Richard Mille RM011 FQ Felipe Massa Red Tpt Quartz Automatic Flyback Chronograph

Inspired by the Brazilian racing driver Felipe Massa, the Richard Mille RM011 FQ Felipe Massa Red TPT Quartz Automatic Flyback Chronograph is a remarkable timepiece. Known for his 15-year career in Formula One (F1), Massa was the first sports figure to join the Richard Mille family. This watch reflects the precision and engineering excellence associated with both Massa and Richard Mille.

Case and Materials

The watch features a tonneau-shaped case crafted from Red Quartz TPT (Thin Ply Technology) Carbon. This material is known for its strength and lightweight properties, similar to the materials used in designing Formula One cars. The case is 44mm in size and showcases a curved bezel, sides, and back, which is typical of Richard Mille’s design. The fixed bezel is made of Red TPT titanium, providing durability and a striking appearance.

Dial and Crystal

The skeletonized dial is protected by an anti-glare sapphire crystal. This dial offers an annular calendar display with an oversized date under the 12 o’clock position and a month display between 4 and 5 o’clock. The intricate design includes small seconds, a 60-minute countdown timer, and a 12-hour totalizer.

Movement

Powered by the caliber RM011-S skeletonized automatic winding movement, the watch boasts a power reserve of approximately 55 hours without the chronograph running. The movement is visible through the skeletonized dial, highlighting the intricate craftsmanship and engineering.

Unique Features

The crown, crafted from grade 5 titanium, is designed to resemble a smooth tire encircling a spoked wheel rim, paying homage to Formula One cars. The red rubber strap complements the red case and adds a vibrant touch to the overall design. The strap is secured with a double folding clasp, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit.
