Buying a 500k watch that look like a 150$ Diesel watch, now thats revolutionary

[joesmith]

nothing beats a casio... I had one when I was little and let me tell you if a watch can last 5 years on a little kid that is a very durable watch!!!

The most overpriced brand i ever seen never get the hype and never will.

[TheDirle]

I giggled when you mentioned Tag-Heuer. Anyway, the value of any RM is 75-80% hype. The watches themselves are interesting with the innovative use of newer materials, but hardly to the tune of several million dollars.

I bought mine from China for $60. It works and looks awesome

$2, 000, 000 of ugliness only the "Elite" class can appreciate.

[Wargasm]

They are great watches. I liked mine so well I bought one for my cat. I couldn’t adjust the band enough for it to fit him very well. So I called Richard and asked if he could resize the band for my cat. He said he could for $226K. So I just put the watch on my cats neck. He loves it.

They just scream "new money".
I can see a hip hop artist or pro basketballer spending their first paycheck on something like this.

I'm impressed by the technical aspects of the watches, but that doesn't excuse their hideous looks and obscene prices.

[michaelb]

Imagine paying a $1, 000, 000 just for:
- status symbol
- to show off
- to live for the likes
- to live for other peoples acceptance of you

Meanwhile some people have to wear the same $20 shoes for years and keep fixing it coz they can’t afford a second pair

What a world!

If i could afford an expensive watch, Patek is a watch i really want

[ConanOG]

I heard about the brand from the ex F1 driver Felipe Massa who told people he contacted RM in the first years of the company to get a sponsorship but because the RM was only starting they didn't had the money. Because Massa and his manager really liked the brand RM made a deal that in the first year of partnership they would only give him one of their best watches, RM 006 at that time, and since then Massa was wearing their watches, yes even the very expensive ones, in every single race he had in F1.

Even the most popular watch collectors didn't know what exactly make the RM become so expensive but they collect them in anyway !

[mr.thinkpositive]

Some lucky people bought RM’s when they first came out and were only about $35, 000 for the basic models around 2001-2006. Models like the RM005 & RM010 are much less busy looking than the newer ones and are quite nice. Those same watches are worth 4-5 times that amount now. Very nice pieces! And great investments! Excellent video btw!

Personally I’d take a Rolex day date over any RM - platinum day date to be precise 😊

Richard mille is essentially a well dressed G Shock. No thank you.

[mariosimas]

to me it seems that RM produces the same watch all over

[Psysso]

RM is basically a rich mans Gshock, its cool but after youre over 25 you tend to look at other countless more sophisticated choices. In 30 years this watch will loose most of its value, and its definitely not something youll be passing on for generations.

If I had a Richard Mille, I'd wear it with a Disney themed T-shirt from Mothercare and some hearts and rainbow jewelry from Claire's.

Because the rich and powerful use them to launder money.
