Richard Mille’s 20 Years Of Savoir-Faire In The Creation Of Tourbillon Watches...

Richard Mille’s 20 Years Of Savoir-Faire In The Creation Of Tourbillon Watches Is Legendary

"Using a “no gimmicks” approach as a starting point, Richard Mille’s success is based on three important criteria: pushing the limits of technical innovation by incorporating technologies and materials found in cutting-edge industries like F1 car racing and aeronautics, imposing infinite creativity and respecting the centuries-old heritage and traditions of fine watchmaking. There are practically no standard components in a Richard Mille timepiece and nothing is superfluous; everything serves a purpose and must meet the highest standards. Take for example the trademark spline screws used throughout the watch movement and that are highly visible on the case, which required months of development and investment and over 20 operations during the manufacturing process. Technological and hard-to-work materials such as grade 5 titanium, ARCAP, graph TPT, carbon nanofiber, LITAL and ceramics are used extensively because they’re lighter, tougher, more scratch resistant or more impervious to shocks."...
