but they didn't seem keen to do a deal even though they have had it for ever.

There are no desirable RM's just hanging out anywhere...well maybe at your favorite Boutique in SG at full price and attitude

Without having something on order it's almost impossible these days.

Heard there was another price cut directed at some of the newer models (35-02). Just a few thousand, so not a big deal, but with production up, these price cuts, and once hot watches going out the door under 100k if you work for it, it seems the brand's hit an inflection point.

Well if the price for a 35-01 goes to 50k there will be an incoming, it would mean the brand is dead but would love to get a 50gram watch for 50k, 1k per grams should be the maximum price for a time only watch ans should be the norm

The world is ending, store your food, cover the windows, lock the doors. There was a post well back regarding the price change https://www.rolexforums.com/showpost...postcount=2985. Effected 3 pieces for $5k (I have old and new price sheets and they are posted if you want the real facts). You want to spread this world is ending stuff, and some are gullible to believe it. RM is the hottest brand on the market (and confirmed by people at the HK show). The 35-02 were selling over $120k at Hong Kong show (and those are dealers)...see those are facts vs just hearsay.

Yes RM raised production (thankfully) some in order to meet some demand and grow the company (3 boutiques opening in US alone this year). Remember Patek cut prices across the board, not just three pieces.

I don't want to take this PICTURE thread down a argument path.

People love to worry about RM, but they've been bashing the brand for 10 years and it's stronger than ever. You're on a war path and Patek is the savior so have fun. 5131 is a lovely watch.

Enjoy your Patek journey

Ok....back to the PICTURE THREAD....

I spoke to a lot of dealers at the HK show as well as a trusted seller from here who was at the show, and RM is certainly not one of the brands showing any signs of pain at the moment. Mind you most of the prices being asked at the show (for many brands, not just RM) were plain silly.
