Description
Crafted for polo champion Pablo Mac Donough, this Richard Mille RM53-01 showcases an openworked dial within a striking 50mm x 40mm carbon case that exemplifies the brand’s commitment to extreme sport timepieces. The RM53 reference represents Richard Mille’s dedication to polo-specific horology, featuring a revolutionary suspension system designed to protect the tourbillon movement from the violent shocks inherent in high-goal polo. The carbon construction paired with the skeletonized dial creates a dramatic visual contrast while maintaining the ultra-lightweight profile essential for athletic performance. This particular example arrives with original box and papers, representing one of the most technically ambitious pieces in the contemporary Richard Mille catalog.
