Created in collaboration with South African sprinter Wayde van Niekerk, this Richard Mille RM 67-02 super clone — the van Niekerk edition — represents the ultra-thin side of the RM catalog. Van Niekerk, the 400m world-record holder, needed a watch that would stay flat under race conditions, and the RM 67-02 delivers that profile through a green/yellow Quartz TPT case paired with a skeletonised automatic movement built on an ultra-thin architecture. The full reference — Richard Mille RM 67-02, van Niekerk colourway, listed by some sellers as rm 067-02 or simply rm67 — measures just over 7 mm thick, which makes this Richard Mille RM 67 replica one of the slimmest watches the brand has produced and one of the lightest Richard Mille watches you can wear.

The Sprinter Edition and Its Flag Dial

That thinness fundamentally changes how the watch sits on the wrist compared to the brand’s thicker tonneau sport pieces. Where most RM sport models stack upward off the wrist, this replica rm-67 niekerk runs flush, which is exactly the point of an edition built for a man moving at 400m-race speed. Among the RM 67 super clone editions in our RM 67 replica collection, the van Niekerk flag dial is the one that reads as a national-colours story rather than a plain carbon weave: the skeletonised baseplate is painted with green, yellow and red flag accents. One detail siblings in this family do not share is that the green woven nylon strap is colour-matched to the dial’s green accents, not to the case tint.

Why the Flat Profile Matters at Speed

At just over 7 mm thick, the RM 67-02 slides under a shirt cuff without the pronounced wrist stack that most RM models create. The tonneau skeleton shape still reads as unmistakably RM, but the slim profile gives it a dress-watch quality rarely seen on a sport piece. The green/yellow Quartz TPT case keeps mass minimal, and the ultra-thin movement eliminates the vertical bulk that defines models like the RM 011 or RM 035. If you want the dedicated extra-flat automatic of the line instead, with a date aperture and a function selector, the RM 67-01 Titanium super clone is the dressier cousin — the practical RM 67-01 vs RM 67-02 choice comes down to whether you want a date or the lighter two-hand sprinter. A lighter, lower watch has less to swing under arm motion, which is the logic behind choosing this platform for a sprinter.

Clone Movement: CRMA7 and the Dual Disclosure

Inside sits a clone Cal. CRMA7, an automatic, skeletonised movement running at 28,800 vph (4 Hz) on 25 jewels. The genuine CRMA7 winds through a OneWay variable-geometry rotor rather than a micro-rotor, and this build mirrors that automatic layout. Power reserve on the clone is 48 hours, against roughly 50 hours on the genuine CRMA7 — a small, honest gap worth naming so you know what you are buying. Like the original, the RM 67-02 shows hours and minutes only: there is no seconds hand and no date window, which keeps the skeleton dial clean and the reading uncluttered. Water resistance stays at 30 m, matching the genuine piece. For where this slots against the rest of the line-up, see our guide to the best Richard Mille super clones.

A Green Strap Tuned to the Flag, Not the Case

Here is a choice that sets this edition apart from its carbon-cased siblings: the green woven nylon strap is matched to the green in the dial’s flag accents rather than to the green/yellow Quartz TPT shell, so the whole watch reads as one deliberate nod to van Niekerk’s national colours instead of a case-and-strap contrast. That single-palette approach pushes the RM 67-02 toward dress-watch territory. The complete package weighs roughly 32 g, so the elastic strap sits soft and flat against the wrist with none of the heft a metal bracelet adds, and paired with the sub-8 mm height the watch tucks under a cuff the way no tonneau sport RM usually can. As a Quartz TPT watch it also runs lighter and cooler on the skin than the carbon editions, while still holding the unmistakable RM barrel silhouette. Across the wider Richard Mille super clone catalogue, few editions pair case tint and strap this deliberately, which is part of why this van Niekerk reads as more than a decaled sport watch.

This vs Other Versions

Collectors familiar with the RM lineup recognise the RM 67-02 as an outlier — most RM pieces are thick, visually loud, and designed to sit on top of the wrist rather than flush against it, and the van Niekerk edition inverts that formula. The 67-02 exists in several athlete editions that share the same case dimensions and clone movement but differ in strap colour, dial accents and the athlete story. Compare this against the Barshim RM 67-02, which takes the same ultra-thin skeleton watch and dresses it in a high-jumper’s burgundy palette, or the Zverev RM 67-02 for a black-carbon Spain take. For anyone searching a flat RM for sale at the thinner end of the catalog, this replica rm-67 niekerk shows what the brand does when it strips away bulk and focuses on wearability rather than wrist presence.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does the van Niekerk RM 67-02 super clone cost, and is it good value?

Priced at $1,399, the van Niekerk sits among the more affordable ways into Richard Mille replica ownership despite its ultra-thin Quartz TPT build. Shoppers hunting the cheapest Richard Mille super clone usually land on a thicker carbon model, so this flat two-hand edition is the rare slim option at the price, and the value shows in the hand-painted flag baseplate and the ~32 g wrist feel rather than on the spec sheet.

How can you spot a fake van Niekerk RM 67-02?

The quickest tells on a fake Richard Mille RM 67 are a seconds hand or a date window — the genuine 67-02 has neither — plus a strap that is rubber instead of woven elastic. On this super clone the green/yellow Quartz TPT case, the two-hand skeleton layout and the green woven strap are reproduced closely, while the clone Cal. CRMA7 carries a 48-hour reserve against about 50 hours on the genuine calibre, so any rm 67-02 fake claiming a longer reserve or extra hands is giving itself away.

RM 67-01 vs RM 67-02 — which flat Richard Mille should you choose?

Choose the RM 67-02 for the lighter hours-and-minutes sprinter watch, and the RM 67-01 for the extra-flat automatic that adds a date aperture and a function selector. Both share the 38.7 x 47.52 mm tonneau footprint, so the RM 67-01 vs RM 67-02 decision really comes down to date-and-dressier versus lighter-and-simpler.

Does this RM 67-02 clone have a seconds hand or a date?

No — this is a two-hand watch, so the skeleton dial carries hours and minutes and nothing more, with no running seconds and no date disc. Van Niekerk’s edition follows the genuine RM 67-02 exactly on that point, which is why any 67-02 wearing a seconds hand or a date aperture is not reproducing the real layout.
