Expanding the minute show from the usual 120 certifications (as seen in the Urwerk UR-100, for example) into a 240° arc required the emergences of an entirely new mechanism to control the increased dynamic makes generated. Richard Mille RM 67-02 Extra Flat

This specific technical feat was attained using a speed regulator attached to the UR-150 flywheel, some sort of mechanism normally used to manage the sequence of the mins in a minute repeater. This timepiece is driven by the programmed UR-50. 01 movement, which usually runs at a frequency regarding 4 Hz (28, 700 vibrations per hour) and will be offering a power reserve of 43 hours.

The particular automatic winding system comes with a double set of turbines built to absorb the impact of the one and prevent it from impacting the arbors. replica luxury watches
