    Richard Mille presents the RM 66 Flying Tourbillon

    Few companies approach high-end watchmaking with the same fun and playful irreverence as Richard Mille luxury replica watches. Everything the brand produces is executed to an incredibly high standard, yet many of its designs have a certain relaxed nature , even if they end up being pretty serious timepieces. If Richard Mille watches are of the quality and price that most people are likely to accept, there may be some who consider them horological novelties. However, when a watch has powerful complications, state-of-the-art materials, and costs as much as a very nice house in many parts of the US, it's ultimately hard to call it a pure "novelty". Richard Mille's latest release, the RM 66 Flying Tourbillon, is bold and slightly irreverent at the highest possible level,

    The case of the Richard Mille RM 66 Flying Tourbillon follows the same multi-part curved tonneau design found on most of the brand's other models, measuring 42.7mm wide, 49.94mm lug-to-lug, and 16.15mm thick overall. The bezel and case back are made of black carbon fiber TPT, while the case middle is made of grade 5 titanium and features brushed pillars with polished bevels.

    Set in the central titanium case is a 5N red gold inlay with a striking 'Studs of Paris' pattern reminiscent of the studs on punk belts. A curved sapphire crystal with anti-glare treatment is mounted on the dial side and case back of the best swiss replica watches, while the case itself is held together by 20 titanium spline screws with two nitrile washers that help form the 50 meters of water resistance.

    At 3 o'clock is a rather ornately designed torque-limiting winding crown, which automatically disengages when the tension in the barrel reaches an optimal level. Since the Richard Mille RM 66 Flying Tourbillon is powered by a hand-wound movement, this innovative feature eliminates the possibility of accidental overwinding and prevents wear and damage to the stem and mainspring.

    The crown itself is made of polished grade 5 titanium in the shape of a spider, with black rubber collars and synthetic rubies surrounding the legs. The crown is crowned with a small skull badge as a subtle nod to the RM 052 Skull Tourbillon, due to its complex construction, machining and finishing one of these spider-shaped winding crowns takes a full 12 hours to do correctly fully.mens replica watch

    Like most Richard Mille watches, the new RM 66 Flying Tourbillon has a largely skeletonized aesthetic. However, rather than simply displaying its movement, the entire interior is designed around an intricate rose gold sculpture. In the center of the watch is a human skeleton hand made of 5N red gold. The index finger and little finger are spread out to form the popular "horn" gesture in rock music.

    The three-dimensional skeletonized hands essentially hold the components of the movement inside, and its three unextended fingers, visible through the sapphire display caseback, grip the other side of the movement. To achieve its intricate shape and realistic texture, the individual components of the hand are first machine-polished and then handed over to Geneva-based master engraver Olivier Vaucher, who adds details and finishes by hand, before microblasting.Jacob & Co.

    Surrounding the inner perimeter of the crystal is a rehaut made of grade 5 titanium with a black anodized treatment, and mounted on this assembly are luminous hour markers extending from it to the golden lancet arch, from the front and The back of the watch presents views of the highly sculptural display. The hour markers themselves are coated with luminescent green luminescent light in the shape of a guitar pick, while a pair of centrally mounted skeleton baton hands also have luminous tips for added visibility in the dark.

    The top of the rehaut displays the "Richard Mille" name in white letters, while the obligatory "Swiss Made" signature appears in its usual place at 6 o'clock. The only other writing on the dial side of the watch is the small "RM66" badge that extends from below the rehaut between the 7 and 8 o'clock hour markers. In keeping with the visual impact of its ornate case and sculptural cutout display, the RM 66 Flying Tourbillon is fitted with a simple black rubber strap in Richard Mille's signature airy shape.replica Patek Philippe Aquanaut

    As with most skeleton watches, the movement plays a prominent aesthetic role in the overall appearance of the Richard Mille RM 66 Flying Tourbillon. However, since the gold-tone hand sculptures are the real focal point of the watch, the movement itself has been designed in such a way that it conforms to the shape of the hands and creates maximum open space around them. Officially known as the Caliber RM66, the hand-wound movement runs at a frequency of 21,600vph (3 hertz) while providing the user with a power reserve of approximately 72 hours. Also, California. The mainplate and bridges of the RM66 are made of grade 5 titanium and feature a fast-rotating barrel to reduce internal mainspring sticking and form an ideal triangular curve to maximize performance and regularity.

The tourbillon cage is fixed to only one end of its axis, with no upper bridges, which makes the RM 66's flying tourbillon appear to be floating in space as it dances and spins its fingers above the golden skeleton hands that grip the rest.replica Breitling Endurance Pro Ironman

    Rather than using a traditional lever regulator, the balance wheel of the Richard Mille RM 66 Flying Tourbillon has a variable inertia design, which provides superior shock resistance and better long-term timing results. Finally, completing the flying tourbillon is a small central cap with the same skull badge as on the winding crown for a subtle commemoration of death and a cohesive overall look.

    Even the humblest Richard Mille watches are six-figure models, which you can almost guarantee when you consider that the new RM 66 features both a flying tourbillon and intricate skeletonized hands crafted from pure 5N red gold. This watch will become quite expensive. Limited to 50 pieces worldwide, the Richard Mille RM 66 Flying Tourbillon is one of the more expensive and luxurious models in the brand's current collection, although it still costs less than other premium versions such as the RM 88 Smiley and the ultra-thin RM UP -01 Ferrari watch. The extremely expensive price tag can be said with the solid gold skeleton hands in the center of the dial.replica Zenith watch
