RICHARD MILLE RM 014

CALIBER RM 014 FUNCTION SELECTOR

In a manner similar to a car's gearbox, a push-button located at the center of the crown allows one to select the winding, neutral and hand setting functions with a simple push. A hand near 4 o’clock displays the selected function: C-(Carica) winding, N-(Neutrale) neutral, L-(Lancette) hand setting.

MODULAR TIME SETTING MECHANISM FITTED AGAINST THE CASE BACK Provides the following advantages for longevity and maintenance: -Since the component is mounted outside of the movement, the time setting assembly can be changed without affecting the integrity of the bottom plate in the event of a possible defect or during maintenance; -The mounting and dismantling of this module from the back will not require the removal of the hands and the dial; WHEEL BASED TIME SETTING SYSTEM (back of the movement) Provides smooth time setting functions through the elimination of engaging friction by replacing it with rolling friction.
