The Richard Mille RM 61-01 Yohan Blake Ultimate Edition represents final iteration of model series celebrating Jamaican sprinter partnership. This tonneau-shaped timepiece measures 50.23mm by 42.70mm utilizing Carbon TPT and Quartz TPT case construction. Skeletonized Grade 5 titanium baseplate exposes manual-winding Caliber RMUL2 delivering 55 hours power reserve. Shock resistance exceeds 5,000 G enabling extreme sports wear. Limited production to 150 pieces creates exclusivity. Water resistance to 50 meters sufficient for daily activities.

Ultimate Edition introduced around 2016 marked final variant utilizing advanced composite materials replacing earlier TZP ceramic constructions. Quartz TPT consists of 600 layers of silica-based material no more than 45 microns thick interlaced with Carbon TPT layers at 45-degree orientation changes creating distinctive visual pattern unique to each watch. Materials heated to 120 degrees Celsius at 6 bar pressure in autoclave before machining reveals random patterns. Caliber RMUL2 contains Grade 5 titanium baseplate and bridges with skeletonized architecture exposing wheel trains and escapement. Variable inertia balance wheel adjusts via eccentric weights without regulator index. Twin barrels connected in series deliver 55-hour autonomy.

Carbon TPT caseband provides lightweight construction weighing significantly less than precious metal alternatives while exceeding strength requirements for shock resistance. Quartz TPT bezel and caseback create translucent appearance with layered texture visible through sapphire crystal. Skeletonized movement architecture exposes mechanical complexity appealing to collectors valuing transparency. Black rubber strap with titanium deployant buckle completes sporty aesthetic. This preowned example represents accessible Richard Mille ownership with limited production 150-piece availability and advanced composite materials creating distinctive appearance. Manual winding requirement connects wearer to mechanical ritual while extreme shock resistance enables wearing during athletic activities honoring Yohan Blake partnership and sprinting heritage.
