One of the things for which you almost must be an industry insider to know is the tremendous amount of efforts and resources that go into developing a new type of bracelet for a watch. While this may seem like a relatively simple task, the bracelet not only needs to fit the watch and look good but also be very comfortable to wear, on a wide variety of different wrists. On top of that do bracelets have to be able to cope with quite some stress, even with normal day-to-day activities. This means that a lot of thought, engineering and prototyping goes into making such a bracelet a reality. This gives you some idea of what Richard Mille had to go through when creating their new bracelet for the RM 07-01, although their journey was even more challenging, as it is made from Carbon TPT.
