Richard Mille RM 055 Bubba Watson White Ceramic Watch

The Richard Mille RM 055 Bubba Watson is one of the most recognizable sports-watch designs associated with the Richard Mille name. Created around the demands of golf, the RM 055 combines an aggressively modern tonneau-shaped case with an extremely technical skeletonised movement.

The original RM 055 Bubba Watson was introduced in 2012 and features the RMUL2 manual-winding skeletonised movement with hours, minutes, and seconds. Richard Mille explains that the model was inspired by the RM 038 Bubba Watson tourbillon presented in 2011.

White Ceramic Design

The Richard Mille RM 055 Bubba Watson White Ceramic version brings a bright, distinctive appearance to the technical RM 055 design. The white ceramic case and matching sporty strap create a clean contrast against the darker mechanical components visible through the open-work dial.

The ceramic styling gives the watch a contemporary luxury appearance while maintaining the aggressive sports-watch character associated with the RM 055.

RM 055 Skeletonised Dial

A major attraction of the RM 055 Skeleton Watch is its open-work dial. Instead of concealing the mechanical architecture, the skeletonised design exposes the movement and creates a layered three-dimensional appearance.

The RMUL2 movement uses extensive skeletonisation and is constructed around grade 5 titanium components. Richard Mille describes the baseplate and bridges as receiving PVD and Titalyt® treatments to provide rigidity and precise surface flatness.

RMUL2 Manual-Winding Movement

At the heart of the Richard Mille RM 055 Bubba Watson is the RMUL2 manual-winding movement. It displays hours, minutes, and seconds while maintaining the highly technical appearance expected from an open-work luxury watch.

The movement is designed around a grade 5 titanium construction and features extreme skeletonisation. The official Richard Mille portfolio identifies the RMUL2 as a manual-winding movement with bridges and baseplate machined from grade 5 titanium.

Designed for Sporting Performance

The RM 055 was developed around the physical demands of golf. Richard Mille describes golf as a sport combining precise preparation with the sudden shock and acceleration of a golf swing.

The RMUL2 calibre was engineered to withstand accelerations of more than 500 g, according to Richard Mille’s official historical model information.

This technical focus gives the watch its distinctive high-performance character and separates it from conventional luxury dress watches.

Signature Tonneau Case

The tonneau-shaped case is central to the identity of the Richard Mille RM 055 Bubba Watson. Its curved silhouette, exposed screws, layered construction, and strong architectural lines create an instantly recognizable sports-luxury appearance.

The oversized profile gives the watch substantial wrist presence, making it particularly appealing to enthusiasts who prefer bold and unconventional timepieces.

Bubba Watson Inspiration

The RM 055 Bubba Watson was developed around professional golfer Bubba Watson and the specific physical demands of his sport. The model followed the RM 038 Bubba Watson tourbillon and translated its sporting concept into a manual-winding skeleton watch.

This connection gives the RM 055 more than just a distinctive appearance. Its design philosophy is closely linked to precision, movement, shock resistance, and athletic performance.

White Ceramic and Sporty Luxury

The combination of white ceramic styling, skeletonised mechanics, and a tonneau case gives this watch a powerful contemporary aesthetic.

It can work as a statement piece with casual outfits, premium streetwear, sports-inspired clothing, or luxury evening styling. The white exterior also makes the mechanical interior stand out more clearly.
