“A Richard Mille watch is a place where progress meets tradition and mechanical engineering blends with Craftmanship”.
No longer just tonneau shaped, meaning that the watch is a slightly curved barrel shape designed to fit the wrist, the new Richard Mille 33-03 expands on the round shape of the 33-02.
Whether you love the brand or consider the price unjustified, Richard Mille watches are a statement unto themselves. Watch aficionados are quick to point out why Richard Mille watches are so desirable. The brand is know for being among the first to use aerospace-grade materials like carbon fiber and titanium, resulting in an extremely light case. No one will miss their distinctive designs featuring skeletonized dials that allows the wearer to peer directly into the heart of the tiny machines, revealing Grand Complications designed to both dazzle the eye and suggest at the incredible feats of engineering and precision that goes into each and every timepiece they produce.
A watch complication is any function on a mechanical watch that goes beyond displaying hours, minutes, and seconds. The term refers to the added mechanical complexity required to incorporate these extra features into the watch’s movement. A simple date window is an example of a complication, while the most complex watches, known as “Grand Complications,” combine numerous features such as a perpetual calendar, a minute repeater, a chronograph, and a way to contact the International Space Station.
Richard Mille is expensive for all these reasons but very limited production and extremely high demand, it’s rather easy to see why RM watches end up on the wrists of collectors, professional athletes and celebrities, and why wearing one is considered to be a “the billionaire handshake.”
