Dramatic aesthetics transform the functional elements of the new Richard Mille RM 27-02 into distinctive design features. The bezel and case back are cast from NTPT carbon and Quartz TPT, a groundbreaking new material designed and developed by Richard Mille in partnership with North Thin Ply Technology. QTPT is composed of over 600 layers of parallel filaments obtained from separating silica threads. The strength of this new compound can withstand showers of sweat and clay, and the running, sliding and lunging of Nadal’s very physical style of play while still keeping accurate time. Virtually indestructible and capable of resisting acceleration of more than 5,000 G, this ultra-streamlined timepiece is equally at home on or off the world’s greatest tennis courts.
