2012 - This is the watch Nadal was wearing when he won the French Open on June 10th, 2012 - making that 7 straight titles in a row.
In their quest to take watch-making to new levels super high-end watch maker Richard Mille, in conjunction with tennis superstar Rafael Nadal, have created the all new RM 027 Tourbillon.
A watch that is so light (just 20 grams with the strap on!) that Nadal actually wears it when he plays on court!
Richard Mille has been experimenting with the concept of weight reduction in haute horology since the very conception of the brand
The RM 027 watchcase, composed of a composite containing large amounts of carbon, provides a tough and resilient enclosure for the tourbillon movement at its center
However, the biggest endorsement of all is that this piece has been tried and tested by a man renowned for refusing to compromise when it comes to his sport and his performance
The fact that Rafael Nadal has agreed to wear this piece in all of his matches says far more than any technical specifications ever could, as it is unusual for a tennis player to wear a watch during matches.
The RM 027 Tourbillon is a limited edition of 50 pieces with an ultra light strap in polyurethane, flexible and extremely comfortable.
On September 22nd, 2011 HSH Prince Albert II of Monaco will preside over the fourth Only Watch auction of exceptional watches.
The proceeds of this event, organized by Antiquorum Auctioneers, will be used to fund research into Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
Having supported Only Watch from the beginning, Richard Mille wanted to donate one of its most emblematic creations to Only Watch 2011: the RM 027 tourbillon developed for and in collaboration with Rafael Nadal.
Nadal has worn this watch in every match he has played since 2010, which is unique in the history of tennis.
The RM 027 to be auctioned is the very watch worn by Rafael Nadal when he won the 2011 Monte Carlo championships for the seventh year running.
