Richard Mille presents the new RM 032 Automatic Flyback Chronograph Ultimate Edition, a timepiece for conquering the deepest depths of the ocean. As the latest and final model of the RM 032 collection, this Ultimate Edition combines technical performance with Richard Mille’s signature style and robustness.

Richard Mille has been thrilled to explore the underwater world with the RM 032 series since the release of the first model of the collection in 2011. This model also appears on the wrist of Richard Mille partner and free diver Arnaud Jerald, holder of 8 world records, accompanying him on his dives.

Security and readability are at the forefront of the RM 032 Ultimate Edition, crafted specifically for underwater specialists to ensure maximum resilience. The watch provides hours, minutes, seconds, 12-hour totaliser and flyback chronograph functions, combined with an annual calendar sporting an oversize date at 12 o’clock and a month indicator between 4 and 5 o’clock. The digits for the date indicator are composed of two DLC titanium discs, with the numbers cut out in silhouette like inverse stencils, combining great visual clarity with style. A running indicator at 3 o’clock makes it possible to check the correct functioning of the movement under stressful conditions. The running indicator features a Super-LumiNova® disc, rotating at 2 rpm, positioned beneath black segments outlined on the dial, ensuring easy readability, day or night.

The calibre RMAC2 relies on PVD-treated grade 5 titanium baseplate and bridges and is powered by a free-sprung balance. The energy imparted by the typical variable geometry rotor is stored in two barrels, providing a 50-hour power reserve. The movement is protected by a substantial case measuring 50.00 x 17.80 mm with a water resistance of 300 metres topped with a unidirectional bezel. This Ultimate Edition’s unique structure balances power and comfort, using a lightweight yet incredibly robust materials such as grade 5 titanium for the case structure and Carbon TPT® inserts. The fixed bezel is made from satin-finished grade 5 titanium with polished bevels. The rotating bezel, crafted from microblasted DLC grade 5 titanium, perfectly complements the half bezels made of Carbon TPT®, secured with eight-point-star-shaped screws.

Water pressure on the case and crown can be powerful enough to unintentionally operate one of the pushers. In order to avoid any external pressure effect or accidental manipulation, Richard Mille has developed and patented a locking crown that immobilizes the watch functions, also resulting in perfect water resistance. The crown and pushers of the RM 032 can be locked by simply rotating its ring (green index if unlocked, red index when locked). The water resistance is further enhanced thanks to maximum seal pressure.

The RM 032 Automatic Flyback Chronograph Ultimate Edition remains a masterpiece of function in complex environments, while its ergonomic design ensures that it rests comfortably on the wrist. Available as a limited edition of 80 pieces, the final interpretation of the RM 032 exemplifies both aesthetic appeal and craftsmanship, creating a timepiece capable of withstanding the ocean’s depths while maintaining the elegance expected of fine watches.
