RM16
I am thinking about letting go of my RM 16 I am wondering what our forum members think of this model? A keeper?
Personally I find this watch very comfortable on the wrist n super wearable even with the oversized casing.
Love to hear your thoughts!
PS I am considering replacing this with a Arabic numeral dial more suiting for the RM hi tech theme.
Cheers!
James.

I think that when we feel we want to change, it is good to think about it
RMs are very comfortable and indeed thinner RMs like the RM033 or your RM16 (and recently the RM067) are fantastic to wear. You have certainly tried a few other references and this is the good way to do it imho. About Roman vs Arabic numerals, it depends ...
Mark, thank you for your feedback..
Yes for me, the 33 (which I own too) certainly looks great with the Roman. I too find the Arabic numeral a bit empty for the 33 design. However, it maybe not the case with the 16. I find the Roman a tad messy in the square casing. Hence I am think about f...
Indeed, this wearing comfort is awsome
You're right, the RM033 and RM016 dials are not working the same way with each type of numerals and I don't think I've seen a Roman numerals RM016 version in the metal (I don't know that reference well). Keep us informed Best, Mark
Keep the unusual RM 016.
I tried often but prefer the more robust 028 I own. But if I want to buy a more classy watch I would take the 016 (perhaps Marcus version)
Yes ..
and I have see the tried on that Marcus rm16 in 18KWG, in person it looks absolutely sick!! The red is so sharp n loud! I love it! Then again with a limited 3 pcs... I don't think I will get a chance. I might have to settle for the normal rm16 certainly g...
Either way
I think the 016 is nice. I recently saw the OC version with pink Arabic numerals and it looks awesome too. Arabic and Roman numerals on the 016 make the watch look a bit different but imho the Arabic numerals generally make the watch "louder" and Roman mo...
