Catalogue Essay
The RM29 was created with the goal to improve watch ergonomics and make the date window more legible. Released in 2011, the watch has exceptional lines and is highly functional. The casing ring was removed and the movement mounted on a chassis with mounting rubbers adding to overall stability and reliability. A second innovative feature is the rotor with variable geometry that allows the mainspring to adapt to the activity level of the wearer, so adjustments can be made to speed up the winding process during minimal movement or slowed down during period of high activity. The grade 5 titanium with Titalylt treatment provides greater stability. In each and every case the finishing to the timepiece is extraordinary with baseplates and bridges hand-ground, pivots burnished, pinions undercut and sandblasting to the movement.
The present watch is in excellent original condition and complete with guarantee and winding box. For collectors who seek to look beyond the 21st century, the RM 29 is an ideal piece.
