Richard Mille RM 010 Automatic Titanium (2024)

The Richard Mille RM 010 Automatic in titanium is a defining expression of the brand’s modern design philosophy—lightweight, architectural, and engineered with the same technical rigor found in its most complex pieces. The tonneau-shaped case, measuring roughly 48 × 39.3 mm, is crafted from Grade 5 titanium, a material known for its remarkable combination of strength and low weight. Its curved profile, exposed spline screws, and multi-part construction showcase the sculptural geometry that has become synonymous with Richard Mille. Even with its bold dimensions, the watch wears comfortably thanks to the titanium’s ergonomic properties and the case’s fluid curvature.

The skeletonized dial reveals the RMAS7 automatic movement beneath, mounted on a titanium baseplate and bridges that contribute to the watch’s rigidity and stability. Every visible component is carefully finished, from polished bevels to micro-blasted textures, creating depth and visual clarity. A discreet date display sits between 7 and 8 o’clock, integrated organically into the openworked layout. The brand’s emphasis on transparency and technical expression is evident throughout the dial, which allows the mechanical aesthetic to take center stage without compromising readability.

Inside, the RMAS7 movement features Richard Mille’s hallmark variable-geometry rotor, an innovation allowing the winding system to adjust according to the wearer’s activity level. This engineering approach mirrors principles found in motorsport and aerospace—optimizing performance while reducing unnecessary strain. For collectors, the RM 010 in titanium represents a foundational model within the brand’s evolution: a watch that blends high-performance materials, advanced movement design, and unmistakable Richard Mille aesthetics into one cohesive, highly wearable piece.
