Richard Mille

Off the beaten track. RM063.

Truth be told, for the longest time I didn’t really think I’d ever like Richard Mille watches. My interest in them bordered on curiosity and nothing else.

Mostly because I found that I liked more modern-classic looking independents, such as FP Journe or Gronefeld, and I figured I couldn’t pull off a barrel shaped watch. (Maybe because I’m also barrel shaped. )

However, all that changed when I came across (Puristspro member) SteveH’s Ticktocking videos, in which he reviewed the Dizzy Hands.

Call me crazy, but somehow a complication that “can turn time off” appealed to me instantly.

For me, the watch is like an off-switch of sorts when I should stop watching the clock for the important things, like spending time with my family, or time in prayer.

Then it goes back to regular time when I need to go back into the world again.

(I only wish they made it in a white metal tho.)

Cheers Purists, I hope all of you are enjoying your weekend.

The shape is more conventional vs the classic RM that is a factor.

I too like or actually love the Dizzy hands

One of my favorite models

plus that case is one of the most beautiful work of art by RM. I own one few years ago. I find the concept of switching off the time is so romantic. If you fancy such functionality.. check these out.. these are something similar with a slight twist to it,...

Yes so very romantic! Thanks for the info on the other watches too. :) [nt]
