The RM011 Felipe Massa was developed in collaboration with the Brazilian Formula One racing driver Felipe Massa. A year was spent developing this contemporary masterpiece, which requires 202 separate machining operations to finish the case to such a high standard. The machine tooling process requires 8 days of adjusting the machines for the bezel, 5 days for the centre and another 5 days for the case back. The watch houses a double barrel system and alpine screws for the bridge and case to improve torque stability. The design is based on the construction premise of Formula 1 racing cars whereby the chassis and engine have to work together in perfect harmony.
