Lux&Co is offering the Richard Mille RM 009 Tourbillon Felipe Massa, available for purchase now. This groundbreaking tourbillon wristwatch set new standards in haute horlogerie upon its release, combining extraordinary lightness and avant‑garde engineering to deliver a truly remarkable collector’s timepiece. The RM 009 was introduced in 2005 and became the lightest mechanical tourbillon wristwatch in the world at the time, weighing just 29 grams without the strap. This record‑breaking weight was achieved through innovative use of ALUSIC®, a proprietary metal matrix composite made of aluminium, silicon and carbon originally reserved for aerospace applications. The rugged yet feather‑light case houses a fully skeletonised manual‑winding tourbillon Calibre RM009, showcasing hours and minutes with a striking technical aesthetic. Inside, a movement baseplate made from aluminium‑lithium alloy was also a first in watchmaking, dramatically reducing weight while maintaining rigidity and stability. Named in honour of Formula 1 driver Felipe Massa, this model was engineered to withstand vibrations, shock and rapid motion inherent in motorsport performance. With its bold tonneau profile, skeletonised architecture and ultra‑light construction, the RM 009 Tourbillon Felipe Massa remains a defining example of Richard Mille’s relentless pursuit of technical innovation.
