- Summary
Presentwatch is pleased to present the latest news from Richard Mille:
RM 011 FELIPE MASSA FLYBACK CHRONOGRAPH CARBON
Richard Mille will produce only 30 pieces of the RM 011 FELIPE MASSA Limited edition
And only to be sold at the Richard Mille Boutique Beverly Hills, California
The new timepiece features a flyback chronograph along with Richard Mille’s other technical innovations.
The first thing you notice about the new RM 011 is the use of color.
It’s very bright but in a good, sporty way and is reticent of the brightly colored helmet that Massa himself wears when racing.
The use of color also contrasts nicely against the muted tones of the black carbon tripartite case and the matching yellow on the dial helps to break things up a little, although whether it improves legibility in any way at all is debatable.
As with most Richard Mille timepieces, the RM 011 is packed with features including a flyback chronograph, 60-minute countdown timer, 12-hour totalizer, annual calendar and oversize date and month.
The automatic winding movement has been skeletonized and includes adjustable rotor geometry.
The carbon case is quite large however that, combined with the bright colors, should make the RM 011 easier to spot on Massa’s wrist when he wears it.
The use of contrasting color and the yellow helmet at 7 o’clock is a nice final touch to let you know that this is a timepiece associated with F1 without having to broadcast it all over the dial.
