Richard Mille RM 011 Le Mans Classic Chronograph Limited Edition

Richard Mille has created a special chronograph timepiece to commemorate the high-end brand's involvement with the 2008 Le Mans Classic event, both as a primary sponsor and as official timekeeper.

The Richard Mille RM 011 Le Mans Classic Chronograph features a case manufactured from titanium, or a combination of titanium and 18K rose gold. Specially designed to pay tribute to the themes of the Le Mans Classic race, the dial of this exceptional timepiece features a green carbon fiber flange and a white and black checkered Le Mans Classic logo at the 12 o'clock position; transparent sections permit a glimpse of the underlying mechanism. A self-winding movement controls the various functions of this watch, which include a large date display, and a chronograph with 12-hour and 60-minute counters. A special feature--one sure to be appreciated by those in sports timing--is the flyback function, which allows rapid triggering of successive timing sequences.

The Richard Mille RM 011 Le Mans Classic Chronograph will be presented in a limited series of 200; 150 of these are in titanium, with the remaining 50 being in a combination of titanium and rose gold.
