[Novelty] the Richard Mille RM50-27-01 Suspended Tourbillon

Yes, the references from Richard Mille collections seem to become bigger and bigger (and may be less legible) but the watch we're talking about is another marvel from the brand: the RM50-27-01.

I'm a great fan of the RM027 line-up and the movement housed in this model is the one we already discovered in the RM027-01: the "suspended" caliber with Tourbillon.

The NTPT Carbon case used is the RM50's (model usually made for the Tourbillon Split Second chronograph). The Tourbillon and movement is still made of very exceptional material (Lital...) showing the brand's mastery to deal with very hard and light material.





Inside the traditional watchmaking world, the movement and technology used by RM is really IMHO something above the others. However, this is not traditional watchmaking anymore either.


It is only available in 5 pieces, for America and in RM's boutiques.
