Richard Mille RM 50-03 It’s no secret that we love watches. The high-end watches we admire and love require not only precision engineering and incredible craftsmanship, but also their fashionable side, not to mention the lifestyle they embody. At 8JS we draw inspiration from the world of motorsport, often in an environment where the noise is deafening and the fumes of burning rubber and petrol slowly make their way into our systems. I suppose the same could be said about Richard Mille and his first collaboration with McLaren.

McLaren Formula 1 Team means a lot to us and especially to our founder Prosts (need I elaborate?). In recent years, however, the team has not performed at the level it was once familiar with, where its cars and drivers dominated the field in the late 1980s and early 1990s. As spectators, we're happy to say that McLaren is heading in the right direction, and fast. In just a few years, the team has gone from a laggard to a strong position closer to leaders like Mercedes and Red Bull.

Time flies and as the last year showed us, it will continue to do so. In our world of racing, timing is everything. Whether it's recording laps, pit stops, measuring aerodynamics, or even penalties, the race is all about time. No one is a better time machine for high-octane sports than Richard Mille.

Richard Mille is a brand that polarizes watch enthusiasts and is undoubtedly revered by the secondary market for truly building racing machines for the wrist. In 2017, the brand released a new watch to commemorate ten years of cooperation with McLaren. This is the RM 50-03, billed as the world’s lightest split-seconds tourbillon chronograph, weighing in at just 38 grams (strap included). The reason why this watch is so light is due to the introduction of graphene in the carbon TPT case. The RM 50-03 marks the first application in watchmaking of a nanomaterial that is six times lighter and 200 times stronger than steel.
