Richard Mille‘s journey begins when watches go beyond mere timekeeping. The RM 74-01 and RM 74-02 automatic tourbillons demonstrate the independent watchmaker’s ambitious and audacious stance once more. The tonneau cases’ bold lines and the preening mechanical movements within leave no doubt about their pedigree.
To begin with, the RM 74-01 measures 52.63 x 34.40 x 13.05mm, and that is only the beginning of what makes it unmistakable. The case and dial are made of grey cermet, which is a trade name for a metal and ceramic combination. Cermet is a lot of fun for writers like us because autocorrect comes up with all kinds of permutations for it, but we digress. Grey cermet, in particular for the RM 74-01, refers to a unique material experiment in titanium and ceramic, which is unique in the wide and crazy world of watchmaking to Richard Mille. That’s the kind of watchmaker Richard Mille is, and we haven’t even gotten into the extravagant watchmaking that is the CRMT 6 calibre.
