The Richard Mille RM38-02 Tourbillon Bubba Watson is a striking timepiece that marries the precision of watchmaking with the dynamic spirit of golf. Created in collaboration with professional golfer Bubba Watson, this watch dazzles with its vibrant pink theme, inspired by the golfer’s favorite PING driver. With its bold design, this watch is not just a timepiece but a statement piece that exudes joy.
The watch features a unique case crafted from a composite of pink and white quartz TPT and carbon fiber, offering a distinctive interwoven texture on each piece. The tonneau-shaped case ensures a comfortable fit on the wrist, while the crown’s design mimics the dimples of a golf ball, adding an element of playfulness to the overall aesthetic.
The open-worked dial allows enthusiasts to appreciate the intricate workings of the watch’s movement. The skeletonized bridges form a striking ‘V’ shape, and the hand-painted pink accents echo the design of Bubba Watson’s golf club head. At the 6 o’clock position, the tourbillon is engineered to withstand shocks up to 10,000g, ensuring precise operation even during a powerful swing.
At the heart of the Richard Mille RM38-02 is the manual-winding caliber that beats at 28,800 vibrations per hour, providing a power reserve of 52 hours. The movement is meticulously crafted with a carbon fiber skeletonized baseplate, delivering excellent shock resistance. The bridges are constructed from robust Grade 5 titanium, and the pink embellishments on the back add a final touch of elegance.
