Available in a two-tone combination of white and Caribbean blue TPT quartz, this limited edition watch is perfect for event venues. In pursuit of exceptional durability, the RM 032 Voiles de Saint Barth is equipped with a grade 5 titanium case.

In contrast, the carbon fiber TPT lugs, inserts and caseback combined with a grade 5 titanium pusher that starts the chronograph and locks the rotating bezel bear the Les Voiles de Saint Barth Richard Mille stamp on the back.

The “peak” of high-end sports watches? TASTING THE RM 61-01 YOHAN BLAKE ULTIMATE EDITION

In the process of constantly learning about watches, I found that not only did I learn more and more, but the price of watching watches became higher and higher. Today, I will share this article with you. (Watch model: RM61-01)

The watch I saw came from the RM 61-01 Yohan Blake Ultimate Edition watch in the Richard Mille men’s collection.

Let’s first briefly understand the source of this watch. The first RM 61-01 Yohan Blake watch was born in 2014. Yohan Blake, a Jamaican sprinter, took a place in the celebrity list of track and field stars. If this is the first time you know this watch, you can probably understand its inspiration – a high-end sports watch specially developed for sports.

The RM 61-01 Yohan Blake Ultimate Edition we see now is the 2020 launch of Richard Mille and the finale of this model and its unique collection. The watch case is a big highlight. First of all, it is asymmetrical. The case is deliberately extended on one side from 2 o’clock to 5 o’clock, forming a “narrow left and wide right” shape. The main purpose of this design is not For the sake of curiosity, but to avoid friction between the crown and the sprinter’s wrist.

Another highlight of the case is the use of new materials. The bezel and case back of the RM 61-01 “Ultimate Edition” are made of Quartz TPT® and Carbon TPT®, a composite material that has gone through many hurdles: An extremely thin layer of silica, from which the quartz carbon fibers are separated, is soaked in a white resin, into which layers of carbon fibers are inserted and laminated by machine.

The fiber layers are then heated to 120 degrees Celsius under high pressure before being sent to Richard Mille’s factory for processing. The machining process creates random textures on this composite material, so each watch is unique.

So far, the case is finally finished. Finally, it is assembled with grade 5 titanium alloy spline screws and stainless steel washers to ensure a waterproof depth of 50 meters.

The crown is made of carbon fiber (Carbon TPT®) with an O-ring as a protection to ensure that the crown is not accidentally touched during movement.

Flange, usually refers to punching several holes around a disk-like metal body for connecting/fixing other things

The dial, with its built-in flange, is made of titanium and is galvanized black and painted in white lacquer. The hour markers and the front of the hour and minute hands are covered with fluorescent material.

In fact, the dial of the swiss watch is directly composed of the movement. The RM61-01 “Ultimate Edition” watch is equipped with the RMUL2 skeletonized manual winding movement, which provides about 55 hours of power.

This movement uses a grade 5 titanium baseplate and bridges, as we said earlier, this is a watch specially developed for sports applications, so the skeletonized baseplate and bridges have undergone an acceleration test of more than 5000 g to meet the Watches demand for high-intensity sports.

The variable inertia free-spring balance wheel ensures the reliability of the watch and long-term accuracy when the watch is subjected to vibration.

The movement also features a double barrel arrangement, which distributes the stored power to the two winding barrels, which increases the number of revolutions while reducing the stress on the teeth, etc., which improves stability.

For a long time, Richard Mille luxury has left everyone with the impression of “tough, cool, dazzling” and “million threshold”. This is true from the perspective of shape and market conditions, but I also seem to see its rigorous technical performance. and consideration of everyday practicality. In any case, the RM 61-01 Yohan Blake Ultimate Edition brings the perfect end to the 6-year career of this watch.

A Story Beyond Earth

For centuries, the tourbillon has been at the forefront of complex craftsmanship in watchmaking. Rotating on a plane, it attracts the attention of countless people, but the tourbillon has never broken through the limit of dimensions. However, the Astronomia celestial body series brought by Jacob & Co. has made a revolutionary breakthrough, making the plane tourbillon three-dimensional, allowing it to rotate and rotate in three directions. This multi-axis tourbillon undoubtedly makes the timepiece more accurate, and it is like a cosmic creature floating on the wrist, bringing infinite shock.

Origin, three-axis tourbillon
Jacob Alebo, founder of replica Jacob & Co., had no interest in following the example of tourbillons of other brands, so he chose the flying tourbillon as the initial creative starting point and revolutionized the tradition of the watchmaking industry. Launch of the Astronomia watch with an unprecedented gravitational three-axis tourbillon.swiss watch replicas

The Jacob & Co. Jackpot Astronomia has four “satellite” arms that make one revolution around the dial every 10 minutes.

The first of the four arms is connected to the three-axis tourbillon, which rotates in 60 seconds on the first axis, two and a half minutes on the second axis, and circles the dial in 10 minutes on the third axis.

The second “satellite” is actually a 288-faceted Jack & Bowie exclusive cut diamond that rotates on its axis in 30 seconds and circles the dial in 10 minutes. The diamonds are cut and shaped by hand, and each diamond has 288 individual facets. The exclusive Jack & Bowie cut diamonds used in the Astronomia watch need to ensure their roundness and weight with the “satellites” attached to the other three arms (time display, three-axis tourbillon, magnesium globe) Keep the weight consistent, if there is any discrepancy, it will be declared scrapped. This exclusive Jack & Bao cut diamond takes two weeks of dedicated effort to create one, absolutely meticulous work.cheap luxury watches

The third “satellite”, directly opposite the tourbillon, is the time display, which circles the dial every 10 minutes. This was another challenge for the designers, engineers and watchmakers of Jacob & Co. Jack & Co. to make the time display sub-dial rotate around the watch at the same time, if the 12/6 o’clock position is not correct, then It will greatly increase the difficulty of reading time for people. In order to solve this problem, Jake & Bao designed a unique patented differential transmission system to ensure that when the time display disk rotates around the dial, its 12/6 o’clock position is always facing the watch holder.

The fourth “satellite” is a miniature magnesia spray-painted earth, which rotates in 30 seconds and takes 10 minutes to circle the dial.

The three-axis tourbillon rotates non-stop around the dial, so watchmakers need to keep the weight of each tourbillon accurate, otherwise it will affect several other arms of the Astronomia. Although the three-axis tourbillon of the Astronomia series is very complicated to manufacture, it is definitely a visual feast, and it is also one of the many reasons why the Jacob & Co. Jackpot watch is unique in the world of watches.
