Innovation as a Passion

The Calibre RM017 is a tourbillon movement that serves as a beacon of mechanical innovation. Crafted with grade 5 titanium for the baseplate and bridges, the movement boasts exceptional rigidity and corrosion resistance—a material profile favored by aerospace and automotive industries. The skeletonized construction undergoes rigorous validation tests, ensuring the gear train functions with effortless precision while offering a window into the complex mechanical heart of the watch.

Advanced Functionality

The power-reserve indicator at 2 o’clock provides a visual gauge of the energy remaining in the mainspring, ensuring optimal winding. The function indicator at 4 o’clock, styled like a car’s gearbox, clearly identifies the crown’s current position (Winding, Neutral, Hand-setting). A free-sprung balance with variable inertia guarantees superior chronometric reliability over extended periods, even when subjected to shocks or movement handling. The fast-rotating barrel increases performance by reducing internal mainspring adhesion, maintaining a superior power/performance ratio.

Holistic Design Philosophy

The design and execution of the RM 17-01 follow a holistic approach, where the movement, case, and dial are conceived in complete harmony, much like the chassis and engine of a Formula 1 car. The movement is mounted on chassis mounting rubbers (ISO SW) and fixed with grade 5 titanium screws, eliminating the need for a traditional casing ring. The torque-limiting crown adds a layer of security, preventing accidental overwinding and protecting the integrity of the movement.
