when they make that white FC decent then we will all get 27-02. Right now is a no no for me.

I'm with you there. The greyish FC pattern is kinda off-putting. I actually found a 27-01 rep with a clear caseback on instagram though! Pretty intriguing imo

I decided, and bought a RM055 Asia Edition !
Will wait and see if the makers can come up with an upgraded RM027-02.

Here are the gen vs rep pics of my 2 RM's a few people have asked for:

(Gen on the left if there was any doubt!)

Looks Good JJ. You know I never actually wore my RM because the movement didn't work. But managed to get my hands on a gen movement so need to do an engine swap.

That's a Miyota gen not an RM gen. [emoji30]

Now I need someone to swap it out!

The sapphire is RM56-01. I got it from my local TD. Sorry, can't help you with international TD.

Could i see it in close up picture under light buddy. Does the red rubber strap come with it or you replaced ? Thanks

That is indeed quite nice!! Wonder when our TDs can offer it.

How is the 27-02? Any close up photos please? Is the forged carbon bad or good in your opinion?

I think the white FC is pretty intriguing, it doesn't look "neat" but my eyes seems can't stop looking at it while i'm wearing it.
It also has some texture when you touch it, unlike the smooth black FC.
I think if only the colour is more white than grey, it would be a really nice RM reps.

Your very lucky to get hold of a gen movement. I would be interested in that as considered selling my gen RM now to try something else.

Interested to hear about they compare in look and feel to the rep. The gears on the rep are definitely poor but what else lets it down compared to the gen?
