Inspired by the RM 35-01, the RM 35-02 was created in response to numerous requests from Richard Mille customers for a self-winding movement featuring the Nadal caliber. The choice to incorporate the brand's patented variable geometry rotor—an iconic feature of Richard Mille's automatic movements—was natural, allowing the winding to be tailored to the wearer’s activity level. In another innovation for the Nadal collection, the caseback is safeguarded by a sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective treatment, enabling the caliber to be admired from every angle.
