Richard Mille is giving the RM 07-01 Coloured Ceramics collection a suitably vivid send-off in 2026 with three new limited editions, each restricted to 50 pieces. The trio builds on the Art Deco-inflected language first introduced in 2021, now adding a stronger jewelry dimension through diamond-set bezels and gemstone accents across the dial architecture.
Pastel TZP Ceramic Meets High-Jewelry Colour
The three versions — Blush Pink, Lavender Pink and Powder Blue — retain the familiar RM 07-01 tonneau case, measuring 31.40 mm by 45.23 mm and 11.85 mm thick. In Richard Mille terms, the shape is instantly recognizable, but the use of soft-toned TZP ceramic gives the watch a more playful, almost confectionary presence on the wrist.
What changes the character of these final editions is the gem-setting. Diamonds frame the bezel and reappear at the centre of the dial, while coloured stones are paired to complement each ceramic case. Yellow and azure sapphires, pink sapphires with tsavorites, and orange sapphires with rubies each create a different chromatic balance, turning the watch into a study in contrast rather than a simple pastel exercise.
An Openworked Dial With an Art Deco Pulse
The RM 07-01 Coloured Ceramics line has always stood apart for its graphic dial treatment. Rather than using a conventional full dial, Richard Mille works with open spaces, layered geometry and decorative forms that nod to Art Deco without becoming nostalgic. In these 2026 editions, the gemstones sit within that architectural composition, making the decoration feel integrated rather than merely applied.
That is an important distinction for this collection. The RM 07-01 is not trying to be a traditional gem-set dress watch. Its appeal lies in the collision of materials: polished stones, matte ceramic, skeletonized mechanics and bold colour. It is unmistakably a Richard Mille, but one aimed at collectors who prefer the brand’s more expressive and jewelry-adjacent side.
The CRMA2 Calibre Keeps the Focus Mechanical
Inside the case is Richard Mille’s in-house CRMA2 automatic calibre, a movement built to display hours and minutes with a power reserve of around 50 hours. The technical package includes a variable-geometry rotor, designed to optimize winding efficiency according to the wearer’s activity, along with a fast-rotating barrel for improved energy delivery.
The sapphire caseback keeps the mechanical finishing visible, including hand-polished anglage on movement components. It is a reminder that, despite the strong decorative language, these watches still sit within Richard Mille’s broader culture of highly engineered, extensively finished calibres.
A Final Run of 150 Watches
With 50 examples of each colourway, the 2026 RM 07-01 Coloured Ceramics editions close the collection with a total production run of 150 watches. For Richard Mille collectors, that final-chapter framing will matter; the RM 07-01 has become one of the brand’s key platforms for combining compact proportions, technical materials and high-impact visual design.
These last editions are likely to appeal most to clients who already understand Richard Mille’s design vocabulary but want something softer, brighter and more jewel-like than the brand’s motorsport-leaning pieces. The result is not subtle, but it is carefully composed: a pastel ceramic finale that brings colour, diamonds and mechanical watchmaking into the same sharply defined frame.
