Charles finally got his own special edition Richard Mille!
Preserving its place as one of the most advanced and innovative watch brands ever created, Richard Mille prides itself on engineering luxury timepieces that withstand the abuse of the world’s most demanding sports. From the tennis court to the cycling circuit, and everywhere in between, top Richard Mille athletes sport rare and desirable RM watch models while performing on the world’s biggest stages. But if Richard Mille is the topic of conversation, there’s no denying that Formula 1 stands out as one of the most recognized sports in which the Swiss watchmaker is involved. As a nod to its partnership with Scuderia Ferrari HP F1 and team driver Charles Leclerc, Richard Mille is pleased to present an all-new limited edition RM 72-01 Flyback Chronograph.
Notoriously seen wearing the RM 72-01 both on and off the race track, the 27-year-old French racing driver finally received his very own version of his favorite watch. In a sport where weight savings is the main objective to help secure a top spot on the grid, the lightweight Carbon TPT case features a vibrant white and red colorway as a nod to Ferrari’s iconic colors. Rose gold accents highlight the skeletonized dial design and the watch’s intricate chronograph subdial layout, bridging the gap between ultra-luxury and motorsport functionality. The transparent backcase offers a secondary view of Richard Mille’s in-house flyback chronograph movement and commemorative engravings that signify Charles Leclerc’s exclusive collection limited to only 150 pieces. With names like Richard Mille, Scuderia Ferrari, and Charles Leclerc wrapped into one watch, there’s no doubt that this RM 72-01 will be an instant collector’s piece among horologists and motorsport fans.
