Richard Mille Super Clone Watches 1:1 RM 68 -01 Tourbillon Cyril Kongo White Strap

Original price was: $1,999.00.Current price is: $1,399.00.

JB Factory Edition — White Fluoroelastomer Rubber Strap

JB Factory’s iteration of the RM 68-01 Cyril Kongo stands out for its structural ambition, utilizing a true asymmetric NTPT carbon case that tapers in both thickness and height. It represents a significant technical step up from lower-tier factories that rely on standard mechanical movements hidden beneath decorative plates, offering an authentic case geometry critical to this specific reference.

Powered by a custom real tourbillon caliber, the mechanism features a fully operational tourbillon cage at the 6 o’clock position. While the gear train and bridge architecture have been simplified compared to the genuine article, the kinetic presence of the rotating escapement remains historically accurate to the Richard Mille platform.

The case replicates the unique geometry of the genuine, decreasing in thickness from 9 to 3 o’clock. The graffiti-style dial and movement bridges utilize a multi-layer manual micro-spray technique to emulate Cyril Kongo’s artwork, though it presents a more standard baked paint texture under macro inspection compared to the genuine’s oily, jade-like finish.

  • Movement: Custom Real Tourbillon Caliber — Approximately 36 hours
  • Case Material: Asymmetric NTPT Carbon Fiber, [unconfirmed] lug-to-lug, 100g
  • Bezel: NTPT Carbon Fiber, layered texture aligns with mid-case
  • Crystal: Sapphire with anti-reflective coating
  • Bracelet: White fluoroelastomer rubber with folding clasp
  • Water Resistance: Stated 30m — professional pressure test recommended before swimming. Do not operate chronograph pushers or the crown while the watch is submerged.

This reference caters to collectors seeking the kinetic appeal of a functioning tourbillon wrapped in avant-garde RM geometry. It demands a wearer comfortable with high-visibility, contemporary horological art.

Description

JB Factory Richard Mille RM 68-01 Tourbillon Cyril Kongo

A structurally ambitious replica utilizing a true asymmetric NTPT carbon case and functioning tourbillon, though limited by the inherent difficulties of replicating hand-sprayed micro-art.

Powered by Custom Real Tourbillon Caliber

The JB Factory RM 68-01 discards the faux-plate standard mechanical movements found in lower-tier replicas in favor of a custom-developed caliber featuring a genuine, functioning tourbillon at 6 o’clock. While the broader architecture captures the visual essence of the original, the gear train arrangement and bridge skeletonization curves are notably simplified compared to the multi-layered 3D depth of the genuine caliber. All mechanisms undergo our strict QC standards to ensure tourbillon stability and power delivery before dispatch.

⏱ Accuracy Profile:

±10–15 seconds per day. Standard for clone tourbillon movements, prioritizing the kinetic rotation of the escapement over chronometer-level precision.

  • ✅ Power Reserve: Approximately 36 hours
  • ✅ Complications: Functioning 6 o’clock Tourbillon
  • ✅ Winding Direction: Manual wind

Technical Specifications

THE BUILDAsymmetric NTPT Carbon Fiber

Weighing exactly 100g and measuring 14.5mm thick. The case correctly tapers, with thickness decreasing from 9 to 3 o’clock, and height decreasing from 12 to 6 o’clock.

THE DIALMulti-Layer Micro-Spray Graffiti

Utilizes a multi-layer manual micro-spray process with color-fixing. Achieves high saturation but lacks the oily, jade-like three-dimensional depth of Cyril Kongo’s original hand-painted pigments.

THE BEZELNTPT Carbon Fiber

Features the distinctive layered carbon textures aligned seamlessly with the asymmetric mid-case, secured by signature spline screws.

THE BRACELETWhite Fluoroelastomer Rubber

Secured via a folding clasp. While functional, the rubber compound is stiffer and more prone to dirt accumulation and yellowing than the genuine lightweight canvas or textured rubber equivalents.

Why JB Factory for This Reference?

Many collectors ask: ‘Why not standard market versions?’

Standard factories rely on basic automatic movements covered by decorative plates and symmetric cases. JB Factory invests in a custom real tourbillon movement and specifically engineers the highly unusual asymmetric NTPT carbon case, making it the only viable option for those who value structural accuracy.

Full Disclosure: The primary flaw lies in the graffiti art and movement details. Under a loupe, the micro-spray colors present a standard baked paint texture rather than the nuanced, oily depth of the genuine. Additionally, the movement’s shock absorbers and gear train are noticeably simplified, presenting an easy tell for horological experts.

Collector Q&A

Q: Does the tourbillon at 6 o’clock actually function on this JB Factory model?

A: Yes. Unlike lower-tier replicas that use a standard balance wheel hidden under a faux bridge, the JB Factory RM 68-01 features a custom caliber with a fully operational tourbillon rotating at the 6 o’clock position.

Q: How accurate is the asymmetric case shape compared to the genuine RM 68-01?

A: The JB Factory correctly replicates the unique asymmetric geometry of the genuine NTPT carbon case. It visibly tapers, decreasing in thickness from 9 o’clock to 3 o’clock, and lowering in height from 12 o’clock to 6 o’clock.

Q: How does the white rubber strap hold up over time?

A: The provided white fluoroelastomer rubber strap is functional but falls short of the genuine’s specialized materials. It is stiffer and more susceptible to dirt accumulation and yellowing over time compared to the original lightweight canvas or high-end textured rubber.

Q: How close is the graffiti artwork to Cyril Kongo’s original hand-painted dial?

A: This is the primary tell on the replica. While JB uses a multi-layer micro-spray technique to mimic the splashed paint effect, it lacks the 3D, jade-like oily depth of the genuine. Under a loupe, the replica’s colors resemble standard baked paint, and the movement bridge skeletonization is noticeably simplified.
