Thank you for the kind words my friend! Have to lmk next time you are in LA.

People are love or hate on the pink straps but I love them on both the rm030 and rm72, especially the velcro on the 030. Can see the size difference between the two here. The 030 doesn't dwarf the 72 as much in person as optically depicted here.

Put in a request for a white carbon rm67-02, that should round out my RM trio.

LOL I somehow missed this reply earlier. I generally prefer a thin/light case on composite which is why the 67-01 is appealing to me, my daily driver is a 5167 for this reason. Makes my life easier if it's not in high demand. I'll stop by the boutique and see what they say. Thanks for the thoughts!

You’ll have to buy whatever watch they currently have in the boutique albeit undesirable. NYC boutique normally has at least 1 ladies or 1 diver piece so I’m assuming LA is the same.

I thought I’d say “hi” to the RM club with my RM 030 in Rose with factory diamonds. I’ve got it set up on the pastel blue strap, which really pops.

It is not the same, RM LA is owned by Westime where the NYC RM boutique is not. I believe Westime only owns LA, Vegas and Miami RM boutiques.

You got my attention!
I was wondering/hoping others would share wrist shots of different models, but I realize that only a small subset of RM owners post on TRF.
So, thank you for sharing your awesome piece.

NYC is a joint venture with RM and Westime...

I thought Westime was focused in the west coast (mainly California) only, no?
I know that the Boston RM is a JV with Material Good NYC. But the RM in NY was corporate without a JV partner. Not sure how much a difference it makes in the end.

I was told by the staff there it is a JV, but I couldve misheard..

While I loved how wild the bonbon collection was, this new release, tourb or not, is down right embarrassing for the brand. I'm sure all 55 are sold out

you gotta appreciate how they have balls to create/fill these niche edge cases

Over 1 million for these "artistic" watches like RM 47 and 88

Frankly no one else can pull it off

sorry to hear, you would think they would have some extra parts in stock

the cermet looks amazing

like ceramic, the hardness comes at a cost.. I have an AP Trulli with cermet bezel, it looks different though.

care to share some pics pre-damage

The case is cracked on both sides :(
It seems they may want to replace the whole case…did they tell you yet?
I’m interested to know what caused this particular damage.

I’m sorry this happened to such a sleek and cool piece, but hopefully warranty will do something.
