Integrated RMUL2 movement, slim case design RICHARDMILLE Richard Mille RM 61-01 Yohan Blake Ultimate Edition watch. Let's take a brief look at the origin of this watch. The first RM 61-01 Yohan Blake watch was born in 2014. Yohan Blake is a Jamaican sprinter who occupies a place in the celebrity list of track and field stars. If this is the first time you know this watch, you can probably understand its inspiration-a high-end sports watch developed specifically for sports. This RM 61-01 Yohan Blake Ultimate Edition watch was launched by Richard Mille in 2020, and it is also the finale of this style and its unique series. The watch case is a highlight. First of all, it is an asymmetrical shape. The case is deliberately extended on one side from 2 o'clock to 5 o'clock, forming a "narrow on the left and wide on the right" shape. The main purpose of this design is not for curiosity, but to avoid friction between the crown and the sprinter's wrist. Another highlight of the case is the use of new materials. The bezel and bottom cover are made of quartz carbon fiber (Quartz TPT®) and carbon fiber (Carbon TPT®). The production of this composite material can be said to have gone through many stages: the first step is to soak extremely thin silica (quartz carbon fiber is separated from it) in white resin, then insert carbon fiber layers into it and stack them by machine. Then, after the fiber layers are heated to 120 degrees Celsius under high pressure, they are sent to Richard Mille's factory for processing. The processing process will form a random texture on this composite material, so each watch is unique. Finally, it is assembled with grade 5 titanium spline screws and stainless steel washers to ensure a water resistance of 50 meters. The crown is made of carbon fiber (Carbon TPT®) and has an O-ring as a protective device to ensure that the crown will not be accidentally touched during movement. Anti-glare sapphire crystal glass. The RM61-01 "Final Edition" watch is equipped with the RMUL2 hollow manual winding movement, which provides about 55 hours of power.
