alright, i'll be lengthy

I got the RM27-02 finally and I was wrong all along !

This has not the case of the rm35-01 i already own (and RM27-01 I used to own). It's totally different: it's shorter, it's smaller, it's thinner..basically it's (IMHO) a better case than RM35 -01 which, do not get me wrong, is one of my favorite cool watches but it is a bit chunky nonetheless.

Photos below will prove it.

My comments on the watch are:

1. It's supercool
2. it's comfortable on my 6.7" wrist
3. i'm not sure it's forged carbon to be honest. it feels plasticky smooth
4. AR is blueish like gen and it's not too bad after all
5. Deco gears are superb
6. RICHARD MILLE on the inner bezel is hardly legible
7. No lume. No seconds hand. And mine is super silent so you never know if it's working or not lol
8. It's very hard to match with an outfit i guess but I'll work it out !
9. Strap screws are pentalobes like bezel's ones. unlike rm35 which has tetralobes screws. Anyway I doubt straps are interchangeable between the 2 given the different lug size

Onto the photos

Oops! I must have missed that, I thought it was a different earlier version being discussed.

That's ok, in your defence TS seem to be uploading a bunch of already released watches as though they are new releases, god knows why, so you'd be forgiven for thinking it was a new release!!

Got mine yesterday, pretty much agree with superlory

Cons:
I agree the case feels really plasticky
Frozen gears
Strap feels like it will get dirty very quickly

Pros
Its a really sexy watch
Love the blue AR
Very comfortable
Smoothest wind of all my reps


Its really flashy as well, not too sure i would be comfortable wearing it out and about

Any idea if the straps for the rm35 fit this one?

Yes the RM35 Straps fit.
I have tiny wrists and swapped the Velcro for the rubber rm35.

Good luck.

Can you post pic of the RM 27-02 with an other strap than the orange velcro ? If someone has it on a black velcro ?

Does the balance wheel at the bottom move? On the Gen thats the tourbillon

Other can chime in, but I don't think so. That's my only reservation with this watch, it's a big one though

Ive got it, and really, unless you know what you are looking for, its not easy to spot. Basically this watch looks great on the wrist and you can even let people handle it. But it prob wont fool a Mille expert. How many of those are there?

I stand corrected. I had only seen time lapse / speeded up videos where the 'tourbie' part looks faster and makes moves lots.

Can you send a pic on the wrist from the side showing the depth please?

It would be appreciated

Dear members, I will very much appreciate if someone can send me info where is available to buy this RM 27-02 version in Europe. I mean the smaller and thinner version, SuperLory is talking about. Thank you for your help.
