It's really Ti case and the watch weight is only 103g.
bte the thickness is only 15mm something, the reason why look too thick, it's because the stupid flaw small crown.

The reason why it looks thick is cos 15 point something is f thick !
Lol, for this kind watch 15mm is fine. As not like 17mm something, that is f thick! The RM 052 is about 17mm!
Ordered the RM027... I couldn’t resist!!
It better not be DOA or get lost in transit, doubt my TD will cover this one!!!

Don't post often, but very rarely do we see such a level of functionality with no deco plates on a rep. Expensive yes, but looking at some video on Youku (https://v.qq.com/x/page/v0864cw5z6n.html?spm=a2h0k.11417342.soresults.dtitle), the RM027RN rep is absolutely mesmerizing, and I'm almost certain most people won't know/care enough about Richard Mille to spot the flaws, especially when the movement has about 5 layers of mechanical intricacies in it.
Going to pick one up, hope to share with you guys once I have it in hand.

Looks to be 50mm long and 40mm wide, 15mm thick....on paper it doesn't sound enormous, definitely smaller than a big pilot so perhaps the dude has tiny hands?
It’s an RM... they are big watches!! But don’t be fooled, they wear particularly well on small wrists because of the curvature. I’m pretty happy with these dimensions. To put it in perspective the latest/slimmest RM035/RM055 currently available is 1mm thicker than this and uses a Miyota movement which is probably one of the slimmest movements available... this has a fully working skeletonised tourbillon and is slimmer!!!

Ja and when compared to the genuine counterpart it looks like an decent attempt and solid watch.

I am inclined to agree. Looks to be overall a reasonably sized watch with a crazy good looking movement. My guess is that this is a modified version of the Skeleton Tourbillon found on the V45 Vanguard Skeleton....

actually, i dont know who has the more accurate info, the on puretime, they have different size described
Probably neither, TDs are famous for giving totally inaccurate measurements, especially Puretime!!

yep, I just watch the videos for both watches, 052's dimensions are 44mm*51mm*17mm, and 027's dimensions are 42mm*51mm*15mm
Honestly, the size isn't too bad, the 052 definitely a little thick

looks like you went with a nTD - hopefully the savings are good enough to risk..good luck and keep us posted!

If it get’s lost, seized,..buying from a TD gives you reassurance it will be replaced.
Btw, I like both, 027&052. Don’t care too much about some flaws (thickness is not a problem for me for the 052) which are expected to be present on skeleton reps with tourbillon movements. What I don’t like is the price
Anyway, I’ll have to get them both..
