Cycling Watch - Richard Mille RM 70-01 Tourbillon Alain Prost

The titanium case of Richard Mille RM 70-01 Tourbillon Alain Prost is 49.48mm wide, 54.88mm tall, and 17.65mm thick. This isn't the first asymmetric Richard Mille watch (I think one of the Yohan Blake models was), but the RM 70-01 is certainly the first that will catch most people's attention https://www.twatchclone.ru/.

This is "exclusively" a "lefty watch," which of course means the RM 70-01 is designed to be worn on your right wrist. This is because the shape means that the crown isn't going to poke into your hand. This is especially an issue given the arm and hand position of a cyclist, where without a design such as this, a painful crown could be an issue. It remains to be seen how many people like this watch and also happen to be those people who wear watches on their right, versus left wrist.

The manually-wound 3Hz tourbillon-escapement caliber RM07-01 movement has 70 hours of power reserve and indicates just the time. Most of the movement architecture is produced from titanium, and its appeal is very much in the design.
