RM 36-01 Tourbillon G-Sensor Sebastien Loeb

The RM 36-01 Tourbillon G-Sensor Sebastien Loeb is an advancement of the mechanical G-force sensor watches that are already offered in the Richard Mille collection. Moreover, it is the result of the collaboration with Sébastien Loeb. Hours, minutes, a rotating g-sensor, a power reserve indicator, and a function selector are all features of the manual winding tourbillon movement.
