Richard Mille launches new RM 30-01 with detachable rotor
The successor to the RM 030 is available in two versions.
Luxury watchmaker Richard Mille has announced the launch of the RM 30-01 automatic watch with detachable rotor, the predecessor to the RM 030, which features a series of updates and upgrades. This new masterpiece is a testament to the brand's twenty-year journey, combining ergonomic design, pure lines, outstanding finishes and technical prowess.
The RM 30-01 stands out for its patented detachable rotor, a major innovation in the world of horology, as traditional automatic watches use a rotor to wind the watch until optimal tension is reached - beyond which point over-winding may harmful debris into the watch. system. What’s special about the RM 30-01 is that it automatically disconnects the oscillating weight from the barrel once winding is complete, thus preventing over-winding and ensuring the longevity of the watch mechanism. This automatic disengagement occurs between 40 and 55 hours of power reserve, and a clutch engagement indicator keeps the user informed of the current phase of the rotors.

At the heart of this watch is the Caliber RMAR2, powered by a skeletonized self-winding movement with numerous functions, including an oversized date display positioned horizontally at 4 o’clock. In addition, there is a unique function selector at 2 o'clock, reminiscent of a car gearbox, allowing users to easily switch between winding, date setting and hand setting functions.
In terms of workmanship and materials, the baseplate and bridges are made from a mix of 90% grade 5 titanium, 6% aluminum and 4% vanadium to ensure the smooth operation of the gear train. Notably, this particular alloy is favored in aerospace and automotive manufacturing due to its light weight and durability.
The case of the RM 30-01 embodies technical and design complexity, drawing inspiration from Formula 1 racing cars, with a harmonious chassis and engine. The movement is delicately mounted on chassis-mounting rubber and secured with grade 5 titanium screws, and the iconic tonneau-shaped case is crafted from a mix of satin-finished, micro-sandblasted and polished titanium and weighs just 96 grams.
