RM 35-02
Prior to 2016, all watches in the "Baby Nadal" collection were manually wound mechanical timepieces. During this period, many Richard Mille clients strongly requested an "automatic" Nadal model suitable for daily wear—one that did not require manual winding every day. Consequently, the RM 35-02 was officially unveiled in May 2016, just before the start of the French Open (Roland Garros). Like the RM 35-01, the RM 35-02 belongs to the Baby Nadal collection; it does not feature a tourbillon but instead utilizes an automatic winding mechanism. The RM 35-02 comes in two base versions—Carbon TPT and Red Quartz TPT—alongside special high-jewelry set editions.
The RM 35-02 differs from its predecessor, the RM 35-01, in the following ways:
1. The RM 35-01 is powered by the manual-winding RMUL3 caliber, requiring the wearer to manually wind the crown to build up power. In contrast, the RM 35-02 features the automatic RMAL1 caliber, equipped with a variable-geometry rotor that automatically generates energy through the movement of the wearer's wrist.
2. The RM 35-01 features a solid Carbon NTPT caseback, concealing the movement from view. The RM 35-02, however, boasts a sapphire crystal caseback—making it the first model in the "Baby Nadal" collection to offer an exhibition back—which allows for a clear view of the skeletonized movement and rotor.
3. The RM 35-01 case measures 49.94 x 42.00 x 14.05 mm. The RM 35-02 case is wider and thicker, with lines that appear more angular and robust, measuring 49.94 x 44.50 x 13.15 mm. Despite the addition of an automatic winding system, the watch is actually nearly 1 mm thinner; furthermore, the wider case and more streamlined curvature ensure a better fit on the wrist.
Craftsmanship: Genuine vs Super-Clone
Genuine Product
The bezel, case back, and caseband are all crafted from Carbon TPT®—a material utilized in aerospace and Formula 1 racing—featuring a distinctive layered grain reminiscent of Damascus steel or natural wood. Excluding the strap, the watch weighs approximately 30g and offers exceptional resistance to torsion, fatigue, and micro-cracking.
This Top Replica
The bezel, case back, and caseband are all crafted from carbon fiber composite. While it does not utilize the aerospace-grade carbon fiber found in the genuine article, it employs the same thin-layer composite technology. Multiple ultra-thin layers of carbon fiber are stacked and pressed with fibers randomly crisscrossing at 45-degree angles, then machined using 5-axis CNC technology to replicate the genuine model's Damascus-style "water-wave/cloud" pattern and subtle black-to-gray gradient. Furthermore, regarding the signature RM pentagonal screws: instead of simply drilling and screwing directly into the carbon fiber, specialized metal threaded sleeves are embedded internally. This structural design mirrors the genuine watch exactly, allowing for repeated disassembly while significantly enhancing the case's torsional rigidity and water resistance—a key factor distinguishing top-tier replicas from ordinary fakes.
This custom RMAL1 integrated replica movement perfectly reproduces the unique, tiered "peninsula-style" skeletonized structure of the RM 35-02. It features a fully functional gear train and authentic skeletonization; when the crown is manually wound, the transmission gears and the barrel—located at the upper-left and center of the dial—rotate and contract in visual synchronization. Although the replica's automatic rotor is crafted from Grade 2 titanium, the main wing, the white-gold-colored outer weight, and the micro-adjustment screws at the joints are all deconstructed and assembled according to the original proportions. The damping feel of the rotor's rotation and the subtle sound of the bearings have been refined through noise reduction and weight balancing, avoiding the cheap, hollow rattling often found in low-end fakes. The only limitation is that, while the original watch features a "variable-geometry rotor" with adjustable vanes to tune winding efficiency, the rotor on this top-tier RM 35-02 replica achieves only a 1:1 visual match. As this is a replica of the RMAL1 movement rather than the genuine article, it lacks that aerospace-grade mechanical adjustment function—a feature currently unattainable due to technical and cost constraints.
John Studio has further refined the movement's details, applying a brushed finish and chamfering to the edges and shock-absorption components to minimize visible imperfections when viewed through the case back. Both the front and back of the watch feature ultra-hard sapphire crystal with a blue-violet anti-reflective coating; under specific lighting angles, the crystal emits a subtle deep-blue sheen, significantly enhancing the dial's mechanical transparency and sense of profound depth.
Regarding weight, a hallmark of RM watches is their extreme lightness. To capture this quality, this top-tier RM 35-02 replica utilizes a skeletonized Grade 5 titanium framework and a genuine carbon fiber case, keeping the total weight around 58g (or even under 50g when paired with a Velcro canvas strap).

Low-end Replica
To cut costs, the watch case is largely made of low-grade carbon fiber finished with a high-gloss lacquer coating; the "Damascus-style" wavy patterns are not created by machining through multiple layers of carbon fiber but are instead applied via surface printing, laser marking, or fixed patterns molded during injection. The texture completely lacks the three-dimensional interplay of black and gray tones and the satin-like sheen found in genuine articles, appearing instead stiff and dull. Unable to achieve a true skeletonized movement design, the watch houses a standard solid-back movement and places a wafer-thin, low-quality metal sheet—a "fake bridge"—over it. Naturally, the decorative gears and titanium-alloy framework are non-functional. The strap uses industrial-grade silicone rather than premium fluoroelastomer (which is soft, skin-friendly, and dust-repellent); consequently, it is stiff, fails to conform well to the wrist, and tends to trap sweat during prolonged wear.
Water Resistance
This top replica watch features waterproof seals embedded in the gaps between the bezel, the case middle, and the case back. The assembly is then secured vertically by applying high, uniform torque to twelve titanium spline screws, utilizing the compression and deformation of the rubber gaskets to hermetically seal the case. The crown is a critical component; subject to frequent use, it is prone to wear. While the genuine timepiece employs a torque-limiting crown and a sophisticated, patented diving-grade sealing system, cost constraints limit this replica to a traditional push-pull crown structure, relying solely on a rubber gasket within the crown tube for the seal. Although its water resistance (rated at 20 meters) surpasses that of the RM 11 "super replica" series, it is suitable only for incidental water exposure in daily life, such as hand-washing, sweating, or light rain. It is worth noting that even genuine models—nominally rated for 50 meters of water resistance—are effectively limited to everyday exposure; activities such as swimming, diving, surfing, or showering still carry significant risk. This is primarily due to the complex "sandwich" construction, tonneau-shaped case, and signature five-screw design characteristic of RM watches.
Compatibility with Genuine Parts
John Studio emphasizes "part interchangeability." Key elements—such as the curvature of the case, the rubber rings on the strap, the soft natural latex strap itself, and the dimensions of the titanium folding clasp—are fully interchangeable with genuine, authentic parts. This is one of the primary features that distinguishes our studio's products from other versions on the market.
