Nelly Korda's Richard Mille Watch: The RM 07-04 Explained

Nelly Korda's watch is the Richard Mille RM 07-04 Automatic Winding Sport, the brand's first women's sports watch, launched in February 2023 and developed with six sportswomen, Korda among them. It is the watch she wore when she jumped into the pond after winning the Chevron Championship on April 21, 2024: a skeletonised automatic in a Quartz TPT or Carbon TPT case, about 30.5 mm wide, 36 g with its strap and water resistant to 50 m. This guide covers which version she wears, the specs, why it survived the jump and what it is worth. Bizak & Co. is a sourcing desk: every watch mentioned here is found to order, not held in stock.

What watch does Nelly Korda wear?

Nelly Korda wears the Richard Mille RM 07-04 Automatic Winding Sport. Richard Mille announced her as a partner in February 2019, after her Women's Australian Open win, although later coverage dates the relationship to 2017. The brand's page for her says she was among the sportswomen who tested the RM 07-04 in real conditions. She wore it at a Richard Mille boutique event in Singapore marking the model's launch, held during the Korda sisters' trip for the HSBC Women's World Championship in March 2023. She also wore it while winning the Chevron Championship in April 2024 and at the Solheim Cup in Virginia in September 2024. Golf Monthly reports that she changes straps and colours between events, so photographs do not always show the same look.

Richard Mille runs in the family. Her sister Jessica Korda wore an RM 07-01 Racing Red at the same Singapore event, a model covered in our Richard Mille RM 07-01 guide, and her brother Sebastian Korda is also a Richard Mille ambassador.

Which colour is Nelly Korda's RM 07-04?

Nelly Korda's RM 07-04 is the creamy-white Quartz TPT version. Richard Mille's own launch photographs, on its RM 07-04 and Nelly Korda pages, show her wearing that case with a berry-coloured strap. Dealers list that version under her name, and it is the one the 2024 Sports Illustrated and Golf Monthly coverage of her watch pointed to. Richard Mille's RM 07-04 page lists no colour sub-references; codes such as RM07-04NEL appear in dealer catalogues, so confirm the case colour from the watch itself rather than from the code. The Richard Mille RM 07-04 Automatic Winding Sport collection shows the versions we source to order; before you commit, we confirm the case colour of the specific watch we locate.

What are the RM 07-04's specs?

The RM 07-04 is a skeletonised automatic about 30.5 mm wide and 10.35 mm thick. It weighs 36 g with its strap and offers about 50 hours of power reserve, 50 m water resistance and 5,000 g shock resistance. A push-button at 4 o'clock selects winding, neutral or hand-setting, and a hand at 5 o'clock shows which function is active.

Why did Nelly Korda's watch survive the 2024 pond jump?

It survived because the RM 07-04 is rated water resistant to 50 m and shock resistant to 5,000 g, in a composite case built to be worn during sport. Korda won the Chevron Championship at The Club at Carlton Woods, near Houston, on Sunday, April 21, 2024, her fifth straight LPGA Tour win, and jumped into the pond with the watch on. Sports Illustrated pointed to its 50 m (165 ft) rating and reported Korda saying the watch is waterproof but the strap is not: "Not the strap, but it'll be fine." She made the jump again after winning the 2026 Chevron Championship at Memorial Park in Houston, this time into a makeshift pool.

How much is Nelly Korda's Richard Mille worth?

Richard Mille launched the RM 07-04 at a reported US retail price in the low six figures, the same for all six versions, and 2024 press reports put Korda's watch in the low-to-mid six figures, based on a dealer's asking price rather than a sale. Sports Illustrated in April 2024 and Golf Monthly in September 2024 each quoted a figure, and both linked to the same dealer listing for the creamy-white version. Those were 2024 asking prices, not sales, and asking prices move. Today's price depends on version, condition, papers and timing; the number that counts is the one confirmed on the watch we locate. For the wider brand, see our Richard Mille price guide.

Who else was the RM 07-04 developed with?

Richard Mille developed the RM 07-04 with six sportswomen: Korda, motorsport drivers Aurora Straus and Margot Laffite, heptathlete Nafi Thiam, high jumper Yuliya Levchenko (RM 07-04 listed under Levchenko's name) and skier Ester Ledecka, according to Golf Monthly. It was not made for Korda alone, as some 2024 coverage suggested. Watchonista reported that Amanda Mille grouped Korda with Straus and Laffite as athletes who wanted a more versatile watch, and the brand's RM 07-04 page now names five of the six, without Laffite. For another golfer's Richard Mille, see Bubba Watson's Richard Mille RM 055.

Does Nelly Korda still wear the RM 07-04?

Richard Mille still lists Korda as a partner, and its pages show her wearing the creamy-white version. She won the Chevron Championship in April 2026 and the U.S. Women's Open in June 2026; for any single event, photographs are the only reliable way to confirm which version she wore. The 2026 LPGA season closes with The ANNIKA at Pelican Golf Club in Belleair, Florida, on November 12–15, an event she has won three times, and the CME Group Tour Championship at Tiburón Golf Club in Naples on November 19–22.

What should you check before buying an RM 07-04?

• Version and colour. Richard Mille publishes no colour sub-reference, so confirm the case material and colour from photographs of the specific watch, not from an athlete's name in a listing.
• Measurements. The case should measure about 30.5 mm wide and 44.95 mm lug to lug; check any listing that states a different size.
• Function selector. The push-button at 4 o'clock should move through winding, neutral and hand-setting, with the hand at 5 o'clock following each step.
• Strap and closure. Check the integrated fabric strap and its hook-and-loop closure for wear, and ask which straps come with the watch.
• Papers and serial numbers. Match the case number to the warranty card, and ask for photographs of both.
• Authentication. Our authenticity page sets out how we verify a unit before it ships.
