Featuring an innovative, patented tourbillon flyback chronograph to track matches.<\/p>\n

Long billed as racing machines in wristwatch form, Richard Mill is setting its sights on the pitch with the utterly distinctive, sport-inspired Richard Mille RM 41-01 Soccer Tourbillon<\/a>, designed to track the course of a game in a compact, luxe package. <\/p>\n

\"\"(Richard Mille)<\/p>\n

As the luxe and highly covetable horologist preferred by the likes of Sly Stallone and Drake<\/a> notes, the \u201c\u00a0RM 41-01 Tourbillon Soccer tackles a unique challenge, fully tracking a match through the prism of Haute Horlogerie.\u201d Complete with a mechanical goal counter and a match phase indicator within its proprietary RM41-01 titanium caliber movement, the watch (available in two striking case colorways) manages to feature a tourbillon escapement as well as a 70-hour power reserve.<\/p>\n

\"\"(Richard Mille)<\/p>\n

The envy-inducing watch brand, also notably worn by the likes of Formula 1 star driver Charles Leclerc<\/a>, worked with Audemars Piguet le Locle on developing the one-of-a-kind movement, with the flyback chronograph design advancing from tracking the first half of a match to the second half of a match with each reset. Ahead of this year\u2019s FIFA World Cup, the Richard Mille RM 41-01 Soccer Tourbillon<\/a> might prove as functional as it is visually appealing (and expensive, of course).<\/p>\n

\"\"(Richard Mille)<\/p>\n

The Richard Mille RM 41-01 Soccer Tourbillon<\/a> boasts a movement crafted from grade 5 titanium, with \u201cmovement architecture (that) pushes the limits of technical feasibility,\u201d the watchmaker noted. Indeed, its 650 movement components marked five years of development for the haute horologist. Pushers at 2 and 4-o\u2019clock track home and away team goals seamlessly, while the skeletonized dial also features markers for the halves themselves and extra time.<\/p>\n

\"\"(Richard Mille)<\/p>\n

The company\u2019s signature tonneau-shaped case is built from a proprietary, ultra-lightweight composite, while the watchmaker honed in on making the movement as light as possible. The timepiece, a feat of horological innovation that expands on Richard Mille\u2019s previous soccer-inspired timepieces (like the RM 11-01) also showcases Richard Mille\u2019s \u201cability to merge sport-specific functionality with advanced mechanical watchmaking,\u201d the company said. <\/p>\n

\"\"(Richard Mille)<\/p>\n

Of the investment-level timepiece duo, Commercial Director Alexandre Mille lauded the brand\u2019s ever-innovative approach to watchmaking craft. \u201cWe think in concepts rather than linear evolutions,\u201d he said. \u201cWhat we learn on one reference can become the starting point for the next challenge.\u201d\u00a0Such innovation certainly doesn\u2019t come cheap: The Richard Mille RM 41-01 Soccer Tourbillon<\/a> retails for an ultra-rare $1.94 million. <\/p>\n
