Richard Mille has dropped another racy watch in honor of the 12th edition of the Le Mans Classic. The Swiss watchmaker has been a principal partner of the legendary, 24-hour race since 2002. It has also developed commemorative timepieces for every edition of the Le Mans Classic since 2008, resulting in 10 special editions in total. The latest limited edition is a riff on the RM 30-01 that showcases a green and white livery inspired by the Le Mans Classic corporate colors. Other race-inspired touches include a checkered flag on the dial, the race logo on the sapphire crystal caseback, and a racing-vented rubber strap. Limited to 150 examples, the watch costs CHF 220,000, or approximately $273,000.
