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


If these other brands like Sonic, and now RMF can produce watches with the new movement, I guess ZF could soon too? 🤔
Yesss I’ve seen it too. If ZF were to release a 35-02 with this movement I’d instantly buy it

Since the screws are too black on the BBR White ceramic RM055, am i right to say the BBR RM055 NTPT is a more safer choice than the full white ceramic version of bbr rm055?

Safe choice in what regard?

You’re going to have to be more specific if you actually want a useful response…
Which model is closer to gen? because the screws are too black on the full white ceramic yea, so if that is the case would the black ntpt be safer and closer to gen more than the full white ceramic version.

The least of your worries is the colour of the screws my man. The ZF has no moving balance wheel (kinda the crown jewel of this skeleton movement) and whilst the BBR has a moving balance wheel, the movement configuration is completely wrong with extra moving parts and it’s very obvious it isn’t genuine.

Neither is even remotely close to gen for that reason so the question is what do you prefer aesthetically out of the two?

If you watch the comparison vid further up this thread you’ll see exactly what I mean with BBR compared to Gen.

Apparently the screwdriver for the BBR is about 10£ plus shipping and does both 5 and 5 prongs. Going to order one today

Was going to propose to order a bunch of them (so some of you can get one too if you want too) but afraid they arrive and don’t fit

If they do fit I definitely want one, let's work something out when they arrive!

Will get one and report.

I have also order that baby blue strap from that AliE seller (some posts above), he told me he will also include the correct screwdriver with my order (which I highly doubt will work…) let’s see

Just spotted these Sonic RM055's online. Is this one a fantasy? Anyone have a view yet on Sonic's offerings compared to ZF or BBR?

Movement still looks the same as the BBR, no?

I'm down for the right screw driver too.

You ordered the RM35 blue strap that has a metal or plastic plate?
I saw 1 seller selling a full set made for BBR, is that the one?
