The present reference RM023 was originally based on the famous reference RM010. This semi-skeletonized timepiece encased in white gold and diamonds appeals to both men and women, and can be worn in a number of different settings. The asymmetric dial configuration features Roman numerals applied to the sapphire crystal, which took rigorous research and development to achieve what we see today.


The impressive automatic caliber RMA02 is comprised of titanium with black PVD coating, and features a variable geometry rotor, which enhances the winding of the mainspring. By calculating the user’s actions, it can prevent overwinding of the watch.


This sophisticated watch is wonderful work of art, both inside and out, making this arguably the most outstanding diamond-set wristwatch Richard Mille has yet to produce.
