Catalogue Essay
Ever since the release of his first model in 2001 Richard Mille has been known for visionary and avant-garde designs with an aesthetic never seen before in the history of watchmaking. Since their beginning, Mille has pushed the limits of horology making some of the most technical watches of the 21st century. His cutting-edge designs are immediately recognizable, and are sophisticated, practical, and comfortable on the wrist. The movements are manufactured to be worn in extreme conditions using revolutionary materials.
The present RM 67-02 is in perfect tune with Mille’s philosophy pushed to the limits as this ultra light piece weighs a jaw dropping mere 32 grams (including the strap) thanks to the combination of TPT composite materials and grade 5 titanium of the case.
Richard Mille designed this model so that it can be adapted to various sporting disciplines. This is why several of the brand’s partners have had developed an RM 67-02 in the colours of their respective countries, so as to test the abilities of this automatic calibre in a range of settings.
The present RM67-02 was developed with Alexis Pinturault the French ski champion. With 34 World Cup victories, Pinturault is the most successful French skier in World Cup history. He represented France at five World Championships and two Winter Olympics, with four bronze medals in the giant slalom. He is the current World Cup champion after winning the 2020-21 season.
The bezel and caseback of the present example are in Quartz TPT and the bridges hand-painted in the colours of the French flag.
In superb, hardly worn condition the watch comes with its full set of accessories.
