tend to agree with you on the RM038. I prefer the pure version. It is a watch that grew on me.
Thanks

A Winter Garden in Bloom! Richard Mille at SIHH2015
By: 219 : January 28th, 2015-14:29
It was, for the most part, a quiet year for Richard Mille at the Salon de Haute Horologerie (SIHH). It was also a year for complicated ladies watches. For once, there were no new cutting edge materials on offer, no new sports ambassadors, or no new case d...
RM019-02 Tourbillon Fleur
By: 219 : January 28th, 2015-14:32
The RM019-02 Fleur was the main watch and complication offered by Richard Mille at SIHH2015. Without doubt, although the case design is definitively Richard Mille and belongs in the twenty-first century, the mechanism and the representation of the complic...
RM051-02 Tourbillon Diamond Twister
By: 219 : January 28th, 2015-14:33
The second of the complex women’s watches offered this year was simply stunning! In line with some of the complicated women’s watches of the past from Richard: for example the RM019-01, this time, the lattice work dial is covered in a total of 270 diamond...
RM038-01 Bubba Watson
By: 219 : January 28th, 2015-14:36
A new version of Richard’s golf watch for the American golfer: Bubba Watson. I liked the RM038 for its bridge design and the ‘lightness’ in construction and finish. This time the g-force meter is added into the mix. The same bridge design is there but now...
Interesting evolution
By: colton_d : January 29th, 2015-05:00
Thank you for sharing the live pics, interesting to see the TZP in green and the alterations to the original RM-038 movement. I must confess to prefer the original RM038 and the purity of the white/grey case. Looks like this uses the larger RM case with a...
Very cool and would love to see Bubba test the watch -

while I am sure he wont scuff a shot, unless required, it would be interesting to actually measure the g-forces exhibited by the swing and impact. It would both serve as a lesson in forces on the escapement, but also the sensitivity of the g-force meter o...
RM061-01 Yohan Blake
By: 219 : January 28th, 2015-14:37
Another TZP ceramic bezel watch, this time in all black. Definitely playing to the market, where black watches are definitely ‘in’. Similar in style and tone to the limited edition all black RM055 which sold out in near record time recently, the RM061-01 ...
RM011 in titanium with a titanium bracelet.
By: 219 : January 28th, 2015-14:39
This has been a long time coming! But as always, Richard wanted it to be just right before launching it. Not one for doing anything by half, Richard tried a number of variations before settling on this. For anyone who can remember the collaborative projec...
This RM011 bracelet looks pretty futuristic IMO
By: AnthonyTsai : January 29th, 2015-10:27
Turns the RM011 into a futuristic machine. I like it and can't wait to try it on in the near future next time I got to a RM store. Cheers, Anthony
Be strong! And look to take it off. Despite being made of titanium
By: 219 : January 31st, 2015-06:43
its really made of emotion and the longer it spends on your wrist the more it pulls on those emotions, and the heavier it weighs on your mind! I did not expect to like it: I prefer straps, but this one was so very comfortable on the wrist. Looks so very c...
very cool bracelet!!
By: mjnoumoff : January 29th, 2015-11:04
thanks for your writeup. can the bracelet be mounted on another non-bracelet RM11? OR are the bracelet RM11 cases different from the non-bracelet RM 11 cases? (similar to the Patek 5726 strap v. bracelet case)
The RM011 and the bracelet are sold together. You cannot buy
By: 219 : January 31st, 2015-06:49
the bracelet separately. The reason is that Richard is concerned about aesthetics. The finish on the watch is designed to exactly match the finish on the bracelet and hence be a unified whole. Much like the design aesthetic for the Starck. Watch and brace...
The look of the bracelet certainly matches the case.
By: MichaelC : January 29th, 2015-16:13
This is obvious, of course, but it is hard to imagine it working otherwise. I have not had much exposure to RM in general, but find this bracelet piece quite compelling.
Richard Mille 'Open Link' gold bracelet for women
By: 219 : January 28th, 2015-14:40
This bracelet works with both the RM007 and RM037 watches. It reminded me of the name bracelets that French men and women used to wear, and still wear for that matter. Once again, comfortable, or so I am told! Also complex and comes in a variety of finish...
I can't believe that I would say this about a Richard Mille
By: MTF : January 28th, 2015-16:40
I am astonished and even a little attracted to a Richard Mille watch! Yes - you read this right....admiration from me at last. At first glance, I thought this was a simple gem-set watch. Then, I realised the flower petals opened to reveal the tourbillon! ...
Agreed - there is definitely a move to increase the number of
By: 219 : January 31st, 2015-07:19
complex watches that are specifically designed for ladies. Which is a great thing to see! Richard's are definitely at the forefront of what is available, both in terms of design, and in terms of complexity. Thanks Andrew H
