A basic model RM costs about 50k, so I think "well over 100k" would be a huge understatement. |

My gut reaction was "What a f****** mess." I'm sure it's a technical marvel but it looks like a $20 fake! |

I actually like the little deviation from the normal tonneau cases that RM uses... It looks huge though... |

There's too much going on there for me. I believe in the "less is more" approach to watchmaking. |

The whole "FLIGHT INSTRUMENT" thing really ruins the piece for me. It is interesting to see a slide rule incorporated into a modern piece, though. |

What are the complications? What is the thing on the right with the 'N'? |

My reaction was "When did RM start designing for Invicta?" I couldn't agree more....that pretty much sums up my initial reaction too. Waaaaay too busy and would be hard as hell to determine what it was at a glance. |
