Overview
White Quartz TPT® case
This execution uses White Quartz TPT® for the bezel and caseback with a titanium caseband, on a white rubber strap. The inner flange is red and the pusher caps green and red, with the standard colour-coded displays of the reference beneath the sapphire dial.
Quartz TPT® is built from silica threads divided into layers no thicker than 45 microns, saturated in resins developed for Richard Mille and stacked with the fibre orientation rotated by 45° between plies before curing at 120°C under 6 bar. Machining exposes the layering, so the striation differs on every case.
Key details
Design and engineering
- Calibre RMAC4Skeletonised automatic winding movement with hours, minutes, seconds at 6 o’clock, date, split-seconds chronograph with a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock and a 12-hour counter at 9 o’clock, function selector, rapid winding and variable-geometry rotor. It measures 31.78 × 29.98 mm by 8.69 mm thick, on 51 jewels at 36,000 vph (5 Hz), with around 60 hours (± 10%) of power reserve without the chronograph running.
- White Quartz TPT® caseTripartite, machined in-house after curing. Silica takes colour in a way carbon does not, which is why the coloured TPT executions across the collection are Quartz rather than Carbon.
- Split-seconds architectureTwo six-column wheels with a vertical clutch. The 5 Hz frequency allows elapsed times to be read to a tenth of a second. Richard Mille records shock and drop simulations, accelerated ten-year ageing of the functions, water-resistance testing and magnetic field trials for the chronograph.
- Rapid windingThe pusher at 8 o’clock rearms the barrel directly, without the crown; 125 presses take it to a full charge. Richard Mille specifies it for restarting a watch that has stopped.
- Fast-rotating barrelOne revolution every six hours instead of the more common seven and a half, which maintains torque across the power reserve.
- Colour codingThe dial is coded by function rather than decorated: yellow for the time, green for the date, orange for the chronograph displays, red for winding and blue for the split-seconds hand.
