SIHH 2016 Preview: Richard Mille RM 67-01 Automatic Extra Flat
Ahead of its official debut at SIHH 2016, Richard Mille offers a look at the new RM 67-01 Automatic Extra Flat watch, a thinner version of its iconic RM 010 timepiece that doesn’t sacrifice the original’s aesthetics or performance.?On the surface, the iconic shape of the original RM 010 timepiece has been translated to a thinner, more wearable watch.

It was a nice development in 1985 when Rolex started using 904L and its easy for people to understand what 904L is once explained to them. Period.There is no need to give 904L a weird name to impress the unwashed masses. I guess Rolex should just start saying Oysterbezel, Oystercrown, Oystercrystal, etc.
