The latest masterpiece from Richard Mille, the RM 38-02 Tourbillon Bubba Watson, is a stunning collaboration with professional golfer Bubba Watson. This watch features a unique pink theme inspired by Watson’s favorite PING driver, showcasing a vibrant style that is sure to captivate.
The distinctive design of the RM 38-02 incorporates pink and white quartz carbon fiber for the bezel and case back, while the mid-case is crafted from a combination of carbon fiber and pink quartz carbon fiber. Each case possesses a one-of-a-kind interlaced pattern, and the tonneau-shaped case ensures a more comfortable and snug fit on the wrist. An interesting detail lies in the crown, which cleverly mimics the dimpled texture of a golf ball.
The openwork dial allows wearers to admire the full movement of the watch’s mechanics, with skeletonized bridges forming a horizontal ‘V’ shape. Pink hand-painted designs pay homage to the clubhead used by Bubba Watson. The robust tourbillon structure at 6 o’clock is capable of withstanding impacts of up to 10,000g, ensuring stability even during high-speed swings by professional golfers.
Powered by the RM 38-02 manual winding movement, this timepiece has a frequency of 28,800 vph and offers a 52-hour power reserve. The movement features a carbon fiber skeletonized baseplate, boasting excellent shock resistance. The sturdy bridges are crafted from Grade 5 titanium, and even the small apertures on the back incorporate pink color elements for decoration.
