I hear he wants to trade it straight up for an F1 team. Seems about right given the outsized prices of RM watches.
On a serious note, damn cool clock. |

Wonder who they hired to make the hardware. Looks like a great PR piece for their sponsored events.

6216 RM movements are bound together to give enough gear train traction to move the giant minutes hand.
 Not unlike the Li cells in a Tesla battery pack. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Honestly I don't know if I would like or hate this look if I saw it in person, but that someone has finally created something very shocking special in this kind of clocks, that's for sure.

I always find it difficult to read the time on RM. This one although bigger, still has the same issue (for me)

Nowadays if you create the design / CAD / etc, it's easy to outsource the manufacturing of parts for large clocks like the RM. You could also 3d print :)
