I'm biased because nanotechnology is my field, but I think that owning such a high tech material can be interesting and different from the usual metal cases, if you have the budget for it.
Hi RM Forum, I recently acquired a pre-owned discontinued RM035 with Aluminum-Magnesium case. The decision was inspired by a few detailed and passionate reviews on this forum on the RM035 from a few years ago (thank you!). I understand from an RM boutique...
First, because you won't be given the original case back. What are they afraid of, that you could sell it? Second, despite any declaration, an alloy is still better than glued/heated carbon (oversimplification) Just my 2 cents
Let's forget the price, which i bet is close to insanely high😅 But it's a Richard Mille, It can't come cheap. The weight is the only feature perceivable, it's neither an airplane nor a race car where those properties might make the difference.

Apologies I should change the topic to "pros and cons of Al-Mg alloys vs carbon" topic. RM clarified that the carbon nano tube case (or case back) replacement is only available for early generation / prototype / initial batches of RM035 which had some iss...
