Coupled with its Best Quality Richard Mille RM 011 Red TPT Quartz Replica Watch, Richard Mille presents the latest incarnation of its TPT quartz case dressed in vibrant red. Wrapped in its striped white casing, this tourbillion caliber demonstrated to the general public the full extent of the properties characterizing this composite material: great resilience to high temperatures, transparency to electromagnetic waves and extreme resistance to impact forces of up to 5,000 Gs.
Since it was unveiled two years ago, Richard Mille RM 011 Red TPT Quartz Replica Watch has enabled the Jura-based brand to produce cases and components with exceptional mechanical performances. Originally developed for the manufacture of racing boat sails, this material finds applications in Formula 1 chassis construction, aeronautic and now watchmaking, since it has rapidly become the brand’s trademark composite material.
Continuing with the recent launches of new watches from Richard Mille, may we present you the new Richard Mille RM 011 Replica Watch, and when we say quartz we are not talking about a battery operated watch but the quartz used in the case material. A unique color in fine watchmaking, it redefines the graphic limitations of this material.
Its creation involves inserting layers of silica no thicker than 45 microns between layers of carbon using an automated application system which modifies the orientation of the fibers between each layer by 45°. After being heated to 120°C in an autoclave similar to those used for aeronautical parts, the material is ready to be worked by ProArt, the Manufacture dedicated to machining Richard Mille cases and components.
Several months later, as part of its constant quest for technical and aesthetic solutions, Richard Mille released its first development involving Richard Mille Replica Watch, which was combined with TPT quartz exclusively for the brand in partnership with Swiss company North Thin Ply Technology —NTPT. It was this combination of materials that gave rise to the Richard Mille RM 27-02 Rafael Nadal.
