Diameter Signed : Case, dial and movement signed Accessories : With Richard Mille display winding presentation box, additional Mille leather carrying pouch, original warranty dated 14 May, 2017, leather envelope and product literature. Catalogue Essay Richard Mille has long been associated with sporting celebrities from Rafael Nadal to Bubba Watson, and with the Mille Yohan Blake RM59-01 and RM061-01 “The Beast 2” they have created some of their most uniquely recognizable watches available. The Jamaican sprinter wore a special tourbillon Mille watch during the finals of the 100M sprint in the London 2012 Olympics, coming in Silver behind his compatriot Usain Bolt. Even more amazing, Blake became the only runner to have the fastest non-winning time, when he again came in second place to Bolt in the finals of the 200M, with a time of 19.44 seconds. In 2013 Mille released the RM59-01 an asymmetrical tourbillon watch sporting the colors of the Jamaican team. Called “The Beast” for Blake’s signature move, Mille has chosen to name the models “The Beast” and The Beast 2” respectively. The present watch, the RM61-01 is made from Ceramic, and like its predecessor is lightweight with flying bridges in the colors of the Jamaican team. The TZP black ceramic is composed from Zirconium and the stabilizing agent Yttrium, and therefore light and durable. The caseband is made from NTPT carbon a multi-layered fiber impregnated with resin and heated under pressure. The asymmetrical case is meant to be aerodynamic like the sprinter, and the skeletonized case allows one to see the intricate movement. In excellent overall condition, the present watch is sure to be a fan of the Richard Mille brand. Read More Maker Bio Richard Mille Swiss • 1999 Follow Established in 1999, Richard Mille's ultra-modern timepieces combine cutting-edge materials from high performance worlds such as Formula 1 racecars with high-end traditional watchmaking. The brand's revolutionary designs, technical breakthroughs and exceptional hand-finishing excite even the most discriminating collectors, and have positioned Richard Mille alongside the top makers of the modern luxury watch world. Innovative watches, such as the RM 027 Tourbillon, which was the world’s lightest mechanical watch when introduced in 2011, have helped the brand invert the concept of the luxury watch. Key models include the RM 009 Tourbillon cased in Aluminum Silicon Carbide (AlSiC), the RM 027-02 Tourbillon made for tennis star Rafael Nadal with a case made from quartz and carbon fiber and the RM 008 split seconds chronograph.
