Thank you for this comparison. I agree…

while they are similar, the 010 is notably rounder, and relatively “bloated” looking (again, in comparison). Therefore, I like the sharper and sleeker look of the 005. Given your particular taste for sleeker, what did you think of the 67-01? It is my favorite given the RM DNA but in a more professional and wearable presentation. That being said, the opposite end of spectrum with the larger (but not sooo busy) and complicated pieces would be a lot of fun. I like your 005 in this respect a lot 👌🏽
I like it more than the recently discontinued 030. The 72-01 is most eye catching of the current production. But still, I think the earlier pieces are the best. I hope you at least wear yours around the house now and then…something better than nothing I guess. Wear them all in the best of health and longevity!

I don’t know why these early models.. they are so special on the wrist.. pure, unpretentious, elegant and timeless to me and the comfort is one of the best in the business. Despite the relatively small size, it has amazing wrist presence too. Just some of...  

Looks very cool …

And already a racing machine at your wrist. Yet barely nobody gave a damn. Today... Well, I wonder how some people can be si stupid to wear a fake ignoring how dangerous has become. You're likely in a private place and can wear it with no snipers on the r... 

Yes, they are pretty accurate..

I swim a lot with it on my wrist.. Sadly it is no longer safe to wear this openly.. I have kept most of my expensive pieces in the safe. Life pretty boring and with all the hype on watches these days I have also reduced my purchases for the pass couple of...  

That's RM at its best

timeless design indeed. Nice environment, cheers, Filip

Which model is this?? I’m not aware of any unpopular early RMs…

this one has all the classic RM features/DNA which drove prices to astronomical levels, no? I’m not an RM expert, so I defer to you.

Haha.. this is the 5

It is unpopular in comparison to the 010, 11 series and 55 etc.. Ppl tend to prefer bigger watches hence collector much prefer 010.. however personally I like the 5’s slim bezel profile. I find it more delicate and elegant in comparison. I attached a phot...
