Two Halves. Two Versions. One Pricey Kick.

Richard Mille’s RM 41-01 Tourbillon Soccer isn’t your typical sports watch. It’s a five-year experiment in merging soccer with haute horlogerie.

This watch introduces two new complications: a match-phase indicator and a mechanical goal counter, all wrapped in Red Carmin Basalt TPT. Limited to 30 pieces per version, it’s not just about telling time—it’s about tracking the game.

Inside, you’ll find the RM41-01 titanium calibre. It features a tourbillon escapement, 70-hour power reserve, and a flyback chronograph. The match-time indicator at 9 o'clock keeps track of game phases, advancing with each chronograph reset. It’s technical and sport-specific.

The movement is microblasted grade 5 titanium, skeletonized to fit its 650 components. Two column wheels manage the flyback chronograph without unnecessary layering. It’s all about optimizing function over form.

Richard Mille takes skeletonization seriously here—every part is meticulously crafted to remove excess weight while showcasing hand-finishing techniques. It’s extreme architecture with extreme finishes.

The case doesn’t compromise either. Available in Basalt TPT or Dark Blue Quartz TPT, it combines mechanical performance with resistance to chemicals and UV rays. The pushers offer uniform tactile feedback thanks to calibrated levers and a patented double-column-wheel design.

This isn’t just a watch; it’s a mechanical tribute to soccer. Priced for those who appreciate complexity and practicality in equal measure. You’ll know if it’s for you.
