You’re right—let me give it a more unique editorial flair.
Richard Mille and Ferrari have created a collaboration that’s as much about precision engineering as it is about pushing boundaries. The RM 42-01 Tourbillon Ferrari isn’t just a watch—it’s a statement. A mechanical masterpiece that channels the speed and sophistication of Ferrari’s racing heritage, crafted meticulously into a timepiece that’s as dynamic as the machines it draws inspiration from.
Form Born from Function
Crafted with a unique blend of Quartz TPT® and Carbon TPT®, the RM 42-01 Tourbillon Ferrari mirrors the aerodynamic design principles of Ferrari’s Formula 1 chassis. Its distinctive tonneau shape isn’t just visually striking—it’s engineered to minimize drag, framing the movement like a finely tuned engine bay. The skeletonized bridges and baseplates highlight the tourbillon at the heart of the timepiece, offering a view into the intricate mechanics, much like uncovering the powerhouse of a high-performance supercar.
At its core, the RM 42-01 Tourbillon Ferrari houses a manually wound tourbillon movement, developed entirely in-house. This movement is built for both precision and durability, echoing the same qualities that define Ferrari’s racing legacy. Positioned at 11 o’clock, the power reserve indicator seamlessly blends functionality with style, maintaining an aggressive design that calls to mind Ferrari’s iconic dashboard gauges. Even the red accents seem to scream speed, adding an unmistakable edge to this mechanical masterpiece.
Crafted for Champions
The RM 42-01 doesn’t just carry the Ferrari badge—it personifies it. With design elements inspired by aerodynamics, technical craftsmanship rivaling that of a race-ready V12, and a build engineered to endure intense G-forces, it’s clear why the watch was seen on the wrists of Ferrari’s F1 drivers during off-track engagements in the 2025 season. This timepiece is as much a part of Ferrari’s legacy as the cars themselves.
Owning the RM 42-01 is like wearing a piece of Scuderia Ferrari’s design genius and engineering excellence on your wrist. With its rarity and intricate technical craftsmanship, this timepiece isn’t just something to be collected—it’s destined to be revered. A true fusion of art and performance, the RM 42-01 stands as a testament to both Ferrari’s legacy and the relentless pursuit of precision.
