This looks really good! But it's some type of fantasy model cross between rm 35-01 and 35-02 in my opinion.

True, but the detailing on the bridges look very nice imho. Little screws that been added, the mainspring it shineness/brush. Also the faux incabloc finally been added, but unfortunately the gen has a clear incabloc?

still wrong hands aswell.

Yep picked one up for about $100 less via M2M, CONUS based too, got here in 2 days. It's nice, not perfect, but very cool IMO. It's a little too tall compared to the gen, like most RM reps I suspect, the forged carbon pattern is off, as well as the bezel/case proportions, but at 0.05161% of the price of a gen 27-02 who's complaining? It nearly looks 1:1 from a few feet away.

Do you think it could be modded? I'm thinking remove the rotor so it's just manual wind and narrower, and sand down the mid case a little to make it thinner?

Already doing this along with making a real carbon case for it!

The detailing looks really good, this is actually so far the best rep I've seen of an RM to bad it's a fantasy model, I'm going to email trusty time and see if they can get one on a black Kevlar strap. Did you watch their QC video?

I think the thickness is due to the movement and the movement decoration being stacked one on top of the other, not just the rotor.

I may get one for fun/beater when working on the cars or something, maybe even attempt to mod it into a better rm35-01 idk.

If they make it a red carbon case, it could be a great buy ! Things are going forward quickly. In fact I've never seen things move so quick, on any model.

You guys do know there IS an auto version of the RM035 right? So it's not really a fantasy aside from the colour combos!

Right, but the colors and a few other things make it fantasy

You know I was thinking, I wonder what a maker would charge to build a close to 1:1 copy of the rm27-02, like if they made a carbon case one and tourbillion balance wheel for show
