Wristwatch by [[Richard Mille]]

This is the first time in the watch area that the innovative material nano [[carbon]] fiber is used the [[plate]] of the [[watch movement]] is made ​​from this material. Hereby, and also because of the extensive [[skeletonizing]], the watch became light as a feather. The [[nanofiber]]s are pressed under the high pressure of 7,500 N/cm<sup>2</sup> and a temperature of 2,000˚C.

The experimental watch was limited to 20 pieces. It is one of the early models of the brand, with which it reached its unrivaled glory among watch connoisseurs and horological enthusiasts. Later other models with a plate made of nano-carbon fiber followed.

By the way, the Formula 1 driver Felipe Massa, to whom Richard Mille dedicated a number of special editions of later models, wore a RM 006 on the wrist during the races of the [[2004]] racing season.
