Only 150 pieces will be made.
In an age where people are happy to queue up for smartwatches that can measure your heart rate, make video calls and even let you play games, it would be hard to imagine why somebody would want a winding watch that only displays the time. But at 1.
You would be surprised that the record for the world's thinnest watch was broken only three months ago when Bulgari debuted its Octo Finnissino Ultra in March this year. At 1.80 mm thickness, Bulgari displaced Piaget, which had held the record since 2018, when it introduced its version of the thinnest watch at 2 mm thickness.
The difference in thickness between the Bulgari and the RM UP-01 Ferrari might just be 0.05 mm but it needed a wholly creative design team to get it done.The design has been made possible by the efforts of Swiss luxury watchmaker Richard Mille and the motorsports racing team Ferrari.
The resultant movement is one that looks skeletonized but is strong enough to withstand accelerations of 5,000Gs, Hondikee reported. The designers have also done away with the base plate and secured the main plate and the movement inside a closed case made from Grade 5 titanium. In addition to providing a lightweight casing, this metal also offers features for On the face of it, you will get a watch that shows hours, minutes, and seconds and a function selector which allows the user to pick between winding or setting functions.
