This time RM have chosen a classic white and blue color scheme inspired by the glamorous playground of St-Tropez on the French Riviera. I love how RM use color to distinguish each of the RM 028's variants rather than just going with a dull caseback engraving as most do. But feel the best color is still yet to come . . . orange!
From RM With the start of summer, Richard Mille are ready to announce a new edition of the RM 028 divers’ watch, the RM 028 Saint-Tropez, available from official Richard Mille retailers (EMEA region) starting from July. The new RM 028 Saint-Tropez comes as a limited edition of just 10 pieces, its blue-and-white colour palette recalling Saint-Tropez’ glamorous destination and the French Riviera.
The classic white and blue colour-scheme takes direct inspiration from the world of yachting. The RM 028 round titanium case comes on a white rubber strap and features navy-blue numbers for the first quarter. The elegant white-blue colour scheme is similarly applied to outline the datebox at 7. The RM 028 Saint-Tropez boasts the same automatic-winding skeleton movement of the original model, an integrated variable geometry rotor and a water resistance of 300m.
