DESCRIPTION

The skull edition of the RM052-01 is already one of the rarest Richard Mille timepieces but this edition encased in a blue NTPT carbon case is almost impossible to find. As one of 10 pieces that were released by Richard Mille, this is a skull that is as elusive as it is treasured by the market. The RM052-01 case is tonneau-shaped with a surface dimension of 50 x 42mm and 16.15mm thick with has a titanium case band and an NTPT blue carbon bezel plus a see-through case back. The dial features a hand-sculpted skeletonized skull made of grade 5 titanium and has the upper and lower jaw holding the ruby of the tourbillon cage. The dial and case are assembled using an average of 20 spline screws in grade 5 titanium and abrasion-resistant washers in 316L stainless steel. Due to the openings in the bezel and the case back this Richard Mille RM52-01 is much lighter and helps it create its unique skull design. This limited-edition timepiece is powered by the manually wound RM052 caliber with a tourbillon movement and a power reserve of 48 hours. The case is paired with a white rubber bracelet with a titanium double fold-over clasp. It has a water resistance of 50 meters (164 feet).
