Description
Designed exclusively for a full sapphire case, the RM75-01 calibre features both a flying tourbillon and a flying barrel, suspended within a fully skeletonised movement that allows light and structure to dance in perfect harmony.
The case itself is a triumph of micrometric craftsmanship: a tripartite construction in synthetic sapphire, engineered for both exceptional clarity and resilience. Each component undergoes more than 1,000 hours of precision machining and polishing, resulting in a crystal-clear form that is as robust as it is visually arresting. This interplay of high-performance mechanics and transparent material reflects influences drawn from both ancient architectural forms and cutting-edge material science.
Offered in three limited-edition variations, the RM 75-01 expresses an aquatic spirit through carefully curated colors and textures. The clear sapphire version, paired with a sea-green strap, mirrors the shimmering surface of sunlit waters. Two other interpretations introduce colored sapphire casebacks—one in lilac pink, evoking twilight skies over still seas, and the other in a rich sapphire blue, echoing the profound depths of the ocean. Each model offers a sensory contrast between the cool smoothness of sapphire and the warm, intricate framework of titanium and red gold housed within.
Beneath the transparency lies a technical paradox: a movement that is both feather-light and structurally complex. A titanium baseplate, coated in 5N gold PVD, supports rhodium-plated wheels and a carefully sculpted bridge system designed to maximize dimensionality while minimizing mass. Architectural cues—like the ribbed flange and Gothic-inspired symmetry—anchor the design, creating a dynamic visual depth enhanced by SuperLuminova elements that glow with kinetic brilliance in changing light.
More than a timepiece, the RM 75-01 Flying Tourbillon Sapphire is a spatial experience—where every facet, curve, and contour reveals a seamless fusion of mechanical ingenuity and artistic expression.
