RM 30-01 automatic

The new work “Controlled Energy” will be released in 2023. Richard Mille RM 30-01 Automatic Detachable Rotor The RM 30-01 automatic trip-out rotor is new for 2023 from Richard Mille. The RM 30-01 automatic clutch rotor expresses a strong emotion of the brand’s technical prowess. The attention to detail on the twin dials combining titanium and sapphire give this watch a refined tone.

Like its predecessor, this model also benefits from the aesthetic fusion and technological advancements incorporated into the new design. However, the RM 30-01 does not neglect to inherit them, but reinforces their merits with a reinterpreted skeleton design and helps to establish a graphic balance. Grade 5 titanium cleats and main plate combine parallel sections to create perspective and depth. Eliminating the curves of the previous model, a diamond-based geometry emerged, adding dynamic energy to the viewing display. The power reserve, winding and function selector indicators are arranged in an unprecedented way and highlighted in color. replica cheap watch

Furthermore, the complication of the new RMAR2 automatic movement does not preclude aesthetic constraints in order to optimize ergonomics and usability. Components such as the function selector cam and the oversized date disc represent this dynamic engraving.

When the power reserve reaches 55 hours, the RM 30-01’s variable moment of inertia oscillating weight automatically disengages from the winding mechanism to eliminate excess tension associated with winding. This allows the RMAR2 movement to run with optimum barrel torque and a constant torque/power ratio. When the energy starts to run out and the power reserve is reduced to 40 hours, the oscillating weight re-engages and winds the barrel. It also allows the rotor to run while providing excellent timekeeping performance. The clutch engagement indicator at 11 o’clock indicates whether the rotor is engaged (open) or loose (closed).

The function selector is convenient for everyday life, just press the button at 2 o’clock to select the desired mode. An indicator above the large date on the dial lets you know which function is selected. W is for winding, D is for date correction, and H is for pointer setting. perfect luxury watch

Available in two styles, both feature a sculptural tonneau-shaped case. One has a 5N red gold caseback and bezel with a middle in grade 5 titanium, while the other is made entirely of this hypoallergenic, corrosion- and impact-resistant material. As light as possible (96 grams including the strap) and ergonomically designed, this model stands out for its comfort on the wrist. The grade 5 titanium watch, as well as the grade 5 titanium and 5N red gold models, are beautiful cases with the same finishes (satin, polished, etc.). In both versions, the tight lines and complex geometry of the case make it one of the most difficult cases to develop and manufacture in the entire watchmaking industry. The RM 30-01 is the result of artistic and technical research and development by Richard Mille.

A true synthesis of the collection’s identity, the RM 30-01 faithfully reproduces the key values of Richard Mille: ergonomics, pure lines and exceptional finishes. The RM 30-01 automatic clutch oscillating weight not only embodies the essence of the brand, but also embodies the aesthetic exploration of Richard Mille for more than 20 years.

Richard Mille RM 53-01 Tourbillon Pablo Mac Donough: Resistant to hammering!

This year, Richard Mille continues its collaboration with polo player Pablo Mac Donough with the RM 53-01 Pablo Mac Donough Tourbillon, which houses a foolproof horological mechanical movement in a black carbon TPT case. Pure Richard Mille for this masculine and ultra-sporty timepiece.

Richard Mille was a loyal friend. Its ambassadors are not just the men and women who wear their watches for photographs during a certain season. These are real, lasting collaborations. Rafael Nadal, Felipe Massa, Sebastien Ogier, Bubba Watson and Pablo Mack · Dono (Pablo Mac Donough) is not just an ambassador, before becoming the brand image of Richard Mille (Richard Mille), they are all relatives of Richard.

The last watch to emerge from these watchmaking and sporting friendships? RM 53-01 Pablo MacDonough Tourbillon. There is a long story between polo and watchmaking… It begins with Jaeger-LeCoultre and its famous Reverso watch, whose famous reversing case was designed at the time to protect the “glass within glass” “Save from the watches worn by athletes in competitions… the rest of the story will continue with Piaget and its famous Polo watch, and then Hublot and its Infinity Limited series.

Richard Mille has been Pablo Mac Donough’s partner since 2010. This man is literally one of the best polo players in the world. Back then, during their first collaboration, Richard Mille envisioned a copy men watch with a “caparison” case that would protect the watch during a polo match, which can be particularly violent!

This new watch from Richard Mille has been designed in the same spirit. Offers polo players the possibility to wear their watches during matches! But, as you can imagine, polo is one of the most demanding sports on a tourbillon movement (we advise all sane watch lovers not to wear their favorite watch during games). With or without swirls! ).

Sudden turns, violent swings, violent collisions between horse and rider: so much power goes well beyond the norm usually encountered in other sports. Polo, the “king of sports”, is a very elegant but also very physical game.

It’s not a miracle that one of polo’s greatest champions is able to wear a watch, and it’s a tourbillon, fully operational, it’s the product of years of research and research into the performance’s resistance in the face of violent conflict. As experts in the field, the brand designed the RM 53-01 around one goal: to make it extremely durable while exalting its performance.

“Polo is a dangerous game, with shocks and impacts. It’s a game of great grace but also very physical,” explains Richard Mille. Pablo has broken bones many times during his career. Considering this At one point, I asked our team to design a best fashion watch that could withstand the various shocks during a polo match, but the movement had to be visible”.

Realizing that standard crystal could not provide the necessary resistance against the blows of a mallet, the brand’s engineers collaborated with Stettler, a great specialist in the field of sapphire crystal, inspired by the practice of laminated glass for automotive production. The use of this crystal mirror composed of two sapphire crystal mirrors and polyethylene film is the first time in the watchmaking industry. By the way, same as RM…

In the face of the strong shock wave from the impact of the mallet, the glass will crack, but not crack. The glass is treated with UV protection and anti-reflection to protect it from the external environment and is an exclusive patent of Richard Mille.

The case is machined from carbon TPT with serrations of a reinforced structure, an armored case with an astonishing and almost unalterable resistance. Recognized for its excellent resistance to microfractures and microcracks, this material is increasingly used by RM.

Any enemy with whirlwind motion (beyond the gravitational effects it compensates for) is a shock. What is Richard Mille’s solution? Movement suspended by cables. The atypical architecture of the building required the development of two slabs. The first, called the peripheral, is attached to the frame and supports the tensioning mechanism. The second, called the central, is connected to the peripheral plate by cables and contains all the movement’s gear trains as well as the winding mechanism.

The central plate, like a spider in the middle of a spider’s web, rests on 2 braided steel cables with a diameter of 0.27mm. These cables (see photo below) are woven into a three-dimensional structure through 10 pulleys, connected to 4 tensioners. The watchmaker himself puts the cables in tension by turning a splined screw in the center of each tensioner. Richard Mille copy

By ensuring its constant tension, “this pulley system guarantees a perfect balance of the whole. The grade 5 titanium used in the suspended movement and its components (bridges and double bridges) increases rigidity while ensuring a very smooth running of the gear train and optimal shock absorption,” the brand said in its press release.

Richard Mille RM 11-03 Automatic Flyback Chronograph

The RM 011, an integral part of the Richard Mille collection since 2007, bids farewell and makes way for the new RM 11-03 Automatic Flyback Chronograph.

The main focus of Richard Mille was the three-dimensional quality of the new automatic movement RMAC3 and the visual realization of its complications. A glossy beveled surround marking the split times adds depth to the flyback chronograph’s colored counters and seconds display.

This spatial effect is further enhanced by the satin-finished grade 5 titanium upper bridge, which contrasts with the PVD-coated titanium of the movement. This inevitably draws the eye across the dial, from the annual calendar and its oversized date to the 12-hour counter and flyback chronograph.best watches for men

The labyrinth continues on the back of the movement: the satin-finished and PVD-coated lower bridge showcases the twin barrels and the new variable-geometry grade 5 titanium rotor, whose design is inspired by aerodynamic elements from Formula 1 . This technical solution, unique to Richard Mille, allows the self-winding mechanism to adapt to the wearer’s activity level by adjusting the moment of inertia of the oscillating weight using chamfered and shot-peened 18-carat white gold winglets. The oscillating weight, made of satin-finished and PVD-coated grade 5 titanium, is adjustable in six positions and is mounted on ceramic ball bearings.

But the new automatic movement RMAC3 also showed real power. Thanks to the use of grade 5 titanium in the bridges and bridges, the entire flyback chronograph movement has been optimized in terms of gear train functionality and stability. The two barrels installed in parallel ensure constant power transmission and a power reserve of approximately 55 hours. The 4 Hz variable torque balance is extremely shock resistant and allows finer adjustments than traditional balances. nice replica watches

The three-piece tonneau-shaped case has also been revised. The designers have gently modernized its shape without distorting it, giving it a more athletic and dynamic character.

The highest level of craftsmanship and an enormous investment of time were required to achieve the level of ergonomics and sophistication that characterize this case – unparalleled in the world of haute horlogerie. With a lot of patience and skill, the surfaces are satin-finished and chamfered entirely by hand. Originally used on the RM 27-01 Rafael Nadal, this silhouette now characterizes all Richard Mille sports watches. Not only does it differentiate them from the lifestyle models in the series, but it also reinforces their structural integrity.

The RM 11-03 is reminiscent of motorsport with numerous details.
The Grade 5 titanium crown is inspired by the design of racing rims and tire treads. The knurled buttons of the same material are inspired by pedal surfaces, and their caps are made from a material as ubiquitous in Formula 1 as titanium: NTPT carbon. replica watches online shop

As with Richard Mille, the entire mechanism can be admired through the anti-reflective coated sapphire crystal, revealing the caliber. The case is available in titanium, rose gold or white gold and is held together by 20 spline screws in grade 5 titanium. The RM 11-03 Flyback Chronograph is a sporty watch that proudly embraces the brand’s new aesthetic, inspired by motorsport. The model will be officially unveiled on September 4th as part of the third edition of the “Chantilly Arts & Elégance Richard Mille”.

TECHNICAL FEATURES OF THE RICHARD MILLE CALIBER RM 11-03 AUTOMATIC FLYBACK CHRONOGRAPH

Movement: CALIBER RMAC3, self-winding skeleton movement with variable geometry rotor, hours, minutes, seconds, flyback chronograph, 60-minute countdown at 9 o’clock, 12-hour totalizer, oversized date and month display.

Dimensions: 49.94 x 44.50 x 16.15 mm
Power reserve: Approx. 55 hours (±10%). The effective power reserve depends on how often the chronograph function is used.replica skeleton watches

Plates and bridges: Plates and bridges are made of grade 5 titanium. This biocompatible, extremely corrosion-resistant and very strong alloy allows the gear train to function optimally. The alloy is composed of 90% titanium, 6% aluminum and 4% vanadium. This connection increases the mechanical properties of the material and is therefore commonly used in the aerospace and automotive industries. The circuit board of the RMAC3 movement is optimized for the ideal weight/strength ratio.

Flyback Chronograph: A pusher between the 4 and 5 o’clock positions allows the running chronograph second hand to be reset without first stopping the mechanism. This feature was originally developed for pilots to avoid the inevitable loss of time (and precision) when stopping, resetting and starting the chronograph when passing landmarks. When the chronograph function is activated, the chronograph counters at 6 o’clock and 9 o’clock display the elapsed hours and minutes, while the central hand counts the seconds.

Use: The user can start or stop the chronograph function with the pusher between 1 o’clock and 2 o’clock. The flyback function for zeroing can be operated at any time using the pusher between 4 o’clock and 5 o’clock. replica Urwerk Watches

Richard Mille RM038

Angus Davies reviews the Richard Mille RM038, a watch built for recent Augusta Masters winner Bubba Watson.

Bubba Watson wins the Augusta Masters.

At 6-foot-3, he’s a colossus in size and hits the ball with prodigious power, leading the PGA Tour in driving distance with an average of 313.1 yards.

Bubba was a refreshing change from the average golfer on the PGA Tour. He is self-taught and has developed his own very personal style.

Many golfers spend years training with coaches, holding the club in a certain way and honing their swing through video analysis, but not Bubba.

Wearing an all-white outfit with pink detailing, he used a pink driver to support the charity. On his website, Bubba states that “helping these charities, and more importantly, the families involved, means more than winning a golf tournament”. I suspect this is a mantra embraced by many sports coaches.

Bubba is approachable and recounts his humble origins and growing up in Baghdad, Florida. He opened up about his emotions, tearing up and hugging his mother affectionately as he celebrated his victory at the Masters.

During his playoff with Louis Osterhuizen during the Masters, his ball landed in the woods. The bushes should have thwarted his ambitions, thwarted his ambitions. However, Bubba said that after hitting the ball with such ferocity, golf wisdom would suggest imminent failure, “It’s just a crazy shot I see in my head.” The ball landed on the green. This is not one to follow the rules. copy watches for sale

So it’s no surprise that he wears an unconventional watch, the Richard Mille RM 038.

dial
The dial is unlike any other brand of watch. The design language of Richard Mille watches is inspired by Formula 1. Skeletonized hour and minute hands are one of the few details faithful to orthodox horology.

The bridge is shaped like an anti-roll bar and spans the dial. They are not made of untreated silver and do not have the Côtes de Genève pattern in line with other high-end timepieces on the market. Richard Mille never went with the flow.

The bridges, bridges and balance cock are all made of grade 5 titanium and are clearly visible through the sapphire crystal mounted on the front and back of the case. This isn’t horological porn designed just to tease, and it has its merits in the choice of materials used. Grade 5 titanium is lightweight, ensuring it won’t weigh down on the wearer. Bubba Watson, Felipe Massa and Rafael Nadal have all highlighted this key advantage, all of whom choose to wear Richard Mille watches while practicing their chosen sports.

The wearer can appreciate the spectacle of horological craftsmanship, as the tourbillon cage rotates to resist the effects of gravity. But unlike some tourbillons that require care to ensure their longevity, Richard Mille has given its models a solid structure that makes them extremely wear-resistant.

case
Richard Mille never seeks expediency when designing watches, and the case design perfectly reflects this. The three-plan case is made up of three key elements; top, sides, and bottom. The sides of the case are perfectly contoured, with the top and bottom perfectly aligned to keep out dust or moisture that could damage the precious work inside.

Two Nitrile O-rings mounted on the sides and front and back of the case further reduce the risk of compromising water resistance. fake watches for sale

The case is the culmination of countless machine processes, resulting in the striking silhouette synonymous with this captivating brand. Twelve grade 5 titanium spline screws and 316L stainless steel wear washers snap together like clamshells to protect the internal structure from potential damage.

The most striking thing about the case is the color, a lighter shade of whiter. Made of extremely strong WE54 magnesium, an electric plasma oxidation treatment called Miarox® provides the unique shade. It is this treatment, commonly used in the aerospace, automotive and medical sectors, that gives the case its scratch and corrosion resistance.

sports
Tourbillons are one of the most complex complications, often heavier and more delicate than normal. However, this is no ordinary sport. It’s strong and light.

The lightweight of the rotating barrel increases its speed and its accuracy by default.

The choice of movement material is eclectic, not seeking change, but approaching the watch from different perspectives. The results are amazing.

The beauty of the RM038 Tourbillon movement is the ability to see through the sapphire crystal the hard work of the gears and cogs. The movement is delivered in a unique form and made of high-tech materials.

Richard Mille doesn’t skimp on the details for its clients. This is a great example of polished pivots, polished sinks and beveled polished steel components.

Richard Mille did not follow accepted norms, copied other masters, and did not follow the herd. The RM 038 is a refreshing change from the approach taken by many watchmakers, who some feel seem to offer homogeneous watches that lack originality.

Richard Mille chose a unique course for the RM 038, a bit like the way Bubba Watson plays golf.

Bubba succeeded in the green belt of Augusta, while Richard Mille mastered the green valley of Swiss watchmaking with the innovative RM 038. buy watches online

Richard Mille: Two new sports versions of the RM 67-01

It is at the London Olympic Stadium, during the World Athletics Championships, that the public will be able to discover Richard Mille’s new creations on the wrists of Wayde Van Niekerk and Mutaz Essa Barshim: RM 67-02 Sprint and RM 67-02 High Jump, RM 67-01 sports version.

Olympic gold medalist and world record holder in the 400m and 300m, multidisciplinary athlete Wayde van Niekerk is the only person to run the 100m in under 10 seconds, the 200m in under 20 seconds, the 300m in under 31 seconds and the The athlete who ran the 400 meters in less than 44 seconds. At his side we will find Richard Mille’s new partner, the high jump specialist Mutaz Essa Barshim. The two-time Olympic medalist, Dohanai has produced four of the world’s best performances in the past five years, proving he has all the makings to become the sport’s record holder, 24 years after Javier Sotomayor.

The desire to create a watch that fits the athlete like a second skin, allowing a kind of “symbiosis” between them, is the guiding philosophy behind this new development.

Starting with the idea of injecting a sporty vibe into the RM 67-01, where its lightness, sophistication and ergonomics fit perfectly, the Richard Mille team redesigned its lines to reflect its sporty character. The appearance of the iconic four jagged appearances of the brand’s sports watches also contributes to the reinforcement of the structure.

The case features Carbon TPT® and Quartz TPT®, Richard Mille’s exclusive composite material for exceptional shock resistance. The low thickness of the bezel/middle/back at 7.80 mm does not alter in any way their physical characteristics or ability to handle all situations of high-level athletic practice.

The manufacture of Quartz TPT® consists in inserting layers of silica fibers with a maximum thickness of 40 microns. Deposited by a specific machine that changes the direction of the fibers between the two layers by 45°, they are impregnated with three new purple resins for the Qatari Mutaz RM 67-02 High Jump and green and yellow resins for the South RM 67-02 Sprint African Wade. The Carbon TPT® carbon fiber used for the case comes from the same process, but from carbon wire.

The taut lines of the carbon fiber TPT® and white gold oscillating weight, bridges and DLC-treated grade 5 titanium plates of the new ultra-thin in-house movement CRMA7 seem to be under tension, firmly emphasizing the sporty nature of this watch. A minimum of two hours of machining allowed extreme skeletonization of the board to be obtained, ending hundreds of hours of machine programming and tuning.

All gear trains have been optimized with specific profiled toothing, creating a 20° pressure angle for an excellent transmission of power from the barrel to the variable inertia balance, guaranteeing a constant rate of 50 hours. .

The satin-brushed beveled hands and clean lines of the CRMA7 movement exude a strong sense of power.
The lines of the dial, in harmony with those of the movement, are machined from a titanium plate just 4/10 mm thick. Treated black DLC, then hand painted in the colors of the two athletes’ flags.

To complete the wearability of its RM 67-02, Richard Mille has added a new comfort strap. One-piece and non-slip, its enhanced elasticity allows it to fit perfectly around the wrist, allowing it to adapt to various morphologies. The brand’s lightest strap ever, reducing the weight of the RM 67-02 to just 32 grams. The RM 67-02 is thus positioned as the lightest automatic watch in the Richard Mille collection.

Mutaz, Wayde and Yohan Blake will be the well-deserved representatives of Richard Mille in London. We have assured them of our full support for these World Championships and we wish them greatness.

Women Influenced: Richard Mille Introduces RM 07-04 Automatic Sport

To help launch its first women’s sports watch, the brand enlisted six inspirational athletes, including Aurora Straus, Margot Laffite, Nelly Korda, Nafi Thiam, Yuliya Levchenko and Ester Ledecká.

I don’t necessarily believe in the gender of the clock. I think very similarly as Suzanne Wong, editor and co-founder of Watch Femme, once said: “What is a women’s watch? It’s a woman’s watch.”

Sometimes I want to wear a chunky timepiece, and other times, I like a traditional “shrink and pink” ladies’ watch. I suspect many people would also like the smaller and brighter option. That’s why I’m ecstatic about Richard Mille’s new RM 07-04 Automatic Sport, a collection of six small and colorful timepieces.

let’s see!

One of the things I appreciate about Richard Mille is that the brand reaches out to female athletes and understands their need for a sports discount replica watches. Yes, Richard Mille has always been a cooperative company. But to launch the RM 07-04 Automatic Sport – its first women’s sports watch – the brand went a step further, partnering with six inspirational and influential athletes to share their experiences to help develop and define the pieces properties.

Specifically, the brand reached out to two motorsport legends – Aurora Strauss and Margot Laffite – as well as three-time Olympic ski gold medalist Ester Ledecká, top golfer Nelly Korda, and two track stars Yuliya Levchenko and Nafi Thiam . Based on their input, Richard Mills adapted these new models to meet the needs of its partners.

“Our partners are passionate individuals who are willing to break the mold of their respective disciplines to succeed,” Amanda Mille, director of brand and partnerships, said in a release. “Our relationship is built on respect, communication, trust and mutual admiration. These are the keys to our development. They help us to be perfect.”

The result is very light (only 36 grams including the strap) and ergonomic (the tonneau-shaped case measures 30.50 x 44.95 x 10.35mm). So no matter what kind of sport you play, you don’t need to worry about straining your wrists. women’s sports watch

Variety is the spice of life
Not all women have the same needs. According to Amanda Mille, Thiam, Ledecká and Levchenko needed a lighter. And Korda, Straus and Laffite wanted something more general.

Of course, since they come from Richard Mille, these watches are already visually striking. But to give the wearer even more options, the RM 07-04 Automatic Sport is available in six colours: black for the Carbon TPT model, and dark blue, cream, green, fuchsia and salmon pink for the Quartz TPT case.

For female lovers, the most influential is Haute Horlogerie. Each of these versions is equipped with a highly shock-resistant skeletonized in-house CRMA8 caliber automatic movement, meaning it is a sports watch that you can actually wear while exercising. Furthermore, this skeletonized display is fully integrated into the movement, allowing the wearer to appreciate the inner workings of the mechanism.

One of the most impressive achievements of the RM 07-04 Automatic Sport is the flange (the part of the case that supports the movement). Here, it works as if it were part of the movement.

The rest of the movement is no walk in the park, either. Salvador Arbona, technical director of movements at cheap Richard Mille, said, “We had to solve a triple technical challenge: the extreme skeletonization, the integration of the case into the movement, and the addition of the reverse function selector.”

RICHARD MILLE launches a new sports watch – RM 07-04 self-winding sports watch

RICHARD MILLE is proud to be a brand with many outstanding male and female athletes as brand friends. The members who join the family of best friends have always been the core of the brand’s continuous breakthrough of limitations and courage.

To celebrate the launch of the first women’s sports watch-the RM 07-04 automatic winding sports watch, RICHARD MILLE invited six inspiring and influential female athletes: racing driver Aurora Straus, French racing driver and navigator Margot Laffite, golfer Nelly Korda, heptathlete Nafi Thiam, high jumper Yuliya Levchenko and snowboarder Ester Ledecká share their personal experiences to develop and interpret the characteristics of this watch.

Two representatives of motor sports, a world’s second-ranked golfer, two dazzling stars in track and field, and a three-time Olympic gold medalist, these six friends of the Richard Mille brand proudly wear the new RM Six watches in the 07-04 Automatic Movement Collection.

The development of the RM 07-04 self-winding sports watch took three years before and after, during which many difficulties were overcome. This self-made skeletonized automatic movement has a small and compact structure. While ensuring impact resistance, it perfectly integrates the case with the movement and allows a clear view of the inner workings of the watch.

One of the notable parts is the scale ring, which the brand considers to be designed as one with the movement. At first glance, the scale circle is integrated with the movement, and the overall structure is balanced by the use of titanium alloy elements across the surface and the integration of the hollow display window of the function selector. Such a bold structural design visually creates an extraordinary sense of dynamism.

The launch of this series of six watches symbolizes RICHARD MILLE’s relentless pursuit of ultimate versatility and continuity of works in the ever-growing field of ladies’ watches. As a result, elegance and sophistication are perfectly combined with ultra-high performance and sports prowess.

Salvador Arbona, technical director of the movement, explained: “In the process we had to solve three technical challenges: the extreme skeletonization, the integration of the case and the movement, and the inverted function selector.” richard mille bubba watson replica

Richard Mille presents the RM 65-01 automatic split-seconds chronograph

Richard Mille fake has built its brand by combining highly sophisticated micromechanics with ultra-modern materials from the automotive and aerospace industries, and its latest chronograph-equipped timepiece, the RM 65-01 Automatic Two-Second The split-seconds chronograph continues this tradition. It is also, the company claims, “the most complicated timepiece ever produced in the workshop of Richard Mille.”

About five years in development, designed by engineers at Richard Mille in collaboration with movement craftsmen at Vaucher Manufacture Fleurier (Parmigiani’s fame, among other horological accolades), the new movement inside the RM 65-01 boasts a high-frequency, variable-in Inertial balance wheel oscillating at an astonishing rate of 36,600 vibrations per hour (5 Hz). As a result, its integrated split-seconds chronograph features ultra-precise stopwatch calculations to the nearest 1/10th of a second. Apart from Zenith’s El Primero, few other chronograph movements can achieve this level of precision. The movement’s architecture uses six column wheels and a vertical coupler. Visible through the base is its mechanical “brain” resting on a grade 5 titanium chassis supported by bridges of the same material,

Filling the watch’s power reserve is achieved through a new innovative feature, a patented rapid-winding mechanism activated by a pusher at 8 o’clock on the tonneau-shaped carbon fiber TPT case. Pressing this button 125 times fully winds the movement and is designed to maintain optimal torque when worn on the wrist. As with previous Richard Mille timepieces, the rotor offers ‘variable geometry’, meaning that the wearer can adjust its inertia for optimal winding rate according to his activity level. Consisting of no fewer than 600 pieces, the movement passed what Richard Mille considered a “ruthless” battery of tests, including anti-magnetic, water-resistant, shock-resistant and simulated 10-year mechanism aging (where the winding button deployed thousands of times).

Despite its complexity, the RM 65-01 is a best replica watches uk that emphasizes the legibility of all its functions through the clever use of color coding. Yellow is used for the chronograph elements – the hour and minute hands, the hour numerals and the small seconds at 6 o’clock. Orange marks the central chronograph seconds hand and the 30-minute and 12-hour chronograph subdials at 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock respectively. The winding device is bright red, the date box is green, and the rattrapante hand is blue, which echoes the color of the start button.

The bezel, case and caseback are in Carbon TPT, a material used in racing yachts, Formula 1 cars and aircraft, which Richard Mille introduced to watchmaking in 2013. Crown and pushers are microblasted and satin-finished grade 5 titanium, quick-winding pushers are made of red quartz TPT. Another signature technical feature of Richard Mille copy chronographs: the gearbox-style function selector, which allows the user to switch between traditional winding (W), rapid date adjustment (D) and time setting (H) simply by pressing the crown Switch easily.

Richard Mille RM 60-01 Les Voiles De St Barth

As the main sponsor of the Les Voiles De St Barth Regatta, Richard Mille presents the limited edition RM 60-01 Les Voiles De St Barth. As the event cannot be held this year, the brand reiterates its commitment and intends to donate all proceeds from the sale of RM 60-01 to the St Barth’s initiative. The watch has a 50mm case made of titanium and carbon TPT. It also features a flyback chronograph and annual calendar. With its rotating bezel, this watch can also be used as a compass.

Shell and materials of RM 60-01 Les Voiles De St Barth
Richard Mille opted for a round case measuring 50 x 16.33 mm. It consists of four separate parts, including long titanium lugs. The middle section is also made of titanium, but with a carbon TPT insert. Additionally, 46 titanium screws hold the case together. Richard Mille can also lock the two chronograph pushers by turning the black ring on the crown. However, the UTC button used to increment the second time zone pointer is not affected by this.

The case also has a rotating bezel made of titanium and carbon TPT with four cardinal points, a 360° measuring disc and a 24-hour scale. Together with the red UTC hand, sailors can orient themselves like a compass. First, the red hand is aligned with the sun. Then turn the bezel so that the hands correspond to the current hour in local time. The correct north, east, west and south directions are now displayed to the wearer.

The dial of the Richard Mille RM 60-01 Les Voiles De St Barth is made of sapphire crystal, thus providing a view of the mechanism. Additionally, the manufacturer has placed a turquoise-colored flange with dotted indexes around the dial. Two large hands with luminous material indicate the time. There is also a small seconds hand with a yellow hand at 3 o’clock. The fake watches for sale has an annual calendar that distinguishes 30-day and 31-day months. To this end, there is an extra-large date window at 12 o’clock, and the current month is displayed between 4 o’clock and 5 o’clock.

The time measurement of the flyback chronograph is displayed on the countdown subdial at 9 o’clock. Here, the hands are replaced by a disc that can be used to read the elapsed minutes and the remaining time of the hour. In addition, there is a 24-hour totalizer at 6 o’clock.

Movement RMAC2
The Manufacur movement RMAC2 inside the Richard Mille RM 60-01 Les Voiles De St Barth is visible through the sapphire crystal caseback. It also offers a 55-hour power reserve provided by two barrels. The winding rotor has a system that adjusts its geometry according to the wearer’s activity level. Watchmakers believe this will optimize the performance of the winding mechanism. In addition, Richard Mille uses a free spring balance with screws. The baseplate, bridge and balance cock are all made of PVD-coated grade 5 titanium, making the mechanism more stable.

The Richard Mille RM 60-01 Les Voiles De St Barth comes with a rubber strap with a pin buckle.

Richard Mille RM 88 Automatic Tourbillon Smiley

A yellow circle, two oval eyes, a large upturned mouth… The smiling face drawn by Franklin Loufrani more than 50 years ago has become an established symbol in the collective consciousness. It is the embodiment of positivity, joy and sharing, and has played a major role at the heart of pop culture for generations of creatives. This leadership role was enough for Richard Mille’s team to start creating an emotion-driven copy watch that emphasized all of these values.

mechanism of smile

Around the radiant face of the smiling face, a series of miniature sculptures occupy the movement of the RM 88 Automatic Tourbillon Smiley, forming and transforming a surreal scene full of fun and enthusiasm, demonstrating a true mastery of the infinitely small. As light as it may seem, the creation of this ballet was a technical challenge of the highest order. But the dream is now a reality, with extreme attention to detail and perfection that breathes life into the veritable smile mechanism.

Bottom plate and bridges are made of grade 5 titanium
Micro-sprayed grade 5 titanium with PVD treatment provides great rigidity to the baseplate and bridges, as well as the precise surface flatness that is essential for the perfect operation of the gear train.

Grade 5 titanium is a biocompatible, highly corrosion resistant and very hard alloy that enables the gear train to operate with ease. Richard Mille RM 88 Automatic Tourbillon Smiley

The alloy is 90% grade 5 titanium, 6% aluminum and 4% vanadium. This combination further enhances the mechanical properties of the material, which explains its frequent use in the aerospace, aviation and automotive industries.

The skeletonized baseplates and bridges undergo intensive and complete verification testing to optimize their resistance capabilities.

On top of the Microblasted ARCAP® Additional Motion Work Bridge, a striking gold smiley figure, microblasted and painted, dominates the landscape, complete with polished corners and brushed edges. Featuring a larger iridescent pattern, hand-applied varnished to contrast with anthracite-coloured rhodium-plated, shimmering subtle reflections.

No effort has been spared in finishing, down to the tiniest detail of every element in this display. The cocktail glass consists of four parts, all of which are golden. Umbrellas, olive trees (1.7mm high), fluted straw 0.4mm in diameter – all polished – and the glass itself, whose bottom is micro-blasted to convey its coldness, weighs just 0.4g in total. The gold flowers on it are mirror-polished, and the petals are brushed and rhodium-plated. This pink flamingo, 0.2 gram red gold, has also undergone multiple processes: its wings are polished and its feathers are depicted with the tips of a degussi millstone; its eyes are made with the smallest beading tool in existence ; its base is micro-blasted and the parts depicting grass and water are polished. The component was given a metallic pink PVD coating before the beak was painted black using a brush.

The pursuit of perfection is always there, green PVD ​​coated leaves, pineapple micro-blasted and polished surface, gold cactus micro-blasted, one-by-one polishing to remove PVD ​​​​coating, and sun, micro-blasted gold, polished rays . In keeping with watchmaking tradition, all finishing operations on the RM 88 Smiley are done by hand.

This type of balance wheel represents the pinnacle of innovation. It ensures greater reliability against shocks and during movement assembly or disassembly, resulting in better timekeeping results over time.

Adjuster indices are eliminated and more accurate and repeatable calibration is possible thanks to 4 small adjustable weights located directly on the balance.

ATZ white gold ceramic and red gold case

Such brilliant colors and sets, front and back, deserve an environment that does justice to the composition.

The design and execution of the watch demonstrates a holistic approach to the movement and case concept. Therefore, everything is built to extremely strict specifications. For example, casing rings are no longer used, and the movement is mounted on chassis-mounted rubber (ISO SW) secured by titanium screws.

The bezel and caseback are made of ATZ white ceramic. This is made from a tube of aluminium oxide powder injected under a pressure of nearly 2,000 bar. This high-pressure injection increases stiffness by 20 to 30 percent and minimizes material porosity. ATZ is known for its high scratch resistance (1,400 Vickers) and unchanging color. Second only to diamond, it is one of the hardest materials in the world. Long and difficult machining with diamond tools was required to create this perfect example of the intricately curved bezel and satin finish. Richard Mille RM 88

The strap is made of 18K 5N red gold.

The tripod case is water-resistant to 50 meters, secured by 2 nitrile O-rings. The case is assembled with 12 grade 5 titanium spline screws and 316 L stainless steel wear washers.
