The solution!
If your Rimowa suitcase is made from plastic (polycarbonate), not aluminium, then you don't need to don't freak out. Here's what you can do. If the zippers tags connecting to the lock are plastic, simply cut the plastic zipper tags with a pair of sharp scissors. If the tags are metal, remove them with a pair of pliers. Then pull open the zip with your fingers. Remove your clothes and items
I know I'm replying to a three-year-old post but this sounds like a terrible idea.

(I would go with the other suggestion posted by Cristian Castillo S; just set the combination to what you thought it was, apply pressure as thought you were opening the lock and wiggle each combination wheel up and down one number at a time. It's very likely the setting is off ever-so slightly, and only one number has slipped out of place.)
