The development of the RM 65-01, spanning five years, underscores Richard Mille's dedication to pushing the boundaries of technical excellence. Housed within the lightweight yet exceptionally durable Quartz TPT case is the automatic RMAC4 movement, ensuring a robust 60-hour power reserve. A distinctive feature of this model is the rapid winding mechanism, an innovative solution activated via a pusher at 8 o'clock, allowing for swift recharging of the watch's energy reserves.

This model doesn't just excel in functionality; it also impresses with its style. The pastel blue version alludes to iconic motorsport liveries with its dark blue, orange, and chronograph hands, while the dark yellow edition radiates a vibrant, summery appeal. Both feature a 30-minute timer, 12-hour timer, small seconds, date function, and are partially skeletonized for a glimpse into the intricate mechanics inside.
