The Face Of New Frontiers

These days, there is no shortage of tool watches – tough, water-resistant, and so on – for the modern-day adventurer. But, should you ever find yourself lost and thirsty in the wilderness, how many of them would be able to purify the murky water that you might find yourself scooping from a ditch? Enter the RM 25-01 Tourbillon Adventure Sylvester Stallone, the latest over-engineered brainchild of the ultra-high-end watch specialists at Richard Mille.

The brand’s first exploration-themed timepiece is, as its name suggests, designed in collaboration with larger-than-life action icon, director and – no kidding, he paints – artist, Sylvester Stallone. One of its many adventure-ready features is a small hermetic chamber that can hold up to five water-purification tablets – each of which can make a litre of any water potable within 30 to 120 minutes, depending on how filthy the liquid is. No wonder Stallone himself called it “the ultimate explorer’s watch”, in an Instagram post.

It is a rare display of solidarity of fierce rivals coming together to face the current global health crisis.
