Richard Mille introduces the RM 38-02 Tourbillon Bubba Watson, a distinctive pink-themed skeleton tourbillon watch inspired by the world of golf. Designed in collaboration with professional golfer Bubba Watson, this vibrant timepiece captures the essence of his favorite PING Driver, showcasing a blend of style and enthusiasm.
The new release features a bezel and caseback crafted from pink and white quartz TPT composite, while the middle case consists of carbon fiber and pink quartz TPT. Each case boasts unique interwoven textures, providing a snug fit on the wrist with its tonneau shape. The crown’s top cleverly mimics the dimples on a golf ball, adding a playful touch.
An open-worked dial allows wearers to admire the complete movement, with skeletonized bridges forming a lateral ‘V’ pattern adorned with pink hand-painted motifs, reminiscent of Bubba Watson’s clubhead. The 6 o’clock tourbillon structure withstands an impressive 10,000g of shock force, ensuring stable operation even during high-speed swings.
Powered by the RM 38-02 manual winding movement, operating at 28,800vph and offering a 52-hour power reserve, this watch features a carbon fiber skeletonized baseplate equipped with exceptional shock resistance. The bridges are made from durable grade 5 titanium, incorporating pink elements in the decorative holes on the back.
