The Richard Mille RM055 All Grey – Shades of grey perfection
Hello everyone, There is a Richard Mille that, among my all-time favorite models from the brand (and probably all brands considered), provides nearly the same rush of appeal (and envy) each time I see it (even on pictures). It’s indeed the Richard Mille RM055 Bubba Watson “All Grey” limited edition. Strangely, it isn’t the most complicated as it is a time-only reference, but as with all RMs (even the ones I don’t like), the engineering and philosophy behind their conception is so unique and powerful for a curiosity-driven guy (as with someone just interested in discovering any kind of innovations in general) that I’m always excited when I can hold…

The Richard Mille RM39-01 Aviation E6-B – A Fighter cockpit on the wrist
Hello everyone, I wished to have a view on another Richard Mille. This time, it is a king-size model that reflects quite well the “machine” moto.

The Richard Mille RM67-01 Extra Flat in rose gold – The contemporary “dressy”?
Hi everyone, I was able to try on, a couple of times, the Richard Mille RM67-01 Extra Flat which was presented in 2015. At the time, it was quite a new offer from the brand, due to its thinner case. In fact, these RMs are maybe one of the most beautiful modern watches I know. It may have looked as a mere detail back then but compared to the previous models the brand launched, it represented quite a new line-up. Visible below, you may know the square models, the RM17 (Tourbillon) and RM16, that were already thinner (resp. 8.7 and 8.25mm) and considered to be pieces you would choose to…
