About Richard Mille
The most technically extreme watches ever made.
When Richard Mille launched his eponymous brand in Les Breuleux in 2001, he set out to create the lightest, most shock-resistant watches ever built — watches that could be worn during the most demanding physical activities on earth. Drawing on materials from Formula 1 and aerospace — TPT carbon, carbon nanotubes, titanium, LITAL alloy, and grade 5 titanium — each RM movement is engineered to withstand forces that would destroy a conventional watch. Worn by Rafael Nadal on the tennis court, McLaren drivers at 200mph, and sprinters like Wayde van Niekerk at full speed, Richard Mille proved that a luxury watch can be a genuinely functional instrument. Total production across all references is fewer than 5,000 pieces per year, with many individual limited editions numbering in the tens. This extreme scarcity, combined with global demand from collectors and athletes, makes pre-owned Richard Mille watches among the most compelling and appreciating assets in horology.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I buy an authenticated pre-owned Richard Mille?
Prosperity Time specialises in pre-owned Richard Mille watches. Given the brand's exotic materials (TPT carbon, titanium alloys, carbon nanotubes), authentication requires specialist knowledge. We verify movement serials, case materials, and hand-finishing against factory references, and issue a written authenticity guarantee with every piece.
Why are Richard Mille watches so expensive?
Richard Mille produces fewer than 5,000 watches per year across all references — many individual models are limited to a few hundred pieces globally. Each uses aerospace and motorsport materials and houses movements of extraordinary technical complexity. Ultra-limited supply combined with global demand creates significant secondary market premiums.
Which Richard Mille references are the most collectible?
The RM 011 flyback chronograph is the brand's signature piece and commands strong resale prices. The RM 035, RM 027, and any limited 'artist' or 'sport' edition with fewer than 30 pieces produced are highly collectible. TPT carbon and carbon nanofibre versions typically command premiums over titanium.
