As a result of the development of technology, smart devices started to gain importance day by day. Smart watches, one of the most popular products of recent times, have become indispensable as they make the work of many people easier. A watch that was introduced and offered for sale in the past days seems to make a name for itself for a long time, both with its design and price.
A watch went on sale with the partnership of Richard Mille, one of the first names that come to mind when it comes to watches, and Ferrari, one of the best automobile manufacturers in the world. However, there is an important feature that distinguishes this watch from regular watches, even smart watches. This watch has the distinction of being the thinnest watch in the world and its price is astonishing.
The world’s thinnest watch is named after a car
Produced by the Richard Mille brand and winning the title of being the thinnest watch in the world, the watch is exactly 1.75 mm thick. The Bulgari Octo Finissimo Ultra, the watch that broke this record, is only 1.88 mm thick. Richard Mille produced the watch called RM UP-01 Ferrari, just like its namesake car, from very solid materials and with an impressive movement worthy of the watchmaker’s name.
The gear mechanism inside the watch is 1.18 mm thick. The products used in the production of the watch are not the materials used in the production of a normal daily watch. Seeing this watch as a work of art, Richard Mille and Ferrari produced the watch in 51 mm body size. The watch, which has an interesting design as it is thin, has a manual mechanism and the user has to rewind it when stopped with the help of a special tool. The body, in which many fine gears come together, is made of a metal material with high strength.
It seems like it will break a record with its record-breaking watch price. As it has been announced, you can buy a Ferrari sports car instead of buying this watch, which has a price tag of 1.8 million dollars. In fact, you can even buy 2 of the cars of some car brands. Only 150 of the limited edition watch were produced.
