027 Galore...

... at monthly watch nuts Japan branch meeting or drinking. Sure, I have seen 7 or 8 027 at the same place when RM held an annual party, including Messrs. Mille and Nadal. But this small gtg of perhaps 10 to 12 showing three 027s is simply jaw-dropping..... One of the guys just got the certified pre-owned 027 from RM Japan. And RMJ also prepared this wonderful special cake for him. The feast was held in the undisclosed location (a small but nice restaurant, reserved only for us) somewhere in Tokyo.... Again, wow....

Three amigos in front of the 027 cake....

Attention to details.....

Very close-knit community...

.. RM owners are very close including the Boutique. So, if someone has wanted a particular model and someone else decides to sell it (the information quite often comes to RMJ=the Boutique because the owners consult them first), then RMJ is often asked to ...

I think it's wonderful to hear that the RMJ boutique itself supports and even facilitates the transaction of pre-owned watches. Do they do that all models or only the out of production ones? I always got the impression that boutiques frown upon pre-owned ...

It is done via the separate entity...

.. but under the same umbrella. Don't know the scope of the activity, but it makes a lot of sense to promote the circulation of the pre-owned watches in order to sell the new watches (and the "Certified Pre-Owned" should be a big plus). Not everybody can ...
