Richard Mille RM 65-01 Automatic Split-Seconds Chronograph McLaren W1 Limited Edition of 500 (2024)

The Richard Mille “McLaren W1” takes driver-focused design from the track to the wrist. Inspired by McLaren’s hypercar W1, the dynamically sculpted Carbon TPT and grade 5 titanium case measures 43.84 × 49.94 × 16.19 mm, echoing the car’s sculpted profile. Its skeletonized dial features architecture inspired by the W1’s wheel rims, with vibrant papaya-orange pushers, blue highlights, and a branded “Speedmark” crown. The ultra-slim dual-layer titanium bezel—just 0.5 mm at its thinnest—underscores the technical sophistication behind the case design.

Inside, the RMAC4 automatic split‑seconds chronograph movement runs at an elevated 5 Hz (36,000 vph), with double column wheels for smooth activation and a one-tenth-second display. It features a rapid-winding “jump‑start” pusher that immediately recharges the mainspring—an ideal mechanical nod to pit‑stop precision—while delivering a robust 60‑hour power reserve. Limited to 500 pieces, this highly engineered chronograph is a collector’s favorite—a technical powerhouse wrapped in avant-garde automotive style.
