Richard Mille's New Creation Visualizes Gravity

Dubbed the "F1 of watches," Richard Mille actively introduces mechanisms and materials that break taboos in the watchmaking world. Furthermore, this revolutionary brand in the luxury watch industry has continuously developed complex sports watches with astonishing durability, capable of withstanding harsh environments, by welcoming top athletes from various fields as ambassadors, led by tennis champion Rafael Nadal.

It has sparked a boom among the world's celebrities who were tired of conventional luxury sports watches and complex timepieces. This momentum continues into 2014.

Models with incredible specifications continue to emerge, including the fourth collaboration model with Rafael Nadal, which uses a special carbon composite for the case; a signature model for newly appointed ambassador, Academy Award-winning actress Natalie Portman; and a flyback chronograph model for Romain Grosjean, a rising driver for the Lotus F1 team, for whom Richard Mille is an official partner and sponsor.



Among these, the model born from a collaboration with Sébastien Loeb—who retired after an unprecedented nine consecutive World Rally Championship titles and moved to the World Touring Car Championship in sports car racing from 2014—is one that we highly recommend our readers see.

In addition to the tourbillon mechanism, it features a rotary G-sensor at the center of the dial, allowing for easy measurement of G-forces from various directions while worn. Loeb himself plans to race with this model. It's a dream watch that any car enthusiast would want to wear at least once.
