Pharrell Williams wears the Richard Mille ‘RM 52-05 Tourbillon Pharrell Williams’, limited edition of 30

The design is driven by Williams’ imagined depiction of space and Earth, reflected on the helmet visor of an astronaut on Mars, at the edge of the Valles Marineris. The dial form is created in a stylised-spacesuit structure, spray-painted white using an airbrushing technique developed for Richard Mille by French street artist Kongo, and it rests on a Grade 5 titanium structure, which connects the dial to the movement. The curved-dial landscapes are created using the champlevé enamel technique, while the landscape is hand-engraved in red gold at the Pierre-alain Lozeron engraving workshop in La Chaux-de-fonds. At either side of the helmet, two white gold elements, with a black sapphire and two diamonds, represent floodlights and cameras worn by space explorers. The case is created in Carbon TPT and micro-blasted cermet (a high-performance composite of ceramic and metal). The movement is the new Calibre RM 52-05 manualwinding tourbillon. The super-flexible hypoallergenic rubber strap is designed for ultimate air flow and 20kg mechanical resistance.
