Another of Richard Mille's (previously mentioned) SIHH 2012 releases, this is their split-second chronograph with a tourbillon, the RM056 Filippe Massa. It uses one of their original movements now named the RMCC1. It's cased in a multi-part case, of the usual RM shape, cut entirely from sapphire. It's a technical tour-de-force, the curves and inside angles are fiendishly difficult to cut from the crystals, but the final result in no way looks like a piece with an MSRP of $1.65 milllion. On the other hand, they're only making 5 and they're all sold already, so...

A closeup of the massively complex RMCC1 movement. It has a split-second chronograph, a tourbillon, both torque and power-reseve indicators as well as RM's unusual push-button mode control.
