Hands-on: The Thinnest Watch in the World

Ойын-сауық

Wei got his hands on the USD 1.88 million, 150-piece limited edition Richard Mille UP-01 Ferrari. Wei shares how the brand had to rethink mechanical watchmaking techniques and components, in order to break the record for world's thinnest watch.
This ultra-thin timepiece might be 1.75mm thin, but it can withstand accelerations of over 5,000 g’s and packs 45 hours of power reserve.
It features a baseplate and bridges crafted of grade 5 titanium, a biocompatible, rigid and corrosion-resistant alloy, and is the result of numerous prototypes and more than 6,000 hours of development and laboratory testing.

    I appreciate the technical effort but this is the ugliest watch I have seen in my entire life! I really like both the Bulgari Octo Finissimo Ultra and the Piaget Altiplano Ultimate! 😍

    Hi Wei, I love your content, but you got to up your game on video/audio quality. The sound is muffled, video is jittery. And it`s 2022, 4k can be had on any flagship phone. I am sure your viewership will do a lot better if you solve these issue. Keep up the good work you already have here with the content, just clear those basic technical hurdles. From a fellow Singaporean.

That all said: Please get a manicure. Or better yet, just put the watch on a tray with a tripod mounted camera. It's constantly popping in and out of focus, and the bad nail is just unseemly on a 27" screen. Not something I enjoy looking at.
