The RM 71-01 Automatic Tourbillon Talisman, which took three years to make, is not just more proof that women's timepieces figure big in Richard Mille's collection. It also signals that the luxury watch brand, better known for technical and high-performance watches for men, is raising its game in making timepieces for women.
"Women's watches have represented a considerable percentage of our sales for several years now," says the brand's co-founder Richard Mille. "That said, we needed a modern, creative and talented young woman to inject new energy into our status quo and take the women's collection to new heights."
The dazzling, bejewelled RM 71-01, powered by an automatic tourbillon movement that's Richard Mille's first of the kind, has been literally given a woman's touch. The team that created it was led by Cecile Guenat, who graduated from the Geneva School of Arts and Design and earned her spurs in the world of fine jewellery. She is the daughter of Richard Mille's co-founder Dominique Guenat.
