So why do I think that the RM014 is the ultimate representation of a luxury sports watch? For a short while at the Perini Navi Cup, the RM014 was mine! I have to say that despite my doubts on first seeing the piece, wearing it and examining the finish and...

The RM014 is an outstanding achievement and I believe the best Richard Mille watch to date. If you order one today, you will already be joining the queue. So who do I know is on the list for a RM014? Well, the owner of the Maltese Falcon, Thomas Perkins, ...  

as a maritime guy and sailor from 12 years old, and I'm mature now! It's past midnight over here, when I see ALL these fabulous pics and details! WOW! I know what I do first thing in the morning. You could as well have posted at the Photoforum! This will ... 

I printed your article, including the pics, puh..! Then an espresso and sat down in the morning sun, and enjoyed your report! I'm hooked Doc

Hi Andrew, Thanks for the report, it's a really wonderful read with outstanding pictures and lots of eye-opening info both about the yachts and the watch. Congrats and thanks sincerely, nicely done! _john

Nice to see how the inspiration for the watch was drawn from. The quest to keep changing and challenging oneself is seen clearly in RM's endeavours. Quite a feat and wonderful report and pictures. Thoroughly enjoyable and dreaming of what the wind felt li... 

Just curious, what did the Sultan have on his wrist? Thanks so much! Allen

has become something that photographers should consider. The Nikon 10.5 DX fisheye with the Nikon Capture software allows the photographer to digitally remaster the photo afterwards to remove the curvature warping and have a 'flat' wide angle photo instea...

Andrew, I've loved these boats for years and you got here! I'm jealous! If you need someone to carry your luggage next year, I'm your man. I agree for the RM014 (though I've not seen it myself). Being more nautical than motor racer myself, I love it. It m...

Your report and photoes are excellent and thorough. It is unique when we can read and see the watch, its creator, and sense the experience of both. Best.

Being able to see the Maltese Falcon in person is a treat let alone actually riding on it! The design of the RM14 is amazing and sure looks stunning on your wrist. Another watch to add to my list when I win the lottery Cheers, Anthony .

Really enjoyed the read and wonderful pictures . Have to say, you gotta love the life with Richard Mille . One day I most certainly hope to ...

BIG thanks, Andrew, for bringing such a unique experience "home" to us on this forum! Cheers, Wootichai

Andrew What a wonderful review - I very much enjoyed the photographs and reading about the event. This evening I happened upon the origin of the term "Maltese Falcon" which I did not know about - apparently in 1530 the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V ceded t... 

Some sailing boats are such beautiful objects.... It's sad this thread sleeps in the forum's depth. Thanks Andrew for the report and for showing the link batween the RM and the boats. Mark

Thanks so much for the report. Looks like FUN

what else can we ask for ... Thanks for great report and great pictures! oliver

That is definetely the ultimate in details, the racing yachts are spectacular. I love the high-tech interest of RM, but this gives the perfect marriage of high tech and superflous details. The yachts are built with such intricate details! To your report -... 

to detail and finish. Sorry to say, that the Perini Navi Cup is every two years! Thanks again Andrew H

I will save up to take a vacation around then. That works as I have a big trip planned for Sep 07 already. Thanks again for sharing, an absolutely wonderful report. Gary

I've been wandering these hallowed fora for about a year, admiring the wonderful job done by Thomas and the crew ! Finally, what made me come out of my stupor and post is this AWESOME article. Thanks Andrew, for the beautiful pictures and story, and for t... 

Thank you for this excellent report. The Maltese Falcon looks like an exceptionally boat. It really does look like it came out of a James Bond film! The RM-014 looks like an amazingly watch as well. I can't wait to see one in person. Ryan

I really liked how you showed the relationship in the design of these beautiful Perini vessels and the gorgeous RM-014! Absolutely great stuff. Unfortunately I can neither afford the watch nor the yacht. Cheers, Valentin
