As a renowned Italian soccer player and coach of the Italian National team, he became one of Richard Mille’s ambassadors in 2013 and hence the current RM11-01 is made for his legacy.
Reflecting the brand’s core philosophy that concepts are only worth developing if they lead to the application of new practical developments in watchmaking, the colorful flyback chronograph has a primary function to assist the timekeeping of a soccer match. With the central minutes counter, it is one of the world’s first chronographs to display match time based on two 45-minute halves and up to 15 minutes of stoppage time. Throughout a soccer match, extra time and stoppage time are all nerve-wracking periods for a manager and strategies in this short period of time can lead to either victory or defeat.
Encased in full titanium, it is also an annual calendar which only needs to adjust the date once a year in February. In excellent condition, the RM11-01 Roberto Mancini is the go-to watch for a soccer fan, an opportunity not-to-be-missed.
