BBR top-spec RM35-02: NTPT carbon fibre case at 50 g, RMAL1 skeletonised automatic movement, sapphire anti-glare crystal, and titanium deployant clasp.
Richard Mille's RM 35-02 was developed as the ultimate companion for elite sport — Rafael Nadal wore a version on his wrist through a Grand Slam. BBR factory's replica matches the engineering ambition of the original with its own top-spec build. The case is formed from imported NTPT carbon fibre, which replicates the original's distinctive layered wood-grain surface pattern and brings the total case weight to just 50 grams — a featherlight presence on the wrist even with the movement installed. Interior structural components and case-back hardware are machined from aerospace-grade titanium, with CNC tolerances tight enough that case-half gaps are imperceptible. The RMAL1 skeletonised automatic movement provides a window into the architecture of the watch; a white jewel shock absorber is visible at the balance wheel, a signature RM detail. The dial frame features the trademark black-and-red racing track shadowgraph. Sapphire crystal with dual-side anti-glare coatings protects the display. The watch ships with both a natural rubber strap and a Velcro woven sports strap, both shaped to hug the wrist curve. Titanium fold-over deployant clasp.
The case is made from an NTPT-style carbon fibre composite that reproduces the directional layered weave of the original material. It is not a painted or printed effect.
BBR is one of the top factories for RM replicas. The case architecture, skeletonised movement architecture, and strap construction are very closely matched to the reference.
It comes with an RM-style rubber strap with the characteristic Velcro-style closure system. The strap can be swapped to an aftermarket rubber or leather strap using the standard RM strap tool.
