BBR factory RM 055

Well wearing mine since few weeks and very happy - no shutter at all and the watch seems solid (except the clasp which isn’t great but I don’t care). Finger crossed it stays that way

What does “shutter” mean?
Is it the second hand that jumps some times?

 

[Falter]

Might have meant "stutter". In some instances these come with a stuttering seconds hand. Seems like a good amount of people are getting good ones with no stuttering now.

One stutters in specific times. Why is it like this?

 

[Falter]

Not exactly sure what your question means but I do know some of them are prone to stutter due to the movement being a modified movement.

I bought the ZF clasp too and agree it deffo has a better finish/mechanism.

Where did you buy the ZF clasp from? My BBR V2 clasp has developed a fault where the buckle tongue/stud falls out. It's a threaded piece and isn't secure in the buckle itself sadly.

Anyone else had this happen? I've tried using some locktite but it doesn't work (probably because it's painted/powder coated). I guess I'll just try to glue it but I'm worried about it falling out and getting lost.

I ordered from C-time. Was $68

You can use some 2part modeling epoxy (greenstuff, JBWeld or similar), make a tiny little strip, wrap it around the threads like it's teflon tape (clockwise so it doesn't unroll in the threads), thread the stud back in, and remove the excess that will squeeze out. Let it cure for a day and it'll never come out again. This is a great trick when you can't re-tap the hole or re-thread the stud properly.

He overcharged you. They cost 30$

I’ve ordered a bunch of clasps over the years and never paid as little as $30 for any of them.

Where are you getting the ZF clasp for $30?

seems your top bezel is mounted the wrong way. The cut-out should be at the crownpart mate.

One day, I will get it right

 

[RektZX]

is the ZF RM055 Better or BBR RM055?

is the ZF RM055 Better or BBR RM055?

Some RMF sapphire RM 055s with the new movement on biao:

RICHARD MILLERM RM055 RM-055 RM Factory Best Edition Green Crystal Case Rubber Strap RMUL2 - AMO Watch

Richard Mille In order to be popular, the RMul 2 movement RM055 has always been the popular welcome model of the RM brand sales market. It is sought after by

biao6688.com

If these other brands like Sonic, and now RMF can produce watches with the new movement, I guess ZF could soon too?

Can someone kindly direct me to where to buy the correct screwdrivers for this BBR? I have 4 of them but none fits this watch - only the larger screws (like one the RM001)

 

[GiantSquid]

I *think* the BBR screws might not be standard. I've got a full set of RM screwdrivers and the screw heads are too large for the 2.35mm screwdriver but the relief holes each screw is countersunk into are too large for the 2.75mm screwdriver. I'm not 100% sure but you might need to taper the shank of the larger screwdriver in order for it to work.

Make sense actually. Thank you for that

I'll set up my grinding station this weekend and see if I can confirm that info and taper one of the shanks of my extra screwdrivers to check fitment!
