The Richard Mille RM 27-04 Tourbillon Rafael Nadal watch marks a decade of collaboration between Richard Mille and tennis legend Rafael Nadal. This extraordinary timepiece captures the spirit of tennis with its unique design inspired by a tennis racket.

The watch’s tonneau-shaped case is innovative and layered, featuring Nadal’s nickname, ‘RAFA,’ engraved on the side. Breaking away from traditional watchmaking, the RM 27-04 forgoes the conventional dial. Instead, it uses a delicate steel cable, just 0.27mm in diameter, to weave a mesh that suspends within the case. This not only contributes to the watch’s lightness but also provides remarkable shock resistance, protecting the movement from high-impact forces.

The mesh dial is complemented by skeletonized hands, adding to the watch’s sporty and airy aesthetic. The RM 27-04 is a bold statement in the world of professional sports watches, pushing the boundaries of design and engineering.
