- Titanium bridgesGrade 5 titanium skeletonised bridges support the great wheel and the tourbillon.
- Power reserve70 hours, from a fixed barrel delivering consistent torque to the tourbillon.
- Movement architectureDerived from the RM 012 of 2006, whose tubular structure replaced the conventional baseplate.
