Description
It’s Time, it’s Chrono, it’s only RIM.
The most striking thing about RIM is the design, which takes inspiration from the world of motor racing, where everything is honed down to the smallest detail, and every last component is designed for high-level performance.
But the true product concept, to which the name refers, is RIM’s dual analogue and chronograph watch function.
The ‘Reverse’ system allows the case to be inverted fully in both directions. A quick-release catch releases the crown from its protection by rotating the crown protector. Two special arms allow the case to rotate freely, and a clearly recognisable click tells you when the case is in the correct position to be locked back into place. A simple manoeuvre that transforms RIM into an elegant and sporty chronograph watch.
Materials
Innovation never stops.
The design may be the main stand-out feature, but the materials the watch is made from come a close second.
The hypoallergenic 316L surgical steel case features an alternating glossy and brushed metal effect. The K1 mineral glass is scratch-resistant and has an anti-glare treatment, and the graphic elements are made of anodised aluminium.
The strap is made of two-tone FKM and, like the dial, has been designed with scrupulous attention to detail. The inside of the short side contains the Mazzucato logo, the name of the collection and the origin of the design, while the inside of the long side displays the technical specifications, the reference number (laser inscribed) and the movement’s beat rate. The double Z, the brand’s hallmark, can also be made out, and is also found on the top side.
