Overview

The RM 028 Americas is a 30-piece edition of the diver’s watch made for retailers in North and South America. The case and bezel are black DLC titanium, with the lugs in titanium. The numerals and hands are red and white, the carbon fibre flange around the dial is red, and the crown carries a red rubber protection ring.
Case, movement and diving specification are those of the RM 028: a round three-part case of 47.00 mm by 14.60 mm, 300 metres of water resistance to ISO 6425, and a unidirectional bezel of three layers held by 22 eight-point-star screws so that it cannot be dislocated by impact.
