Richard Mille RM 07-04 Automatic Sport, 36 grams of femininity

Their names are Aurora Straus, Margot Laffite, Nelly Korda, Nafi Thiam, Yuliya Levchenko and Ester Ledecká.

They are two pilots, the world No. 2 in golf, two athletics champions and a triple gold medalist at the Winter Olympics… So many interpretations, different faces, of today's women.

These six high-level sportswomen are also Richard Mille's partners in displaying the six variations of its first women's sports watch, the RM 07-04 Automatic Sport.

Ultra-light, this piece of extreme watchmaking offered at just under 200,000 euros each weighs only 36 grams, Velcro strap included.

It is available in black for the Carbon TPT model, in cream white, mauve, salmon, green or dark blue for the five Quartz TPT pieces.

All feature a new in-house automatic movement that is both compact and skeletonised.

“We didn't impose a refined design on ourselves and opted for an aerial movement exposing its complexity at first glance,” explains Cécile Guenat, director of creation and development for Richard Mille.

Proposing a female skeleton sports watch is a bet that few people had dared to take up.

This collection is a guarantee of aesthetics as well as technique.

Caliber CRMA8 is therefore a new in-house automatic movement with hours, minutes and function selector.

To ensure overall rigidity, the mainplate and bridges are in grade 5 titanium, completed with a black PVD treatment.

This movement has undergone a battery of intense tests validating its resistance to accelerations of 5000 g.

The function selector eliminates any stress on the winding stem.

Associated with a Quartz TPT pusher located at 4 o'clock, it allows a simple pressure to choose, as on a car gearbox, between neutral position (N), winding (W) or time setting (H). ).

The hand at 5 o'clock indicates the chosen function on a traversing flange in grade 5 titanium.
