Richard Mille RM72-01 «Charles LeClerc»

Richard Mille has quietly released a new product in collaboration with brand ambassador and Ferrari racer Charles Leclair. The case of the watch is made of carbon fiber, and its white and red coloring is a reference to the flag of the Principality of Monaco, the birthplace of Leclair.

The dial of the model is designed in the same white and red color scheme. The watch is a flyback chronograph with a column wheel and a dual clutch, in which the 30-minute counter is paired with a 24-hour counter instead of a standard 12-hour counter.

The chronograph movement is also equipped with a crown position indicator and a half-instant date. It operates at a balanced frequency of 28,800 pcs/hour and provides a 50-hour power reserve. The automatic winding system in the watch uses a platinum rotor powered by ceramic bearings.

The model is limited to a series of 150 copies. The estimated cost of the watch is $330,000.
