RM27-05 Released

[Chris8535]

I had these pics about the rep of 27-05

No much info I got about it (yet)

But seems superp

I think they will not be able to reach 11.5g unless having very high tech machines but 38 seems resnoable for now

What is this gen pretending to be a rep?

 

[Reaps]

I actually love everything about it and wish there was a rep. Not a chance in hell I’m guessing.

Rep but it's a fake tourbillion. The carbon kinda looks garbage/fake But 38g and nice thickness which is all you can ask for

 

[Reaps]

Aren’t all of these pics the gen?
Edit: never mind. Not a tourbillon so likely won’t be too expensive. Maybe $450?

Not gen, gen is 11g.

 

[VenomGT3]

Not gen, gen is 11g.

That’s wild. I’m not sure I could justify spending $600k on something that weighs 11 grams

I don’t care I want it. I wonder when and where it will pop up.

Ya and its price 400$ from non-TD

I belive the 11.5g weight of the Gen is without the strap. Once you account for the strap I am guessing the weight will be in the same as rep ball park.

Do the hands even work? I feel like this is bs.

the real question is = to the gears work. at that price i would think not, but what do i know = just a little.

 

[Reaps]

I'm starting to think it's a quartz movement with entirely faked deco plates but we have to wait for more confirmation.

I'm starting to think it's a quartz movement with entirely faked deco plates but we have to wait for more confirmation.

The reason is I cannot see the mainspring or balance wheel or anything indicating a mechanical movement.

Furthermore there are no mechanical movements off the shelf that could achieve this thinness...

So my bet is quartz

I think you're right, there isn't a mechanical movement I'm familiar with that has a similar layout, and it's much easier to crank out a quartz with deco plates.

 

[jsanta]

I don't understand... Is there any factory already working in the rep?

 

[VenomGT3]

The watch came out in May so they’ve had time to work on a mid tier rep

 

[Chris8535]

I’d be down with a quartz version as a first taste. Curious how to try it.

 

[GiantSquid]

If they put the effort into a reallllllllllllllly good set of deco this might be the first decent quartz RM clone; I've always wanted an RM I can just throw on for a trip or going to the range or somewhere I don't want to wear a mechanical rep and not have to worry about power reserve or setting the time or anything, just throw on and go. The "tourb" is always going to be a little boring if it's static, but there are enough cool details that it might be a nice weekend-chores watch.

 

[positivitony]

would love a nice thin rm to daily. gimme a white on a black strap

 

[MasterWatch]

So, the straps are only 7.33 grams? why do I have a hard time believing that.

 

[MasterWatch]

If you actually click on the link and read the article the 18.83 grams is for the RM 27-01 not the RM27-05. Not always a good idea to rely on Google/AI. DYOR
