The house of Richard Mille celebrates the 9th edition of the Le Mans Classic with a brand new timepiece - RM 11-03 Le Mans Classic (LMC). The biennial vintage sports car event held on the grounds of the 24 Hours of Le Mans will take place from the 6th - 8th July 2018. Richard Mille, the official partner of the sporting event, will also be on the racing ground, accompanied by Sébastien Loeb, Felipe Massa and McLaren.
Traditionally, Richard Mille will present the special new timepiece created especially for this event – the sporty RM 11-03 LMC, available in a limited and numbered edition of only 150 pieces!
The new Le Mans Classic watch is the first Richard Mille RM 11-03 in white ceramic. This flyback chronograph is housed in a three-part tonneau case (49.94 mm x 44.50 mm x 16.15 mm) and adorned with green detailing evocative of the luxury British sports car and supercar creator McLaren Automotive. A nod to the world of sport car racing can be found in several details: the groove of the pushers evokes the look of vintage pedals, the precision-machined crown, the Le Mans Logo at 12 o’clock position, and the number 16 - the start time of the endurance race - highlighted in red on the 24-hour counter at 6 o’clock. The dial also reveals an oversized date display at 12 o’clock, joined with a month display located between 4 and 5 o’clock.
The rear side of the watch features a see-through sapphire crystal, allowing the wearer to admire a satin-brushed PVD-coated lower bridge providing a contrasting backdrop for the double barrel system and the variable-geometry rotor crafted from titanium. The movement beats at a frequency of 28,800 vph, ensuring at least 55 hours of power reserve. The rotor is equipped with a mechanism that allows it to be adjusted to suit the wearer's activities, so it can never be over-wound.
The new Richard Mille RM 11-03 Le Mans Classic 2018 will be officially launched during the 2018 Le Mans weekend this upcoming July. For more information, please visit richardmille.com.
