Elite 1,399 Gemstone Mosaic Artistry & Multi-Planar Art Deco Tonneau Geometry
The technical case construction of the RM HJ-02 Green Gambit stands as a profound achievement in modern haute joaillerie engineering, requiring more than a year of continuous development to perfect its silhouette. Departing from conventional single-curve structures, its authoritative 34 x 52mm dimensionsincorporate sharp planar transitions, layered architectural levels, and bold asymmetrical interruptions that draw from Art Deco’s geometric vocabulary while preserving Richard Mille’s technical high-performance DNA.
The case surface serves as a canvas for an incredible mosaic of 1,399 precious and ornamental stonesdistributed through intricate snow, grain, and bezel-setting techniques. A masterfully curated palette of rubies, sapphires, diamonds, emeralds, and Paraíba tourmalines works alongside natural hardstones like malachite, chrysoprase, turquoise, and shimmering mother-of-pearl. This geometric composition forces light to shift between absolute opacity, saturation, and radiant reflection depending on the viewing angle. Accounted for from initial micro-boring to final quality control, each individual timepiece demands approximately 700 hours of dedicated master gem-setting hand-labor.
Calibre CRMT2 – An In-House Convergence of Automatic Tourbillon & Precious Metrology
At the beating heart of this pristine treasure lies the high-performance automatic winding movement Calibre CRMT2, developed in absolute parallel with the housing and dial to secure seamless structural integration from the very first sketch. Visible through the front crystal and the sapphire open case back, the open-worked Artistic Skeleton Dial displays an immaculate white gold baseplate and gear-train bridges, completely gem-set and detailed with micro-filled, hand-beveled, and rhodium-plated edge finishes. The central weighted automatic rotor is crafted from solid gold and heavily set with gems, functioning as a beautiful kinetic micro-sculpture. Simultaneously, the variable-inertia tourbillon regulating organ and the fast-rotating twin mainspring barrel remain perfectly legible through the technical composition, never obscured by the lavish jewelry display.
The Grand Confluence of Radiant Green Opulence and Sovereign Prestige
The visual execution of the RM HJ-02 Green Gambit edition redefines the frontier of fine contemporary high-jewelry watchmaking, converting a high-complication mechanical timepiece into a statement of pure personal authority. Paired with a premium green alligator leather strap and a matching white gold folding clasp, the watch displays an opulent, regal monochrome aesthetic that frames a commanding lifestyle. Engineered with a robust structure securing a 50-meter water resistance, this landmark release belongs to a legendary, highly restricted international series capped at only 12 unique total examples worldwide. Its condition profile is strictly designated as New (Brand New / New Model Release), standing as a premier destination asset sought after by elite global connoisseurs.
