Overview

A black RM 055 on a record that says grey

The photograph on this record shows a matte black RM 055 — black bezel, black caseband, black strap — with a blue ring around the dial flange and a dark skeletonised calibre RMUL2 behind it.

The record is named for the All Grey, a boutique edition with a sandblasted titanium carbide bezel, polished bevelling along its edges and a black chapter ring around the dial. This watch has none of those features. Which of the two is wrong — the name or the picture — cannot be established from the record, so nothing beyond the movement specification and what the photograph shows is entered here.

Design and engineering

  • What is not establishedThe record’s name and its photograph describe different watches. The All Grey’s documented features — a sandblasted titanium carbide bezel, polished bevels, a black chapter ring — are absent from this image, so none of them is written here.
  • Calibre RMUL2Manual winding and extremely skeletonised, in grade 5 titanium with PVD and Titalyt® treatment, giving rigidity and the surface flatness the gear train needs.
  • Free-sprung balance with variable inertiaThe regulator index is eliminated; four small weights set directly on the balance allow accurate and repeatable adjustment.
  • Double barrelEnergy is spread across two barrels, equalising torque and reducing pressure and friction on bearings and pivots.
  • Rubberised case componentsRubber is injected at high pressure around the titanium components, insulating the movement from vibration and making the watch more comfortable on the wrist.
  • Sapphire casebackThe skeletonised calibre is legible from the reverse.
