The Richard Mille RM 38-02 Tourbillon Bubba Watson is an exquisite masterpiece born from the collaboration with professional golfer Bubba Watson. This standout timepiece draws inspiration from the unique charisma of the golf world, showcasing a vibrant pink theme that adds a touch of joy to its already breathtaking design.
The watch’s bezel and case back are crafted from pink and white quartz TPT, combined with carbon fiber for the case middle. Each piece is distinct with its own intertwined pattern, making every watch a unique piece of art. The tonneau-shaped case is designed to fit comfortably and snugly around the wrist, while the crown creatively mimics the texture of a golf ball, adding a whimsical detail to the overall design.
One of the standout features of this watch is its openwork dial, allowing the wearer to marvel at the intricate movement within. The skeletonized bridges form a striking ‘V’ shape across the dial, with hand-painted pink accents reminiscent of the clubhead used by Bubba Watson himself. The tourbillon located at 6 o’clock is designed to withstand an impressive 10,000g of force, ensuring stability even during the powerful swings of a professional golfer.
The RM 38-02 is powered by a manual-winding movement operating at a frequency of 28,800 vph and offering a power reserve of 52 hours. The movement boasts a carbon fiber skeletonized baseplate for excellent shock resistance, supported by robust Grade 5 titanium bridges. Pink elements subtly decorate the rear of the movement, enhancing its aesthetic appeal.
