RM 011 Felipe Massa Flyback Chronograph is a luxury watch by Richard Mille.

This 2007 launched, particularly large-sized chronograph in honor of Ferrari driver Felipe Massa is completely devoted to the different ways of measuring time. The racy, technically-futuristic watch not only has an additional flyback function, but also an annual calendar. It has, like the automatic model RM 016, a rotor with adjustable geometry. In this way, depending on whether the wearer of the watch is more of an activity-friendly or quiet type, the torque can be individually adapted to the lifestyle. To support a uniform effect on the oscillating system the movement, in spite of the automatic winding, is equipped with a double barrel.

The date is highlighted by a red-shaded frame. The month can be seen between four and five o'clock. In the manufacturing of this watch an unusual combination of materials such as titanium, cobalt, ceramic, and white gold is used.
