Richard Mille RM 67-02 Mutaz Essa Barshim — Automatic Extra Flat, 2022
Quartz TPT | Skeleton Dial, Qatari Red & White | 38.7 x 47.52mm | Full Set
A watch built for the crown prince of the high jump. The RM 67-02 Mutaz Essa Barshim is Richard Mille's collaboration with the Olympic high jump champion, developed to feel like an extension of his body during competition rather than an accessory to it — Barshim himself has described the brief as wanting something that "feels like part of my body." The result sits on the same ultra-light, ultra-flat automatic platform as the rest of the 67-02 family, tuned for an athlete whose sport punishes anything that shifts or distracts mid-jump.
The case is built entirely from Quartz TPT, a composite of hundreds of layers of quartz filament fused with resin and machined to a distinctive marbled finish — chosen here in vivid burgundy and white to reflect the Qatari flag. At just 32 grams complete with strap, it remains one of the lightest automatic watches Richard Mille has ever produced. The skeletonised CRMA7 calibre is built from grade 5 titanium with a black and white DLC treatment, finished with satin brushing, microblasting and hand-bevelling across the bridges, and rated to a 50-hour power reserve.
Why collectors seek out the RM 67-02 Mutaz Essa Barshim:
- Quartz TPT case in Qatari red and white — a genuinely rare colourway tied to a specific athlete partnership, not a standard production run
- One of the lightest automatic watches in existence at roughly 32 grams complete
- Skeletonised CRMA7 calibre in grade 5 titanium, hand-finished bridges, 50-hour power reserve
- Ultra-thin tonneau case engineered for elite athletic performance and shock resistance
- A rare production year within an already limited-run collection
