iTS LANDED??

Post by tazman64 » Wed May 23, 2012 1:48 pm

My new RGM 300 diver and its fricken amazzing!!!!! Rgm has started to use some new packageing which is way better than there old wood box that they used in the past. It comes in a 2 slot (leather or faux leather) box with a spot for extra straps and its lockable. Ive got nothing but great things to say about RGM as a company, they are great to deal with and are out to make you very happy with the whole experience. Here are some quick pics and i may do a mini review later, I hope you like the pics.

Nice package. :shifty:

Love the classic styling and killer case-backs on those. I was just checking them out yesterday after you provided the link to their new pilot watch, Steve. A blue dial would look great alongside that black. :fro:

Thanks guy's, Ive wanted one of these for years but never pulled the trigger until now. Im glad i did because this is one killer watch, i wanted to get it on the cordura strap but its no longer a option, the rubber is the only week thing about this watch IMO. I thought about going with the new blue L.E. but decided to go with the original. Thanks again

Huge congrats! And hey... I like the wood box mine came in! It has the Serpent on the box. :fro:

Like you, I originally thought the rubber strap was a weak point. But after wearing it I came to think of it as a really great strap. Fits me perfectly and I love the way it fits to the case. It is a very durable strap, too.

Getting that strap back on takes a little practice. Once you have it down... the system they use for the spring bars is really pretty cool the way the grooves push the spring bars up and into their holes. Don't try to put it on any other way than the way they advise.... it won't work!

.... and you are right... the folks at RGM rock. :headbang:

Oh yeah... brothers from different mothers.

Thanks T.R. Everytime i saw yours i drooled a lit bit more, so it was time to pull the trigger. I took advantage of there trade-in program, they gave me a good price for my 250 with out seeing it. Unlike the watchseller who offered me all of $1,100 trade value for my breitling SOA (less than a year old) they had the same exact one F.S. at the time for $2,450??? The wooden box was O.K. but i like the new one better, my only problem with the rubber strap is that its hard rubber, hopefully it will soften up with some wear? The watch itself is the perfect dive watch built like a tank!!! The 300 is a keeper, i knew it at first site. I coulnt wait for this to get here so to scratch my itch i watched your videos on the 300, it just made me want it more. LOL!!! From one brother to onther thanks.Steve

I love it. If you don't like the OEM rubber it also looks great on an Isofrane.
