A complex masterpiece that took five years of research and development: RICHARD MILLE RM 65-01
The newly launched RM 65-01 by RICHARD MILLE is a highly complex sports-style watch, a masterpiece of extraordinary craftsmanship designed for daily wear and various environments, and the latest achievement of the brand’s continuous exploration and innovation. The RM 65-01 self-winding split-second chronograph has been carefully developed for nearly five years, and it can be called the most complicated timepiece produced in the RICHARD MILLE workshop so far.
RM 65-01
Carbon TPT® carbon fiber case, diameter 44.50 x 49.94 mm, hours, minutes, small seconds, date, split-second chronograph, function selector, fast winding device, RMAC4 automatic winding movement, power reserve 60 hours, Sapphire crystal glass mirror and back cover, waterproof to 50 meters, rubber strap.
As a non-limited watch, RM 65-01 shows the ingenuity of watchmaking craftsmanship. The combination of multiple additional functions, unique structure and ultimate aesthetics on this watch fully reflects the technical strength of RICHARD MILLE. In short, only enough patience, superb skills and extraordinary perseverance can complete this difficult challenge in the mechanical watch industry.
This chronograph designed for the 21st century has a high-frequency variable inertia balance wheel with a high frequency of 5 Hz (36,000 vibrations per hour) to ensure more accurate timekeeping for a long time and time the chronograph The accuracy is increased to one tenth of a second. This watch can be called a real “racing car”, equipped with a split-second hand that can read the halfway time. It is also the first time that RICHARD MILLE copy has applied the split-second chronograph function to a self-winding movement.
The RMAC4 self-winding movement contained inside is an integrated movement developed by RICHARD MILLE and Vaucher Manufacture Fleurier in cooperation.
The integrated movement developed in cooperation with Vaucher Manufacture Fleurier is equipped with a six-tooth column wheel structure and a vertical coupling device to ensure its consistent and stable performance. This sophisticated movement is like a commanding mechanical brain, which can be seen through the back cover. It is like a mechanical church, standing on a grade 5 titanium alloy base plate supported by grade 5 titanium alloy bridge plates.
The movement draws power from the rapidly rotating barrel and can maintain the ideal torque transmission power throughout the approximately 60-hour power reserve. The automatic winding device of the barrel also ensures that the watch can maintain the best torque when worn. The oscillating weight of the movement’s variable geometry structure further strengthens the torque state, and can be adjusted according to the wearer’s activity habits to change the inertia of the oscillating weight, thereby improving the efficiency of winding.
On the case back, you can admire the special structure and delicate details of the RMAC4 automatic movement.
In addition, this chronograph has undergone a series of rigorous tests to ensure normal operation under any conditions. These include from simulated shock and drop tests to 10-year accelerated aging tests for all functions, as well as various tests such as water resistance and magnetic field resistance. However, the RICHARD MILLE team did not stop there. In fact, on the powerful, sturdy and impeccable “racing engine” mounted in the lightweight and wear-resistant Carbon TPT® carbon fiber case, they also added several complications to enhance the ergonomics of the watch. degree.
Another milestone is the first self-made patented quick-winding device developed by RICHARD MILLE. Just press 125 times on the button at 8 o’clock, and the barrel can be fully wound and ready for important events at any time. Timing. The engineers of RICHARD MILLE described this practical function as “very interesting”, because this winding method requires very high torque transmission levels, so the development process is particularly difficult.
RM 65-01 uses different colors to mark watch functions and buttons.
In the aging test, this function has withstood thousands of startup tests. This watch is also equipped with a new gearbox design with better performance. You can use the button located in the middle of the crown to select the desired function. Just press the crown, the device can switch between “traditional” manual winding (W), semi-transient date adjustment (D) or set time (H).
In order to make the dial clearer and easier to read, RM 65-01 uses different colors to mark watch functions and buttons. Yellow represents the time: hours, minutes, small seconds at 6 o’clock; while green represents the date display; orange marks the chronograph second hand, as well as the 30-minute and 12-hour counters; red is related to the winding function . To avoid confusion, the rattrapante is presented in blue. The overall design depends entirely on the function of the watch.
From the side, you can see that the bezel, middle case and back cover are made of Carbon TPT® carbon fiber, showing multi-layered texture.
As for the case, every surface has extremely elegant details. The bezel, middle case and back cover are made of Carbon TPT® carbon fiber; the crown is made of grade 5 titanium alloy with micro-sandblasting, polishing and satin treatment; the chronograph button is also made of grade 5 titanium with polishing and satin treatment Alloy material. A nameplate engraved with RM 65-01 is embedded on the middle case, and the same material and treatment are also used.
The fast winding button is presented with a red Quartz TPT® quartz fiber button, which is particularly eye-catching. RM 65-01 offers Carbon TPT® carbon fiber and red gold with Carbon TPT® carbon fiber and other styles to choose from. It has more than 600 component parts, which fully proves the superb technical expertise of the RICHARD MILLE team. RM 65-01 upholds the brand’s heritage concept, while establishing a unique and exclusive image, it will surely occupy a place in the palace of RICHARD MILLE watches.
