Richard Mille RM 55-01 Manual Winding

At Richard Mille, there are certain models that find their sweet spot in extreme understatement, focalising all the technicity of contemporary haute horlogerie into an architecture stripped down to absolute mechanical necessity. The new RM 55-01 Manual Winding fully ascribes to this approach, projecting a resolutely airy structure where each component is perfectly situated according to its function. ‘Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.’ The RM 55-01 Manual Winding fully illustrates this dictum from pilot and author Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.
