Miles Chamley-Watson, a British-born American right-handed foil fencer, 11-time team Pan American champion, 2019 team world champion, 2013 individual world champion, two-time Olympian, and 2016 team Olympic bronze medalist has signed on as brand ambassador for Richard Mille.

His style is unique, some might even say unorthodox, as are Richard Mille watches. He even has his own eponymous move – ‘The Chamley-Watson’ – a deft behind-the-back flick to his opponent’s side.

Miles wears the RM 67-01 Automatic Extra Flat in white gold set with diamonds. The timepiece hugs the wrist with a slim case that holds the in-house calibre CRMA6, a highly skeletonised movement that measures just 3.6mm thick. It also features a gearbox-style function indicator that switches between winding, date and hand-setting mode.

"I love seeing the movement, the dials. It’s so much what fencing is all about – precision, timing and style. Above all, it’s a brand that refuses to do things like everyone else. You dare to be different, like me. We should join forces and change the world ! Touché!"

Wearing his RM 67-01, Miles won 2022 Tokyo Team World Cup with Team USA, a fitting tribute to the budding partnership.
