Richard Mille Tourbillon RM 12-01 Carbon Fiber Case – KV Factory Super Clone 1:1 Replica

Frequently Asked Questions — Richard Mille RM 12-01 Tourbillon Super Clone

Is the tourbillon on the KV Factory RM 12-01 replica a real tourbillon or a fake one?

Yes — this is a real tourbillon, not a decorative dummy.
Some RM reps with tourbillon movement are sold up to $2,000
, and the KV RM 12-01 sits in that tier for a reason. You can actually see the cage spinning at 6 o’clock. No cap, it hits different compared to those cheap “tourbillon-style” fakes floating around.

How accurate is the NTPT carbon fiber case on this Richard Mille RM 12-01 replica?

On the case surface at 6 o’clock and 12 o’clock, there are unique textures like genuine RM that is also made with forged carbon.
KV uses imported high-density NTPT carbon fiber on the case and crown — IMO it’s the closest carbon pattern texture you’ll find in any rep RM right now.

Is the KV Factory RM 12-01 Tourbillon water resistant?

Each unit is individually vacuum tested to 3ATM for daily splash resistance. But honestly?
For these Richard Mille replicas from KV, I do not suggest you wear them when swimming or diving.
Keep it dry — treat it like gen owners treat theirs tbh.

What’s the rubber strap made of on this RM 12-01 super clone?

It’s Malaysian-imported rubber paired with sapphire crystal glass.
Top quality Malaysian rubber made, could also be used on genuine
RM models — so yeah, the strap quality is legit. Comfortable on wrist and doesn’t feel cheap at all.

How much does the gen Richard Mille RM 12-01 Tourbillon cost vs this replica?

Price for each is $828,000 USD
on the gen, and
only released in sets of 18 for each of the four styles.
This KV Factory 1:1 super clone gives you the same architectural skeleton look and a working tourbillon at a fraction of that. Low-key the best entry into RM collecting without going bankrupt.
