Overview

Carbon TPT® case on the Aerodyne dual time zone

The case is Carbon TPT®, on the RM 022 Aerodyne Dual Time Zone Tourbillon. Carbon TPT® is built from layers of parallel carbon filaments impregnated with a black matrix and stacked with a 45° change of direction between layers, then cured; machining exposes the layering as banding.

The RM 022 case measures 48.00 × 39.70 × 13.85 mm. The calibre RM022 is a manual-winding tourbillon with hours, minutes, a dual time zone read at 3 o’clock, a power-reserve indicator at 11 o’clock, a torque indicator at 1 o’clock and a function selector at 4 o’clock, with a power reserve of circa 70 hours.

Design and engineering

  • Carbon TPT®Parallel carbon filaments are laid in layers, impregnated with a black matrix and stacked with the direction rotated 45° between layers before curing. The pattern revealed by machining differs from case to case.
  • Composite baseplateTitanium exterior framework with honeycomb orthorhombic titanium aluminide and carbon nanofibre. Seen from the dial side the plate takes a trench-like V-shaped profile, with the outer edges standing higher than the centre.
  • Sapphire disc dual time zoneA transparent sapphire disc inscribed with hours rotates permanently through the movement; the figures are legible only against the field at 3 o’clock.
  • Torque indicatorThe indicator at 1 o’clock reports the tension in the mainspring barrel.
