my answer
RM 005-1 richard mille by philippe stark 1 unique piece for the "only watch 2005" charity auction Andrew, is this considered "an actual watch number" ? Otherwise, it's the RM001 as SteveH has already mentioned. Plus, RM001 isn't even on RM's website anymo...

You guys all think they made less 4's than 8's? Interesting...

WOW! So many answers! My thanks to everyone who contributed. The answer, as I see it,
is (drum roll please), the RM001. A lot of people know a great deal about Richard Mille watches and thank you to everyone. Given how I defined the question, where V1, V2, 1A, FM and anything do not count, then the RM001 is the rarest. True, the RM005-1A i...
