We saw before expensive cufflinks but the cufflinks by Richard Mille are complex and extremely technical. In fact two years of work went into creating and designing these cufflinks, consisting of no fewer than 38 components each.

The Richard Mille automatic cufflinks take their inspiration from the same process of creation and development as a Richard Mille watch movement.

Made from grade 5 titanium (a diamond-set version will follow soon), Richard Mille cufflinks inaugurate a groundbreaking and patented mechanism that opens the bars using a push-piece. Instead of using a pivoting bar on the cufflink holds the double uff in place, Richard Mille’s design fastens the cuff using two titanium bars. These open with a simple press of the push-piece and close by pressing on the top plate.

The cufflinks’ upper surfaces are satin-brushed, bead-blasted and bevelled by hand, creating an exceptional finish of the utmost elegance.

Richard Mille cufflinks are now and are guaranteed for two years.
