[Novelty] Richard Mille RM063-02 World Timer
Hi everyone,
You certainly remember Richard Mille launched at the 2013 SiHH the RM058-01 World Timer Tourbillon. It was back then the first World Timer reference of the brand.
This time, we have here a non-Tourbillon version of this quite successful complication nowadays: the RM063-02 World Timer
By the way, this RM063-02 has nothing to do with the RM063-01 (not even the same size).
The case (47 x 13.85 mm) and crown are made of Titanium.

The caliber CRMA3 with Oversized Date and World Timer complications has a 50 hours power reserve, whcih is perfect for an automatic caliber. It also includes the selector feature to wind and set the watch.
The particular setting of the World Timer moduls is made through the bezel which is directly connected to the hour hand, while the lower 24H ring (in white and blue for day and night indication) shows the time in other cities.

As in many of RM's models, baseplate and bridges are in grade-5 Titanium.
The rotor is in Rose Gold and Titanium.
A big watch (similar to the Diver references) and which however seems to be, as usual for Richard Mille, very well finished and with interesting technical features as for the World Timer modules for instance or the setting selector.
Cheers, Mark

I had similar thought: Does that mean this watch can counter for the difference caused by day light saving time? If so, FINALLY a world time watch that would prove useful THROUGHOUT the year!
IF it's

Just the arrow indicator whereas the user needs to remember WHEN to use the arrow and WHEN not to use the arrow, then it's NOT a mechanism/complication BUILT for the purpose of solving the DST issues. Not exactly user friendly IMHO.
Indeed.

Automated recognition of daylight savings shifts would indeed be epic but this is I guess better than nothing. Not even Vacheron\'s 57 complication miracle achieved the automation feat I believe. I think the dst shift is a different day each year so it is...

I see, concerning many differnt watches, that there are very different feelings about sizes. There is no absolute right choice: it depends on our wrist's size, what we are used to seeing on our wrist, the culture etc.... Older generations tend to like sma...
