Overview
White gold case set with princess-cut diamonds
This RM 17-01 carries an 18k white gold case set with princess-cut diamonds across the bezel, the caseband and the flanks, with the crown also set. The princess cut is a square outline with brilliant-style faceting; it is a cut, not a point on the coverage scale used elsewhere in the catalogue.
The movement is the manual-winding tourbillon calibre carried by every RM 17-01: 23 jewels in white gold chatons, 21,600 vph, around 70 hours of power reserve, with the power-reserve scale at 2 o’clock and the function indicator at 4 o’clock.

Design and engineering
- Princess-cut settingStone count, total carat weight and grading are not published for this reference, and whether the setting extends to the caseback is not established.
- Baseplate and bridges in grade 5 titaniumThe alloy is 90% titanium, 6% aluminium and 4% vanadium. Baseplate and bridges were validated separately under resistance testing.
- Tourbillon and balanceThe tourbillon cage measures 12.30 mm and the balance wheel 10.00 mm, with a Glucydur® balance, two arms, four setting screws, a moment of inertia of 10 mg·cm² and a lift angle of 53°.
- Fast-rotating barrelOne revolution every 6 hours instead of 7.5, which reduces periodic internal adhesion of the mainspring.
- Torque-limiting crownThe crown restricts applied torque to protect the winding stem and the mainspring against overwinding.
