Gold case · sculpted dragon and phoenix · manual tourbillon
A dragon and a phoenix hand-engraved and set across a running tourbillon. Made in single-figure quantities per version.
The RM 57-01 puts a dragon and a phoenix — the Chinese symbols of the emperor and the empress — across the face of a manual-winding tourbillon. The figures are cut, engraved and finished by hand in gold and lacquer, then fitted around a movement that has to keep running underneath them, which is the whole engineering problem.
It was made with Jackie Chan and released in very small numbers across several case materials: gold, titanium and sapphire among them. The versions differ substantially in how the sculpture reads against the case, so “the RM 57-01” is not one watch to source but a small family of them.
Tell us which version you have seen. On a piece produced in single figures per variant, naming the right one at the start is most of what decides whether a search is realistic at all.

The RM 57-01 is the older of the two sculpted tourbillons and the one with more than one case. A photograph of the version you have seen is the fastest way to start.

Which case version you want, and whether you would consider the others. A photograph of the one you have seen is the most useful thing you can send.
Confirmed for each request from our network. Richard Mille art pieces are made in tiny series and rarely come to market on demand; we say what is realistic rather than promise a date.
Richard Mille box, warranty card, booklets, spare straps and any service records are itemised for the individual watch we propose.
Condition of the case and crystal, the state of the sculpture and its lacquer under magnification, provenance, service history and verification arrangements are set out before you decide.
Send the reference by WhatsApp or the form, with the dial, set and timing that matter to you. A collection or a style is enough to begin.
We go to our network rather than a boutique list, and come back with what is realistic on availability and timing before you commit to anything.
Condition, documents and what accompanies the watch are set out in writing for the individual piece we propose. You decide with the details in front of you.
Bank transfer in any major currency, or crypto. Collection in London or fully insured delivery, agreed for the watch and the destination.
Any brand, any reference, whether or not it appears on this site. Tell us what you have in mind and we take it from there.
Very few, and the count differs by case material. We confirm the series size and the provenance for the specific watch we propose rather than quote a figure from memory.
It sits across the face of the movement itself, which is skeletonised rather than covered by a conventional dial. That is why the assembly is the difficult part.
Send a photograph of what you have seen. The gold, titanium and sapphire versions read very differently, and identifying the right one at the start decides whether a search is realistic.
Yes. Bank transfer in any major currency, or crypto; Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum, USDT and other major coins and stablecoins are accepted. The coin, network and amount are confirmed with you before any transfer.
An exact reference or an idea is enough to start the conversation. We will take care of the search and discuss the options with you.
