The main feature of the present watch is its rotor with variable geometry and unidirectional, anti-clockwise winding direction. This exclusive Richard Mille design allows the rewinding of the mainspring to be adapted most effectively to the user's activity level whether it be sporting or non-sporting environments. By adjusting the setting of the rib's placement, the rotor's inertia is modified to either speed up the winding process in the case of leisurely arm movements, or slow it down when sporting activities are pursued. As a result, this invention allows the movement's winding mechanism to be personalised and optimised to the owner's lifestyle.
