Richard Mille RM 12-01 Tourbillon Rafael Nadal Limited Edition Red Carbon

1 OF 18

The movement that’s housed inside the new RM 12-01 is based on the watchmaker’s RM 012 movement, first introduced in 2006.

The new RM 12-01 borrows this architecture and the unibody baseplate, but this time the baseplate borrows its aesthetic from the chassis of racing cars. The baseplate supports the grade-5 three-dimensional titanium bridges. The skeletonized bridges flank the great wheel at the top of the watch and the tourbillon located at the bottom. The movement can withstand over 5,000 gs and has 70 hours of power reserve.

Housing the movement are four different case options in the brand’s proprietary Thin Ply Technology—black carbon TPT, red quartz TPT, and gold and carbon TPT—all of which are known for their extreme durability. Each version is limited to just 18 pieces.
