Maltie shares their journey into the Richard Mille club with the RM67-01 Ti "Life Style," a watch that defied initial expectations to become a beloved acquisition. The post highlights the watch's exceptional comfort and lightweight design, offering a personal account of ownership. Maltie's experience provides valuable insights into the appeal of this specific Richard Mille reference.

If you would have asked me 5 years ago, I would have said “No Way” but having seen a few RM in the flesh, it started to grow on me and today I couldn’t be more happier with the purchase of the 67. The watch sits as a glove on my wrist and the mere 62gram makes it probably the most comfortable watch of my collection. I only regret the poor water 30m resistance but I guess I’ll have to swim with another watch instead. No regrets so far and it seems to stick on my wrist for a few days already.

Key Points from the Discussion

The RM67-01's slender case and tonneau shape make it an ideal daily wear piece, showcasing cutting-edge watchmaking in a comfortable form factor.
Many collectors, initially hesitant about Richard Mille, find themselves drawn to the brand after experiencing the watches in person, often acquiring multiple pieces due to their comfort.
The 30m water resistance of the RM67-01 is a notable drawback for some, with a desire for higher water resistance, such as 100m, in tonneau-shaped models from Richard Mille.
The slim design of the RM67-01 is a significant attraction, with some collectors preferring it over thicker Richard Mille models like the RM 05, 10, 29, or 35.
Changing straps on Richard Mille watches may not be straightforward, suggesting a need for professional assistance or careful consideration of strap options.

I agree

Years ago I thought I would never buy one and after trying them on I now have multiple! They are by far the most comfortable watches in my collection. Agree on the water resistance. They really need to offer 100m in a tonneau shape. 100m is still not that much for a high tech manufacturer like RM

Congrats. I've flirted with this reference a few times as it's one of the few RM which are wearable for me.

Did you have any hesitation about the slim case or was that a major attraction? While fantastic on the wrist, and the slimness of the case enhances this, I can never get my head past the visual my mind has for RM which is the thicker RM 05, 10, 29, 35 etc (again the more wearable of the collection for a smaller wrist and equally as comfortable as the 67 I think).
