SIGNED RICHARD MILLE, REF. RM010 AG TI, CASE NO. 741, CIRCA 2007

Of extreme popularity, the RM010 has become throughout the years a highly coveted timepiece by Richard Mille enthusiasts. Impressive and highly attractive, Richard Mille's RM10 is fitted with the automatic manufacture movement RM-AS7, produced and assembled at the renowned AP Renaud & Papi factory in Le Locle. It features a so-called rotor with variable geometry with the option of adapting the winding to the wearers activity level, such as sports or leisure. By adjusting the six-positional setting of the ribs placement, the rotors inertia is modified, either speeding up the winding process in the case of minimal arm and hand movements, or slowing it down when high activity sports are pursued.

Richard Mille
A veteran in the watch industry, Richard Mille began his career in 1974 as a commercial director for one of the world's largest watch companies where he remained for 20 years. In 2000 he started developing his own timepieces, inspired by the perfection found in the automobile and aviation industries. His line of watches includes a specially developed tourbillon escapement, the innovative technical choices applied to the design of this sophisticated watch required thousands of hours to develop. In August 2001 the first watch, the Tourbillon RM 001, was launched followed by the Tourbillon RM 002 the same year, a further improvement of its predecessor featuring a titanium plate and function indicator. In 2002, Mille introduced the Tourbillon RM 003 with dual-time indicator.
