Hi guys, was at the AD today and the RM033 caught my eye.
fitted perfectly at 45mm.
was wondering are Richard Mille watches worth their money compared to the likes of AP, PP or VC?
where actually does RM stand in horology and why do their watches command such a premium over AP, PP or VC?

You're paying a lot for handmade exclusivity with Richard Mille, but don't really think that you can compare with those other brands - they are such a completely different look. In horological terms you could argue that RM is better because it's more hand made, or less good because there is less automated quality control.

Price is dictated by supply and demand as much as anything else.
