Richard Mille RM052

Manual winding tourbillon movement with hours and minutes where the baseplate and bridges take the form of a grade 5 titanium skull. The upper and lower jaws hold the ruby of the tourbillon cage, and the back of the skull is the movement's center bridge. A visualisation of vanitas vanitatum concepts - the 'promise of eternity' and need to enjoy life. The movement is connected to the case by 4 bridges inspired by crossed bones from pirate flags. Limited editions.
