Check out the bright and conspicuous casings on this Richard Mille Sapphire collection

RM Sapphire Collection
Richard Mille

Richard Mille has been setting the standard with its colorful designs. A few years ago, RM rolled out watches inspired by candies, which had a high demand. And just like candies, everyone wanted a piece.

Thanks to the conspicuous materials, this collection plays with color and redefines the conventional way of doing things. Apparently, this is not RM’s first time — the brand has been coming up with new ways of doing things. For instance, RM manufactured an entire casing from sapphire 12 years ago.

The material is constructed with heavy-duty machines due to its hard properties — a lot of effort goes into this whole process. It might take 1,000 hours to do everything right, from molding to polishing.

Well, Richard Mille has gone back to its old ways. It added the lilac timepiece to the collection, which is now made up of four different watches with these colors — fuchsia, lilac, green, and pink.

Since this model is made from sapphire, it offers beautiful views of the mechanism. The open-work arrangement is complemented by a wide variety of different stones, from blue sapphires, white agate, and yellow sapphires to malachite.

Apart from that, the movement is also manufactured from luxurious materials. For starters, a certain section of the caliber is constructed from 18-karat gold, and it’s topped off by diamonds to make the whole timepiece more stylish. While the caliber is constructed from high-end materials, it is quite powerful too — it offers a power reserve of 50 hours.

Only 28 pieces have been constructed, and each color variant has seven watches.

The military styles of the past, which include garments like a Vietnam utility shirt, a WWII flight jacket, or a peacoat from Navy origins. The workwear looks feature old railway-striped jackets and selvage denim, and you could never go wrong with a good pair of coveralls. And finally, you have the vintage looks of suspenders, flat caps, cardigans, and loose-fitting pleated trousers. Olderbest brings together a collection of brands, including Bronson MFG. CO., Remains Clothing, and Time Catcher Clothing.
