Richard Mille released the RM011 Felipe Massa in 2007, discontinuing it in 2016. The watch has become a defining piece in the brand's collection and is highly regarded as their most successful chronograph. Named after the renowned Formula One driver, the RM011 boasts a fly-back chronograph and an annual date calendar, with the fly-back mechanism allowing the chronograph to reset without stopping. The watch also has a countdown function, making it a reliable tool in the F1 environment. The annual date calendar is displayed through oversized twin apertures located at 12 o'clock. RM011 adheres to the "machine on the wrist" concept, featuring non-slip ribbed and aerodynamic pushers, and a crown that resembles a smooth tyre. The titanium version is exceptionally lightweight, and combined with its curved back, provides unparalleled comfort. This model is an excellent opportunity to own a timepiece that embodies the purest essence of Richard Mille, one of the most significant and innovative independent watchmakers of the 21st century.
