Catalogue Essay

Deemed one of the most advanced and elegant luxury wristwatches, the Richard Mille RM07 debuted in 2005 as the brand's first feminine model. With its elongated, sensually curved shape in a smaller dimension, the RM07 combines mechanical hyper-technology with beauty. The lineage has flourished into an array of precious metal and diamond-set styles. Richard Mille created three RM07s in the summer of 2023, which took the collecting community by storm. The three models featured a hand-crafted guilloché dial made in three pastel colors—described as “blush pink,” “lavender” and “powder blue” that perfectly encapsulated the spirit of summer in its design and colour. The models were most notably inspired by the Memphis Milano movement - an Italian design and architecture group founded by Ettore Sottsass during the 1970s. The Memphis Group's work was characterized by its use of bright colour, as well as asymmetrical and abstract shapes. These watches perfectly merge the 1980s artistic spirit with technology and innovation - cornerstones of Richard Mille's line up of timepieces.

The three models feature a biocompatible ceramic case made of Tetragonal Zirconia Polycrystal (TZP). This material is known for not only its lightness and strength but also its color retention. Other properties include corrosion resistance and toughness superior to sapphire. A special finishing process also gives a matte finish to the case. Preserved in virtually brand new condition, the present version is the blush pink model, which also features diamonds on the dial, as well as ceramic asymmetrical shapes with a guilloché finish.

Richard Mille

Swiss | 1999

Established in 1999, Richard Mille's ultra-modern timepieces combine cutting-edge materials from high performance worlds such as Formula 1 racecars with high-end traditional watchmaking. The brand's revolutionary designs, technical breakthroughs and exceptional hand-finishing excite even the most discriminating collectors, and have positioned Richard Mille alongside the top makers of the modern luxury watch world.



Innovative watches, such as the RM 027 Tourbillon, which was the world’s lightest mechanical watch when introduced in 2011, have helped the brand invert the concept of the luxury watch. Key models include the RM 009 Tourbillon cased in Aluminum Silicon Carbide (AlSiC), the RM 027-02 Tourbillon made for tennis star Rafael Nadal with a case made from quartz and carbon fiber and the RM 008 split seconds chronograph.
