Hi Michael
I really liked the GP and the dealer offered me the carbon version at the time that I bought my rgrc, unfortunately I could only have one of them. The GP in my opinion is so fugly that it is actually cool but my overriding worry when deciding between that and the rgrc was would it still look cool in ten years time? Only time will tell but I work too hard for my money to take that gamble.
I also love the titanium Michael Schumacher and have had my order confirmed today for this version. I think the MS is like a subdued GP in design and hopefully the grey scale will keep it looking like a classic for many years to come. It's funny though, reading reviews on the Internet re the MS, the overriding opinion seems to be very negative! Still, I can't wait for mine to arrive, the dealer reckons end of next year.
Now that the Michael Schumacher Offshore has launced which racing series is your favorite?
Let's leave out some of the single editions, like the RB1, Singapore F1, Jarno Trulli, and Sebastien Buemi. The Juan Pablo Montoya, Rubens Barrichello, Grand Prix, and Michael Schumacher were all launched with a similar pattern of a base model, second mod...
Juan Pablo Montoya, for me.
I loved a lot all the " racing " hints included on this watch, and loved it also for its look. I am spaaking of the titanium version, here. Best, Nicolas
Excellent, thanks.
I am glad you singled out the titanium version, as it was my favorite of that series too.

Not uncommon for the initial reaction
To be so mixed on a new AP LE. It really leaned towards the negative side years ago when the Montoya was launched and crashed through so many barriers. Now, many of the original naysayers love the watch. I feel the majority of reaction to the MS has been ...
Rubens Barrichello 2 for me
I love both the Titanium and Rose Gold version The detail and the choice of material win it for me Unfortunately it doesn't sit comfortably , at least on my wrist And I recently decided to give it a try on the Carbon GP, as a friend offered his to me It's...
GP!
Light weight.. fits perfect (not too big like the Schumacher) .. great overall design. Forged Carbon looks incredible in different lighting! Looking at the dial is as if I am looking at the dashboard of a Ferrari. Love mine. ...
Actually, if you consider the GP's case build out...
on the left side, it is bigger than the MS. But no arguing on the forged carbon case, certainly lightweight and comfortable to wear. I also think it is the most "F1 themed" of all the examples.
Technically yes..
But after trying them both on.. the Schumi feels and wears significantly bigger in my opinion.
Absolutely like my RB2..
But... Love the Montoya more. *sorry for these quick mobile shots ...
Great wrist shots!
And I like the titanium version strap on it. That adds even more flare to the piece. ENJOY!
Thanks Babka!
Yep, I thought the JPM Ti straps would tone this watch down a little (breaking down some 'focus' onto straps), whilst giving a more sportier/casual feel to it as well. Did play around with RB2's Ti and RG's (croco) straps on it too prior..
The original black stitch I think looks best on the piece.
I swapped straps on my limited pieces too. But then realized I got a warm fuzzy feeling when I left the strap originally fitted. But once again, you wrist shot looks superb! Regards, Steve
True..
Will return to original black-stitch again in awhile. Just that after 8yrs of same, a little change is/feels good I guess.. :) Rgrds
Although the Schumacher in Titanium looks fantastic...
but as a series another vote for the RB2, something very Sci-Fi about it especially in Platinum which I love. S
I used to
LOVE the RB2 Ti. However, with all these new editions of OS, it really doesn't look that special anymore. Moreover, given the sharp edges on the offshore, I totally adore the fored carbon OS like the Alinghi & GP but somehow I never quite dig the choi...
My favorite are as follows
1- Rb2 ti 2- Schumacher 3- Grand Prix 4- Sebastean B 5- J T
