RM 30-01 LMC EDITION

A new limited edition of 150 timepieces:
the RM 30-01 Le Mans Classic

The 12th edition of Le Mans Classic will take place from July 3 to 6, 2025. As in previous editions, historic cars will race over 24 hours across six categories, each representing a major era of the 24 Hours of Le Mans from 1923 to 1981. From welcoming around 30,000 spectators at its debut, the event has grown impressively, drawing over 235,000 enthusiasts in 2023.

Richard Mille: a shared passion for the track

Since 2002, Richard Mille has been a principal partner of the event, united by values of celebrating mechanical artistry, honoring automotive heritage, and demonstrating unwavering dedication. Alongside Richard Mille and Dominique Guenat, Maxime Guenat continues this legacy, competing in top-tier historic car races — proof that the brand’s automotive inspiration is vibrantly alive in the next generation, both on and off the track.

The RM 30-01 Le Mans Classic: performance accelerated

Since 2008, Richard Mille has crafted timepieces to honor every edition of Le Mans Classic, resulting in ten special-edition watches adorned in the event’s signature green and white. The new RM 30-01, a limited edition of 150 pieces, commemorates the 12th edition in 2025. It features titanium bezels framing a Green Quartz TPT® caseband, accented by green and orange interior details, a checkered flag motif around the oversized date display, and the Le Mans Classic logo on the sapphire caseback. A racing-style green rubber strap completes this tribute to an event so dear to the brand.

Technical prowess

Developed with the meticulous engineering of a racing machine, the RMAR2 calibre has been specially modified to include a new 24-hour counter, with the “16” highlighted in green to mark the legendary race’s start time — the moment the “green flag” drops.

This new function reshapes the dial’s architecture, echoing the contours of a race circuit. Beneath the titanium bridges and skeletonized baseplate, a 55-hour power reserve display tracks its course. The clutch engagement indicator at 11 o’clock signals whether the rotor is actively winding (on) or disengaged (off), while the function selector at 3 o’clock simplifies choosing the crown setting. Inside and out, the RM 30-01 Le Mans Classic embodies pure racing spirit, a timepiece that proudly celebrates the century-old endurance legend.
