My RM11 RG - Power Reserve
Hi All,
Im new to the RM page as I recently acquired my grail - an RM11 RG from a good friend who sold it to me to upgrade to another RM.
I wanted to check if anyone here has measured the power reserve personally.
Reason why im asking because I didn't wear the watch for about a day or so and it stopped. I typically don't active when I wear it so I assume it wasn't wound fully. I also checked the heartbeat of the watch in a few different positions and it averages about +/- 5 secs a day.
I am wondering if its an issue with the barrel? or maybe the oscillating weight (currently at the middle notch) adjustment setting needs to be set to a higher sensitivity?
Looking forward to your feedback and advice.
Thanks,
Nop

Nop, I don't have...
Nop, I don't have an RM, but a friend of mine has several and they all have fairly short running time - shorter than RM spec. Best wishes, Mike On Sep 24, 2014, at 19:30, richardmille watchprosite < richardmill[Email address suppressed for privacy] >...
How long.........
........had you been wearing it before you took it off? In my experience it takes nearly a full day to get to full wind and will then last 40-45 hours.
Thanks for the feedback
40-45 hours sounds about right then. Because I remember taking it off at 9pm on Tuesday and I checked it stop on Thursday 4.30am, assuming it was about 80% wound up. thanks all !
Power Reserve
so 40-45 hours power reserve is a normal thing? since I just got my watch back from a overhaul service, and it only gave me 41 hours power reserve when its fully worn for two days. What are the thoughts for this case? should I send it in back to service a...
If you aren't going to wear it every day......
........then put it on a winder. I certainly wouldn't send it back if the power was running down after 41 hours.
Is it normal?
I wasn't going to wear it everyday, I mean I just wanted to know if its a normal thing or isn't since its about 15 hours less from the spec (since I just got it back from service for overhaul) Does other RM watches always have power reserve below the spec...
I am ashamed to say......
......that I have never measured it on any of the RMs I have owned or currently own.
It's normal just enjoy the watch in the best of health
it gets worrying if it stops while ur wearing it
