Richard Mille just signed a partnership agreement with professional tennis player Rafael Nadal. To commemorate their relationship, Rafal Nadal worked closely with Richard Mille to develop a tourbillon watch that might be light enough for him to put on while playing tennis. The end result is really a new 50 piece special edition RM027 replica D&G DW0037, which weighs less 19 grams, including the strap. The most interesting thing about this partnership, aside from its lightness, is that Rafael Nadal will wear his $525,000 Richard Mille tourbillon during his matches.Technical Specifications PDFRetail $525,000Source: Richard Mille
