Catalogue Essay
Richard Mille believes that timepieces should be both sophisticated, practical and comfortable on the wrist.
Introduced in 2002, RM003 is slightly larger than its predecessor RM002. Building upon the consequent success of RM002, the present RM003 also features a movement base plate made with carbon nanofibre that optimizes the performance of the watch and enhance its precision and reliability.
The dial features a transparent sapphire crystal disc that indicates a dual time zone with hours, which come into view when suspended above the white field at 3 o'clock. The dual time complicated is simple to adjust via a single button in the band.
The present watch rendered in white gold showcases the technological complexities that Richard Mille is best known for. Offered with original warranty and fitted presentation box, the present watch features many of the attributes that make Richard Mille so popular today.
