Richard Mille has introduced the RM 16-02 Automatic Extraflat, a new timepiece that showcases cutting-edge watchmaking in a sleek, modern design.
The RM 16-02 stands out with its rectangular shape, inspired by brutalist architecture. Its skeletonized CRMA9 movement, crafted from high-grade titanium, is visible through the dial, offering a glimpse into its advanced engineering. The movement is designed for precision, featuring a free-sprung balance with variable inertia for improved accuracy and reliability.
Despite its technical complexity, the watch remains remarkably thin, with a movement measuring just 4.12 mm in thickness. A platinum rotor with a OneWay winding system enhances efficiency, while ceramic ball bearings ensure smooth operation. With a power reserve of around 50 hours, the RM 16-02 is both functional and visually striking.
Built for durability, the watch features a tripartite case secured with titanium screws and stainless steel washers. It is water-resistant up to 30 meters, making it as practical as it is luxurious. The dial, inspired by Ariadne’s thread, guides the eye through the intricate mechanics while maintaining a bold and modern look.
The RM 16-02 Automatic Extraflat is available exclusively at Richard Mille boutiques worldwide. Pricing details are available upon request.
