Product Overview
With the introduction of the RM 004 in 2004, after more than five years of development to perfect it, Richard Mille launched a new generation of split-seconds chronograph watches. It features a carbon nanofibre tonneau shaped case that is 42 x 50mm in surface with a sapphire crystal on the back. The dial is skeletonized with white Arabic numerals, two small sub-dials, and an inner black tachymeter bezel. It features a function indicator which makes it possible to identify the winding, neutral and hand-setting positions as the crown is pulled out. Powered by the Calibre RM004-V3 manual winding movement and 70hrs power reserve, it is inlaid in a black rubber strap and torque limiting crown.
At its core the Richard Mille RM 004 is a carbon nanofibre tonneau-shaped case, measuring 42 x 50mm, which offers both durability and a lightweight feel on the wrist. The sapphire crystal case back provides a window into the intricate inner workings of the timepiece, showcasing the Calibre RM004-V3 manual winding movement.
The dial of the RM 004 is skeletonized, revealing the intricate mechanical components beneath. White Arabic numerals stand out against the backdrop, providing clarity and legibility. Two small sub-dials offer additional functionality, while an inner black tachymeter bezel adds a sporty touch to the design.
One of the standout features of the RM 004 is its function indicator, which allows wearers to identify the winding, neutral, and hand-setting positions as the crown is pulled out. This innovative feature enhances the user experience and adds a layer of practicality to the timepiece.
