[Novelty] Richard Mille RM011-02 Le Mans Classic chronograph

Jun 28, 2016,08:12 AM
 

Hi everyone,

As you know Richard Mille is the proud sponsor of the Le Mans Classic race he participated in launching  several years ago. He usually unveils a specific limited edition for this event and, this year, the brand has just announced the latest version: the RM011-02 Le Mans Classic




As you can see, it is based on the GMT version of the RM011 (hence the -02). It is recognizable from this specific English racing green on the strap (not very visible on the pictures).

I find the color combination very appealing. It is made of white ATZ Ceramic (bezel and caseback), while the caseband is in NTPT Carbon, in green this time. The crown is in NTPT Carbon as well.




The watch is a 150 pieces limited edition.

Very appealing one.

Cheers, Mark

Winning combination

Thanks for the heads up Mark, Love the subtle use of NTPT on the crown. The colour combination, and functional adjustment of GMT is great. I like how the callout to the LeMans is quiet, and not included right on the dial. Hopefully some live pictures even...

Colton - seems to me the Le Mans callout is smack in the middle... But I agree on all other counts - amazing craftsmanship. Personally the green and yellow is too "Brazil" for me, so I would vote for the black-yellow version.

Oh jeez

My mistake.. I completely missed the 12 o'clock stamp of Lemans. That is a detractor for me, but I am not a racing fan. I'll just go back to dreaming about a standard RM002 v2 in titanium Colton

My pleasure!

Indeed the GMT adjustment and display are great, so are the chronograph Flyback and AC functions. More than that, though it is quite thick, I love the technicality of the watch, its capabilities and aesthetics. The Le Mans sign is something much less visi...
