Description
Richard Mille RM56-02 Sapphire Tourbillon
RM 56-02 TOURBILLON SAPPHIRE
In this fashion the baseplate of the RM 56-02, created from grade 5 titanium, is entirely suspended within the sapphire watchcase by specially developed single braided cable of only 0.35mm thickness, woven within a system of 4 pulleys on posts at the movement’s corners and another 6 pulleys placed along the movement’s periphery. The tension of the cable is perfectly controlled by a miniature ratchet at 9 o’clock.
This entire cable unit is attached to a separate indicator located below 12 o’clock allowing an easy visual inspection of the cable tension, to ensure that it is always operating within the designated norms.
Other parts of the movement have also been optimized for transparency thanks to the experience gained with the aforementioned versions; in this case Richard Mille’s engineers have added to the previous use of sapphire movement parts a new design of winding barrel bridge, tourbillon and center bridges in sapphire. This fluently executed technical challenge is a crowning achievement of the sapphire family of timepieces within the high scaled variety of creativity to be found within the Richard Mille collection as an entity.
Sapphire, created from subjecting aluminum oxide crystals (Al2O3) to high pressure and temperature environments, is transparent due to the purity of its composition and has a hardness of 1800 Vickers (9 Mohs) making it virtually scratch resistant by materials other than diamond.
The tripartite case of the RM 56-02 is milled and ground from blocks of solid sapphire by the prestigious and highly specialized experts Stettler in Lyss, Switzerland, who had the difficult task of creating these movement parts and the unique, wrist hugging, ergonomically curving tripartite Richard Mille case. These engineering and technical challenges are self evident when we examine the reality of creating something inimitable like the RM 56-02: 40 days, 24/7 of continuous machining are required in order to produce one case followed by 400 hours of machining and finishing for the different movement bridges.
Calibre RM56-02: manual winding tourbillon movement with hours, minutes and tension indicator.

WARRANTY
THE VAULT Warranty
2-Year Limited Warranty
This warranty, provided by THE VAULT, covers the mechanical functions of your automatic watch, including (but not limited to) issues such as running fast/slow or inexplicably stopping functioning. You have a full two years from the date of purchase to send your watch back for servicing. This warranty is applicable exclusively to watches purchased from THE VAULT website. THE VAULT does not make representations on behalf of any watch manufacturer.
Our warranty is comparable to any manufacturer's warranty, with the distinction being that the service will be performed at THE VAULT's location. We employ expert watchmakers qualified to work on all major brands, utilizing factory-authorized replacement parts whenever applicable. Evidence of abuse beyond the factory-specified tolerances will void this warranty. All watches meet the manufacturer’s water resistance specifications, and maintaining the watch crown closed is crucial for preserving this water resistance and preventing damage to the movement.
Warranty Exclusions:
- This warranty excludes any water damage due to a loose and/or open crown.
- Damage to the crystal due to regular wear is not covered.
- Replacement of quartz watch batteries is not offered under this warranty.
Authenticity: All watches sold on THE VAULT website are verified authentic and in working condition. We do not sell replica watches. "Unworn" watches include the original box, instruction booklet, and warranty paperwork/card (unless otherwise noted in the description). "Pre-owned" watches, also verified authentic with no aftermarket parts, are in good working condition but may not include the original box or warranty paperwork. Individual listings will specify what is included with the watch. In lieu of an original box, THE VAULT will provide a store watch box for listings without one.
THE VAULT is not an authorized dealer of the watch brands we sell. We obtain our watches from reputable sources dealing directly with authorized dealers and distributors. The watches may be in "unworn" or "unused" condition or "previously owned." In the absence of condition notes, the customer will assume the watch is "previously owned." THE VAULT makes no representations regarding the validity of any manufacturer’s warranties and does not act as a representative for customers to any watch manufacturers. Any warranties offered by THE VAULT are strictly through the website using our own authorized watchmakers.
