Design & Case

Tonneau Case Geometry

• Dimensions: 42.7 × 49.9 × 13.05 mm tonneau‑shaped case, offering a bold wrist presence yet ergonomic comfort. 

• Materials & Finish: Sand‑blasted Grade 5 titanium caseband and case back; shot‑blasted titanium‑carbide bezel with polished bevels on edges; proprietary five‑pronged spline screws securing the case face. 

• Limited Edition: Produced in a run of just 50 pieces, signaling extreme exclusivity. 

Movement & Performance

RMUL2 Skeleton Caliber

• Construction: Fully skeletonized manual‑wind caliber RMUL2 in Grade 5 titanium; baseplate and bridges treated with PVD and Titalyt® for optimum rigidity and surface flatness. 

• Shock Resistance: Engineered to withstand over 500 g’s of acceleration, ideal for Bubba Watson’s powerful golf drives. 

• Beat Rate & Weight: Runs at 28,800 vph (4 Hz); the 3.15 mm‑thick movement weighs merely ~4.3 g, maximizing comfort. 

Dial & Strap

Skeletonized Display

• Open‑worked Aesthetic: No dial plate—just the movement visible under a sapphire crystal front, with gear train and balance wheel on full display. 

• Grey Rubber Strap: Boutique Grey edition includes a matching grey rubber strap, combining sporty resilience (sweat‑ and UV‑resistant) with luxurious comfort. 

Wearability & Everyday Use

Lightweight & Robust

• Comfort: Titanium case and soft rubber strap yield a barely‑there feel on the wrist despite the substantial case size. 

• Shock‑Absorbing Coating: The high‑pressure rubber‑coated bezel also serves as a first line of defense against impacts.
