The Story Behind the RM 017 and Richard Mille
Launched in 2011, the RM 017 was Richard Mille’s first rectangular tourbillon, breaking from the brand’s iconic tonneau shape. Richard Mille, a French visionary who founded his brand in 2001, aimed to shatter watchmaking norms. With roots at Audemars Piguet and Vacheron Constantin, Mille’s innovative spirit birthed this game-changer, blending style and precision.
Historical Facts That Spark Excitement
Only 50 RM 017 watches were made—talk about rare! This limited run, paired with its ultra-thin tourbillon movement, makes it a collector’s dream. Fun fact: each case required 202 machining operations before production. It’s no wonder Dubai collectors chase this mechanical sculpture!
Production Details: Pure Genius
The RM 017’s caliber RM017 is a manual-winding tourbillon, just 4.65mm thick, with a 70-hour power reserve. Crafted from grade 2 titanium with black PVD coating, it ensures flawless gear function. The function indicator (Winding, Neutral, Handsetting) mimics a car’s gearbox, reducing crown stress.
