Richard Mille is as quick as a flash

New for the year 2015, is the Richard Mille RM 011 Yellow Flash that comes in a subtle shade of black with hints of bright and bold yellow tones on the dial

Limited to just 50 pieces, the timepiece is powered by a skeletonised automatic winding RM 011-S calibre that hums at a steady cadence of 28,800 VpH. The movement drives the functions of hours and minutes that journey around the skeletonised dial, which sits in a case with the exclusive dimensions of 50mm x 40mm x 16.15mm. Other functions that are protected by an anti-glare sapphire crystal and appear on the dial are a 60-minute countdown timer, 12-hour totalizer, oversize date and annual calendar.

The front and back bezels of the RM 011 Yellow Flash are created from TZP-N, an ultra-tough black ceramic with a low density that is scratch resistance to the highest degree with a low coefficient of thermal activity that means the shape of the material will not alter when exposed to extreme temperatures. The caseband, pushers and crown are created using NTPT® carbon, an ultra-lightweight and highly resistant form of carbon fibre that has been used on the sails of racing yachts, Formula 1 car chassis and in aeronautics.

The RM 011 Yellow Flash comes on a black rubber strap and is engraved on the back with a unique limited edition number. The watch is exclusively available at Richard Mille boutiques in Geneva, Paris, London Mount Street, Harrods, Milan, Monaco, Dubai, Abu Dhabi & Doha.
