The present reference is the Richard Mille RM 011 UAE Edition, an automatic flyback chronograph which resulted from a partnership with Ahmed Seddiqi & Sons. Limited to only 7 pieces, this all gray high-precision model – the RM011 was initially designed after F1 – features a skeletonized dial and a variable-geometry rotor.<\/p>\n
The lightweight case in titanium measures 50mm by 40mm and is 16.5mm thick and has been treated with gray PVD coating as well as microblasting for the titanium. The beautiful skeletonized dial features a running seconds display at 3 o’clock, 12-hour counter at 6 o’clock, 60-minute countdown timer at 9 o’clock, and an oversize date at 12 o’clock. Visible through the dial is the Richard Mille in-house Calibre RMAC1 automatic movement, also in titanium and offering a 40 to 55-hour power reserve. This is due to the variable-geometry rotor which allows for adjusted winding based on the wearer’s activity. The movement is beautifully finished, from the sandblasted and PVD-treated base plate and bridges in titanium, to the beveled edges and polished surfaces.<\/p>\n
The crown takes its design from a racing tyre with a rubber grip to facilitate the setting of the time and the winding. Two pushers are present on either side of the crown to start\/stop the chronograph and to activate the flyback function.<\/p>\n
Fitted with a seamless off-white rubber strap and titanium folding clasp, this watch offers both high elasticity and great comfort, ensuring a secure grip with every wear. A highly functional and wearable piece, it brings the best of both worlds to watch collectors.<\/p>\n
