RM 56-02, No. 10/10: A Sapphire Extravaganza

In 2015, Richard Mille wowed the world with the RM 56-02 Sapphire. It is like the James Bond of watches – it’s incredibly high-tech and built to withstand anything. What makes it so cool? Well, it’s crafted from a material called sapphire, the same stuff used for bulletproof glass. Plus, it’s transparent, so you can see all the gears and gizmos inside, like a peek into the future. What’s truly impressive is that crafting this watch from sapphire is an incredibly complex and time-consuming process. It takes about 960 hours of machining and finishing to create a single case, which is about 40 days of continuous work!
Jackie Chan, the martial arts legend and actor, wore the RM 56-02. Imagine jumping off buildings and still having a watch that works flawlessly. The watch can handle shocks and vibrations like a champ, thanks to its unique movement suspension system. So, whether you’re a fan of cutting-edge engineering or an action movie aficionado, the RM 56-02 is like a crystal-clear statement of your appreciation for innovation and style, with a dash of Hollywood glamour. It’s no surprise that this one’s easily one of the most expensive Richard Mille watches to exist!
