All about the Ralf Tech THE BEAST MANUFACTURE AUTOMATIC EDITION II
A Name That Provokes
The fact that such an Anglo-Saxon name as THE BEAST is used for an entirely French project is no coincidence: it is intended to emphasize the raw, unbroken power that RALF TECH has technically implemented in this model. The name acts as a contrast medium to French precision — making the watch both provocative and elegant at the same time.
Limited Edition with a Statement
Only 77 units of this edition will be built, and this number is deliberately chosen: it not only gives the timepiece exclusivity but also emphasizes its status as a collector's item. Whoever wears one of these watches owns a numbered testament to French craftsmanship, produced in small quantities and strictly controlled.
A Manufacture Movement, 100% French
At its heart beats the RTM001 automatic movement, entirely developed and manufactured in France. Its construction aims to combine power and endurance — right up to the impressive power reserve, which can reach up to 77 hours depending on the usage situation. This caliber is more than just an engine: it is the technical identity of the watch.
Depth Records as a Mark of Quality
The technical tests read like an adventure report: real-world tested deployments down to −3000 meters and static pressure tests down to −4000 meters prove that the watch not only appears massive on the outside but possesses genuine, verifiable depth reserves. This makes it one of the few production watches worldwide that can demonstrate such test values.
Size, Presence, and Ergonomics
With a diameter of 47.7 mm, THE BEAST is not a discreet presence — rather, it makes a clear statement on the wrist, without neglecting wearability: the proportions are designed so that despite its imposing size, an ergonomic fit remains possible, and the watch does not become uncomfortable even during extended use.
Material Choice and Craftsmanship
The quality of craftsmanship is based on professional requirements: robust case materials, precise seals, and manufacturing designed for long-term durability. This technical stringency makes it clear that the watch is not intended as a mere designer object, but as a reliable instrument for extreme conditions.
Elegance Meets Technology on the Strap
As a counterpoint to its massive construction, THE BEAST features a hand-stitched black alligator strap, bringing elegance into the rugged context. This strap is not only visually refined but also ensures comfort and hold — a conscious combination of civilian style and professional robustness.
Who This Watch Is For
THE BEAST is aimed at people who want big things: collectors, adventurers, and all those who appreciate a technical statement on their wrist. It is an expression of a will to perform, a watch that can withstand extreme situations and also impresses as an exclusive collector's item.
Conclusion — Power and Manufacture in One Object
In summary, THE BEAST is a provocative, technically extraordinary statement: French manufacture, extreme pressure resistance, considerable power reserve, and handcrafted details like the alligator strap form a watch that functions equally as an instrument and an emotional object. Those seeking the combination of power and precision will find a clear statement here.

FAQs
About David from WATCHDAVID
My name is David, and I've been deeply involved with watches for many years – not just as a dealer, but primarily as a tester, photographer, and classifier.
Since 2018, I’ve been running WATCHDAVID as an independent watch project featuring reviews, videos, and real-world wearing experiences. Many of the watches you'll find here have been on my own wrist – often for extended periods.
WATCHDAVID.SHOP is intentionally personal. I only sell watches that I genuinely stand behind – no anonymous mass-produced goods, no dropshipping, no "quick trends." Experience, transparency, and honest assessment are paramount to me.
And yes: I am not an anonymous seller. I enjoy good food, sneakers, and photography – and I have a proven weakness for Kinder Chocolate.
If you have any questions or are unsure, feel free to contact me directly. I will respond personally.
Shipping & Insurance
Within Germany and the EU, shipping is free of charge. Shipping is handled by DHL and insured up to €500, €2,500 or €25,000, depending on the watch's value. The watches are therefore always sufficiently insured.
You can find the delivery time in the description and/or below the shopping cart button. Some watches are only produced after an order is placed, while others are brand new and, for example, will only be available in a few weeks (so-called PRE-SALE), etc...
Revocation & Return Shipping
You can revoke your purchase within 14 days of receiving the goods.
I will cover the return shipping costs for you.
IMPORTANT: Do not send the watch back yourself; I will send you the free return label.
To do this, please simply contact me. david@watchdavid.com
It is also important that the watch is unworn and free of any signs of wear. After a successful inspection, I will refund the purchase price to you. The refund will be made using the same payment method you used for the purchase.
Authenticity & Condition of the Watches
I guarantee that all watches I offer are exclusively new, original goods. The watches come directly from the manufacturer and have had no previous owners, unless I explicitly state otherwise (e.g., so-called PHOTO WATCHES).
As an official dealer, I exclusively offer authentic products. These are offered in their original packaging, with a warranty card, etc., just as they are delivered by the dealer. Everything in a so-called Full Set. Some deliver more, some less...
Warranty & Service
All watches purchased from me come with the international manufacturer's warranty, which is usually two years. Some brands even offer a warranty of up to 5 years.
Should a warranty claim arise, I will take care of shipping the watch to the manufacturer or the responsible service center for you and will also organize its return to you. In addition, I will handle all communication with the manufacturer, so you don't have to worry about anything.
Even after the warranty period has expired, I will remain your contact person and support you with service questions or repairs.
No answer received?
You contacted me, via the contact form, about the price proposal, directly by email, chat, but you didn't receive a reply?
Then please check your SPAM folder! Many providers are getting crazier and crazier and are sending more and more to spam.
I usually answer every inquiry within 24 hours at the latest. On weekends, it may take a little longer. As a rule, I reply within a few minutes or hours.
Something can also slip through for me. Or the technology isn't working as it should. Feel free to contact me again. david@watchdavid.com
Mechanics - Sometimes things can go wrong
Before I ship your order, I carefully inspect each watch for visible defects.
However, should a problem arise, such as a defect during transit, please inform me immediately. I will do everything in my power to find a quick solution and ensure your satisfaction.
My goal is to offer you not only high-quality products but also a first-class shopping experience. I look forward to welcoming you as a satisfied customer!
