Richard Mille RM 21-02 Manual Winding Tourbillon Aerodyne 30 mm Black Dial Platinum Rubber Strap rm-21-02

A FLIGHTWORTHY INSTRUMENT

Precision, lightness and resistance are intimately bound by materials and architectural constructions. We have always capitalized on engineering materials from fields way beyond watchmaking. These new and technical materials are recognized today in Haute Horlogerie for their aesthetic and their mechanical properties.
The RM 21-02 Tourbillon Aerodyne has set the highest limits for watchmaking both in terms of its design, mechanical inventiveness and use of materials.

Toughness to spare

We were intent on achieving extreme lightness on the RM 21-02 and we succeeded in constructing it on a honeycomb structure. The objective was to juxtapose and laser-weld each tiny cell. This achievement on such a microscopic scale is a major technical tour-de-force.
