TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS OF THE RICHARD MILLE<br />
LADIES’ WATCH <strong>RM</strong> <strong>007</strong><br />
The ladies’ watch has be<strong>en</strong> conceived and created to the same exacting standards as the<br />
Richard Mille range of watches for m<strong>en</strong>. Despite the fact that this mechanical watch is easy<br />
to wear, its movem<strong>en</strong>t is nevertheless highly sophisticated and extremely reliable.<br />
CALIBER <strong>RM</strong> <strong>007</strong>: Automatic movem<strong>en</strong>t with unique pat<strong>en</strong>ted rotor system containing<br />
18-carat gold micro-balls bearings. Functions: hours, minutes, date.<br />
Dim<strong>en</strong>sions: 45 mm long x 31 mm (widest point) x 10.9 (thickest area).<br />
MAIN FEATURES<br />
(MANY OF WHICH ARE MAJOR TECHNICAL INNOVATIONS)<br />
BI-DIRECTIONAL AUTOMATIC WINDING<br />
The rotor is fitted with an auto-reverse system integrated into the rotor ball bearing.<br />
This pat<strong>en</strong>ted system is the result of a technical, high performance solution.<br />
The main characteristics are the minimal amount of space it occupies and the narrow dead reverse<br />
angle of only 7° wh<strong>en</strong> the rotor changes direction.<br />
18-CARAT GOLD ROTOR WITH MICRO-BALL COMPARTMENT<br />
- 18-carat gold, satin-finished and hand polished surfaces with hand anglage<br />
- Rotor segm<strong>en</strong>t in 18-carat sandblasted gold with weight comprising more than 100 18-carat gold<br />
micro-balls within a transpar<strong>en</strong>t, PVD coated container.<br />
- Sapphire crystal, with anti-glare treatm<strong>en</strong>t on both sides<br />
- Grade 5 titanium screws<br />
- 18-carat gold micro-balls<br />
This exclusive RICHARD MILLE innovation allows effici<strong>en</strong>t rewinding of the mainspring by the optimal<br />
inertial force created. The free moving micro-balls in 18-carat gold found inside the compartm<strong>en</strong>t serve<br />
to absorb excess <strong>en</strong>ergy in case of shocks. In this way large shockwaves that normally could have<br />
devastating effects on the rotor are therefore reduced and this safeguards the system’s mechanism.<br />
DATE DISPLAY<br />
Vertical date aperture at 6 o’clock, with sapphire crystal cal<strong>en</strong>dar disc treated with anti-glare coating<br />
on both sides.<br />
GRADE 5 TITANIUM SPLINE SCREWS<br />
This permits better control of the torque applied to the screws during assembly. These screws are<br />
therefore unaffected by physical manipulation during assembly or disassembly and age well.<br />
NEW GEAR TEETH PROFILE<br />
The c<strong>en</strong>tral involute profile of the teeth promotes effective rotary motion and allows the<br />
comp<strong>en</strong>sation of possible variations in the <strong>en</strong>gagem<strong>en</strong>t of the going train. This insures excell<strong>en</strong>t<br />
torque transmission with a distinct improvem<strong>en</strong>t in performance.<br />

WATCHCASE<br />
The design and execution of the watch demonstrate a complete conceptual approach to the<br />
movem<strong>en</strong>t, case and dial. As a result, everything has be<strong>en</strong> constructed according to an extremely<br />
rigorous specification, in the manner of the data processing used in the design of Formula 1 racing<br />
cars where the chassis and the <strong>en</strong>gine are developed in complete harmony. For example, a casing<br />
ring is no longer used and the movem<strong>en</strong>t is mounted on chassis mounting rubbers (ISO SW) fixed<br />
by 4 titanium screws. Features such as these are evid<strong>en</strong>ce of uncompromising workmanship.<br />
The tripartite case is water resistant to 50 meters, <strong>en</strong>sured by three Nitril O-ring seals with tube<br />
driv<strong>en</strong> in and glued.<br />
Assembly with spline screws (12) in grade 5 titanium and abrasion resistant washers in copper-nickelzinc<br />
alloy.<br />
