Richard Mille Swings In Its First Women’s Sports Watch
Richard Mille is renowned for producing opulent and high-performance timepieces for men, but the brand has just unveiled its first-ever women’s sports watch. The ‘RM 07-04 Automatic Sport’ meets the needs of female athletes wishing to look fashionable while defeating the competition.
The watch took three years to design and resulted from the brand’s collaboration with athletes such as high jumper Yuliya Levchenko, runner Nafi Thiam, golfer Nelly Korda, and racing drivers Aurora Straus and Margot Laffite, and snowboarder Ester Ledecká.
The new Richard Mille women’s sports watch is available in two versions: the Quartz TPT and Carbon TPT. Its sleek and contemporary design uses lightweight materials like titanium for its crown, baseplate, and bridge. Its weight comes in at just 1.2 ounces, including its Velcro strap.

The Carbon TPT model comes in an edgy black colorway, while the Quartz TPT arrives in creamy white, mauve, salmon, green, and dark blue for those looking to add some spice on the court and to their wardrobe.
The RM 07-04 takes after the brand’s iconic curved rectangular tonneau form. And to give it a touch of elegance, diamonds are dotted along the edge.

In addition to looking stylish, the RM 07-04 is water-resistant for up to 164 feet, making it suitable for swimmers or other aquatic athletes. On top of that, it has a chronograph function which allows its wearers to time their activities accurately. Lastly, it has 50 hours of battery life to get you through endless training.
Richard Mille has always been a reputable name in the luxury watch market, and its latest entrance finally acknowledges the power of women in sports. Although, anyone—not just women—can enjoy its timeless aesthetic.
The RM 07-04 Automatic Sport is currently retailing for US$185,000.
