Richard Mille RM055 Bubba Watson Manual Winding White Ceramic
Reference: RM055
The Richard Mille RM055 Bubba Watson Tourbillon Men’s Watch features a mechanical movement crafted in grade 5 titanium, displaying extreme skeletonization. With its innovative design, sporty appeal, and meticulous hand-finishing, the RM055 is a highly technical creation that embodies the finest traditions of watchmaking.
Precision Engineering and Design
The mechanical movement of the RM 055 is constructed using grade 5 titanium, which not only offers exceptional strength but also showcases a stunning skeletonized design. The baseplate and bridges of the movement undergo a special PVD and Titalyt® treatment, ensuring rigidity and precise surface flatness. These features are crucial for the smooth functioning of the gear train.
Rigorous Testing and Durability
The skeletonized baseplate and bridges of the Richard Mille RM055 Bubba Watson have undergone intensive validation tests to maximize their resistance capabilities. As a result, the Caliber RMUL2 movement can withstand accelerations of over 5000 g’s, making it highly durable and reliable.
Enhanced Chronometric Performance
The RM 055 incorporates a free-sprung balance that enhances reliability during shocks, movement assembly or disassembly. Additionally, the elimination of the regulator index allows for more accurate and repeatable calibration. The balance also features four small adjustable weights directly on it, enabling precise timekeeping.
Double-Barrel System for Long-Term Performance
To improve torque stability over time, the Richard Mille RM055 Bubba Watson utilizes a double-barrel system. This design distributes the stored energy across two winding barrels instead of one, reducing pressure on the teeth, bearings, and pivots. The result is better long-term performance and increased rotations.
Watches
To care for your watch, gently wipe it with a soft microfiber cloth after each wear to remove sweat, oils, and dust. Rinse it with fresh water after exposure to salt or chlorine, and always ensure the crown is securely closed before doing so. Avoid sudden temperature changes, strong magnetic fields, and direct contact with chemicals or perfumes. If not worn daily, wind it manually every few days to keep the movement lubricated and running smoothly. Clean the metal bracelet occasionally with mild soap, warm water, and a soft brush, avoiding abrasives or ultrasonic cleaners. Have the water resistance and seals checked regularly—typically every 1–2 years—and schedule a full professional service every 5–10 years. Store the watch in a dry, padded case or watch box away from humidity and extreme temperatures, and let it run periodically to maintain its precision and longevity.
