Built on the Rafael Nadal sport platform, this Richard Mille RM 35-01 super clone pairs a bright white ceramic tonneau case with a cyan rubber strap and matching crown, giving the RM 35-01 a cool, daylight-friendly identity. The full reference — Richard Mille RM 35-01 Rafael Nadal “White Ceramic Blue Strap” — sits toward the fresher end of the RM 35-01 colour range, where the pale case and light-blue accent read as intentional rather than loud.

White Ceramic on the Nadal Tonneau

At approximately 44.50 x 49.94 mm, the case keeps standard RM-035 proportions, and the white ceramic shell is what sets this rm35-01 apart from the carbon-cased siblings. Blue sits in the middle ground between neutral black and attention-grabbing yellow, so the cyan strap gives this RM 35-01 variant a distinct personality without overwhelming the skeleton tonneau design. Beneath the blue-tint sapphire crystal, a skeletonised grade-5 titanium baseplate keeps the piece one of the lightest mechanical watches on the wrist — the lightweight feel Rafa’s genuine rm 35 01 is known for. This is the Richard Mille replica to reach for when you want the ceramic look rather than the usual dark composite.

The Cyan Strap and Crown

BBR Factory matched a light-blue (cyan) rubber strap to a cyan rubber-coated crown, so the accent colour wraps around the whole case instead of sitting only at the wrist. The rubber compound stays flexible across temperature ranges and resists UV fading over extended outdoor wear. Against the white ceramic, the cyan picks up daylight and shifts subtly indoors versus outdoors; paired with a white shirt or denim it reads as crisp and deliberate. Collectors who want the same case in a quieter mood can move to the RM 35-01 White Ceramic Black Velcro super clone without leaving the RM 35-01 replica collection.

Manual Cal. RMUL3 with Central Seconds

This RM 35-01 is a manual-winding watch, not an automatic: the clone Cal. RMUL3 is hand-wound and drives hours, minutes and a central seconds hand tipped in red — a genuine three-hand layout, like the RM 055 and unlike the hours-and-minutes RM 67. That hand-wound movement is the technical line that separates the manual 35-01 from the automatic RM 35-02 Nadal automatic super clone, which uses a rotor. The skeletonised bridges let you watch the going train through the open dial, and the manual winding skeleton runs at 28,800 vph with a 48-hour clone power reserve (the genuine RMUL3 holds roughly 55 hours). Water resistance is rated to 50 m.

How the White Ceramic Blue Compares

Within the Nadal line, the cyan-on-white combination is the brightest everyday option — more personality than black, less shout than the yellow-strap carbon edition. If you prefer the darker, sportier look, the RM 35-01 Black Carbon Yellow Strap super clone keeps things loud, while this white ceramic rm-35-01 leans cleaner and dressier. For a wider view of how the manual Nadal pieces rank against the automatic and tourbillon models, our best Richard Mille super clones guide covers the whole range, and the full Richard Mille replica catalogue lists every reference. A rafael nadal watch replica this clean is rarely the cheapest option, yet the white ceramic finish is where the value sits.

RM 35-01 White Ceramic Blue Strap FAQ

How much does the RM 35-01 White Ceramic Blue Strap super clone cost?

This RM 35-01 White Ceramic Blue Strap super clone is priced around $879, which puts the white ceramic Nadal toward the mid-range of the RM 35-01 for-sale listings rather than the cheapest carbon versions.

How can you spot a fake RM 35-01 White Ceramic Blue Strap?

The quickest tell on an RM 35-01 White Ceramic Blue Strap is the movement: the genuine and this super clone are both manual-wound with a red-tipped central seconds hand, so any “automatic” rotor or a missing seconds hand marks a lower-grade fake.

Is the RM 35-01 White Ceramic Blue Strap manual or automatic?

The RM 35-01 White Ceramic Blue Strap is manual winding, driven by the hand-wound clone Cal. RMUL3 with hours, minutes and central seconds — only the RM 35-02 and 35-03 Nadal models are automatic.

What is the difference between the RM 35-01 White Ceramic Blue Strap and the RM 35-02?

The main difference is winding: the RM 35-01 White Ceramic Blue Strap is hand-wound, while the RM 35-02 is automatic with a rotor, so the 35-01 keeps a slightly cleaner skeleton dial and asks for a daily wind.
