Inspired by the cutting-edge technologies used in Formula 1 racing cars, legendary Swiss watchmaker Richard Mille has introduced a masterful reinterpretation of the RM 011 featuring a revolutionary material with a unique colour never before used in watchmaking: brown silicon nitride, an exceptionally hard compound. Inside the watch is an automatic calibre RMAC1 equipped with a flyback chronograph function that allows timing operations to be restarted without interrupting the mechanism. The watch also features a variable geometry rotor, exclusive to Richard Mille, which optimises barrel winding by adapting to the wearer’s activities. The RM 011 Brown Silicon Nitride is available from Richard Mille boutiques and authorised retailers worldwide. Pricing and availability details will be announced soon.
