RM 011 Felipe Massa Flyback Chronograph

A racing car for the wrist, built from aerospace composites.

Ref. RM 011 · Released 2007 · Switzerland

The RM 011 is the watch that made Richard Mille a household name among collectors: a skeletonised flyback chronograph with annual calendar in a curved tonneau case.

Every element is engineered for shock resistance, from the grade-5 titanium baseplate to the variable-geometry rotor that adapts winding to the wearer's activity.
