During the star-studded Las Vegas Grand Prix, Travis Scott delivered a definitive luxury statement by wearing the Richard Mille RM 27-04 Tourbillon Rafael Nadal, a timepiece so rare it’s limited to just 50 pieces worldwide. The estimated $2 million USD watch cemented the rapper’s presence as the ultimate flex at the high-octane F1 event.

This specific RM 27-04 model, engineered in lightweight Tita-Carbon, achieves extraordinary resistance: at just 30 grams including the strap, its suspended tourbillon calibre can resist accelerations of more than 12,000g’s, a record for the brand. This feat is accomplished by an unprecedented construction inspired by a tennis racket’s strings. The movement is entirely supported by a micro-blasted mesh comprised of a single, braided steel cable just 0.27mm in diameter. The cable passes 38 times through the grade 5 titanium bezel, holding the movement in place by gold tensioners.

Scott’s choice to wear this technical marvel—a fusion of high-performance athletics and high-end horology—underscored the cultural convergence taking place at the Grand Prix, cementing the watch as the ultimate status symbol of extreme engineering and rarity. take a closer look at the watch above.
