50 straps for 50 owners?

Jun 09, 2015,11:15 AM
 

If they say no, I firstly wonder if this customer request/desire has ever left the boutique. 

How does RM find out about the market demand if the boutique or AD never tells them?

They will surely do 50 straps if they would see a possible demand for 50. However, if there are only 50 owners of your model out there, would all of them really buy one or would you pay for one the price of 50?
If demand is there, RM wouldn't do it, any 3rd party supplier would certainly do.

Did you contact RM maybe directly?

Objectively, denying such a request might be a valid business decision, even though single customers won't necessarily like it, right?

Good luck,
Kolosstt

 By: lykoxx : June 9th, 2015-02:02
Hello everybody, I 'have a RM 005 FM. It's a wonderful watch. But I want Fun !!! I find there is not a lot of choice concerning straps for this watch. Even if it's the same with RM 002 - RM014 - RM 023. For RM 010 and RM 011, the choice is very large with...

They usually provide a large strap choice in exotic materials. Other brands don't provide these kind of straps (they usually have croc material available and not in every colors either). But they certainly don't have a wide offer, if any, of rubber or Kev...

Honestly while I love Richard Mille, reminds me of the lazy boutique staff at AP boutique that just about refused to assist with a request for a new strap and deployant for my AP ROO 25770. My wife went to the boutique to purchase a new strap and deployan...

I guess one could be disappointed. But what about the guy who wants one in purple, then the guy who wants one in orange...blue...you see the issue? Hopefully your quest will bring you a new strap, but don't expect RM to make something just because one per...

I understand, I just say that red rubber is avaible for RM 010 and RM 011. I don't want a colour that doesn't exist. The production of RM002 + RM005 is important I think. So make 50 pièces it's possible. I think a lot of personne could buy red strap it's ...

That color combination is a little too bright for me

But going back to getting a brand to make special order colored straps, I find it's very highly unlikely unless you have a huge group order backing your request. It's not economical to make a single or few colored straps. Rubber straps are made in the mas...
