Richard Mille RM 66 Flying Tourbillon - proudly unconventional
Undoubtedly one of the most replica luxury watches in the collection, the new RM 66 Flying Tourbillon watch, whose flashing 'horn' gesture symbolizes a generation, a school of thought and a state of mind. All those who, like the brand itself, seek to challenge any limitation will see themselves in the originality of the RM 66 Flying Tourbillon.
Inspired by the world of rock music
Flying Tourbillon at 12 o'clock
The eyes are first attracted by the 5N red gold skeleton hands, and the fingers hold the movement. Since Richard Mille only abides by its own style rules, the hands appearing on this piece are as if seen through X-rays - a tribute to the RM 052 Tourbillon Skull, whose identity is firmly anchored in the In memento mori, people are reminded to make the most of each moment through the symbolism of the skull. Likewise, the RM 66 Flying Tourbillon swiss replica watches brilliantly evokes the subversive spirit of the Sixties and the spirit of rock 'n' roll, a trend that enhanced a life off the beaten track in ways never before seen.
The trumpet gesture is indicated by the outstretched index and pinky fingers, while the last phalanx of the thumb can be seen holding the middle and ring fingers from the back of the watch. For this model, conceived by creative and development director Cécile Guenat, the five numerals of the hands are first polished and then transferred to the hands of the master engraver for perfection. The task of craftsmanship was entrusted to the Geneva engraver Olivier Vaucher. A long and meticulous job of deburring and polishing outlines the bones and highlights delicate joints with a micro-blasted finish.
The architecture of the RM66 hand-wound movement showcases a rapid-winding barrel that provides a 72-hour power reserve at 6 o'clock and a tourbillon at 12 o'clock - a first for the brand. first. To ensure maximum transparency, the movement in grade 5 titanium is highly skeletonized so that its lines follow those of the hand. This is thanks to a complex mechanical solution rarely used by Richard Mille best replica watches. To enhance the skeleton effect, a flying tourbillon with variable inertia is used. The tourbillon cage is fixed at only one end of its axis, eliminating the upper bridge, thereby visually accentuating the ethereal quality of the movement. However, considering that the brand's shock tests are among the most rigorous in watchmaking, this bet is very dangerous. This atypical arrangement of the movement, flipped by 180°, provides the tourbillon's ballet of pride.
Bringing the world of rock 'n' roll to life in the RM 66 Flying Tourbillon required considerable technical ingenuity – in fact, 1,500 hours of research and development and 9 months of work by the case team. For example, the index point is shaped like a guitar pick, extended by a titanium lancet arch. These parts must first be polished—although this task presents challenges when working with titanium—to achieve a perfect microblasted finish. Each hour marker is then screwed to the titanium bezel. Needless to say, polishing the bevelled edges of the latter before the black galvanic treatment is also an extremely delicate operation.
The extreme attention to detail is further demonstrated by the spider-shaped crown in grade 5 titanium, with gothic-style parts including a ruby and circular black rubber gasket. Assembly of this mechanism was quite a challenge. The engraved skullcap pays homage to the RM 052 Tourbillon Skull replica watches for sale. The torque-limiting crown means that it disengages automatically when the barrel tension is optimal, eliminating any risk of overwinding. 'We spent more than 200 hours on this piece from development to finalization, plus another 12 hours to machine and finish a crown. Polishing titanium is much more difficult than polishing gold or steel. Not only that, but the polishing also makes it very difficult for the crown not to slip, so we had to use special clamps to fix this crown from the inside. Therefore, the creation of this crown involved a subtle alchemy," explains Cases Technical Director Julien Boillat.
The case offers a striking contrast between the apparent roughness of Carbon TPT ® and the precious luster of gold. The grade 5 titanium case with satin-finished pillars and polished bevels is inlaid with 5N red gold plating. These plates feature a "clou de Paris" pattern, machined, sanded and then hand polished to restore the sharp edged character of punk belts.
Limited edition, the Richard Mille RM 66 Flying Tourbillon is a dynamic and dynamic timepiece that captivates with its fine details, captivates with its unruly spirit and faithfulness to the brand.replica Richard Mille RM 011 Felipe Massa
Richard Mille RM 66 Flying Tourbillon Specifications
Caliber RM66: hand-wound tourbillon movement with hours and minutes.
Case Dimensions: 42.70 x 49.94 x 16.15 mm
main feature
power reserve
Approx. 72 hours (±10%)
Grade 5 titanium baseplate and bridges
Grade 5 Titanium is a biocompatible, highly corrosion resistant and very hard alloy, allowing the gear train to function effortlessly. The alloy is composed of 90% titanium, 6% aluminum and 4% vanadium.
This combination further enhances the material's mechanical properties, which explains its frequent use in the aerospace, aviation and automotive industries.
The baseplate and bridges have undergone intensive and complete proof testing to optimize their resistance capabilities.
Variable inertia balance flying tourbillon
The flying tourbillon, located at 12 o'clock, is a complex regulating mechanism. The distinguishing feature of the so-called "flying" tourbillon is that its cage is assembled without the bridges, creating the impression of weightlessness and offering a perfect view.
The free spring balance provides better reliability in the event of shocks or movement assembly and disassembly and guarantees better timekeeping results over a longer period of time. The regulator index is eliminated and more accurate and repeatable calibrations are possible thanks to 4 small adjustable screws located directly on the balance.replica Grand Seiko Sport
Faster rotating barrel (6 hours per revolution instead of 7.5 hours) This barrel has the following advantages:
Significantly less periodic internal mainspring sticking for improved performance.
Provides an excellent mainspring triangular curve with an ideal power reserve/performance and regularity ratio.
Barrel detent with progressive recoil
This setup allows for considerable winding gain (approximately 20%), especially during winding start. It also contributes to the even distribution of tension within the mainspring.
Barrel teeth and third wheel pinion with central involute profile
The central involute profile of the barrel teeth and pinion provides an optimal pressure angle of 20°. This promotes efficient rotational movement and compensates for possible variations in driveline engagement, ensuring excellent torque transfer and significantly improving performance.
Spline screws in grade 5 titanium for bridges and case
This allows for better control of the torque applied to the screw during assembly. Therefore, these screws are immune to physical manipulation during assembly or disassembly and age well.

case
The triple tonneau-shaped case was fully curved to make the watch ergonomic and comfortable to wear, but production was complex and demanded high quality control.
The bezel and caseback are machined from Carbon TPT ® , an exclusive material with a unique marquetry look. Carbon TPT ® consists of multiple layers of parallel filaments obtained by splitting carbon fibers. The layers, with a maximum thickness of 30 microns, are impregnated with a matrix and then woven on a special machine that changes the weft direction by 45° between the layers. Carbon TPT ® is heated to 120°C at a pressure of 6 bar and is then ready to be processed on the CNC machines at the Richard Mille factory. Carbon TPT ® exhibits a 25% higher incidence of fracture stress and a 200% higher incidence of microcracks than other technologically advanced forms of carbon materials.replica Richard Mille RM030
