RM 55 Tonneau - Steel Tonneau Automatic, 42x55mm, 5 ATM, 5 Colour Options, 94g

The Daniel Gorman RM 55 Tonneau is the five-colour-option steel tonneau automatic in the RM series - the same 42x55mm 316L stainless steel case, Japanese automatic movement, Hardlex crystal, 5 ATM / 50M, and silicone strap as the RM 35 Rafa, with five dial and finish variants: Black, Silver Black, Blue, White, and Rose Black. At 94g it is 5g lighter than the RM 35 Rafa at 99g - a modest but perceptible difference across the same dimensions. The RM 55 Tonneau is the broadest colour range in the RM steel series, adding Blue and Silver Black as variants not found in the Rafa range.

Blue Tonneau

Blue is the RM 55 Tonneau's most distinctive colour offering relative to the broader RM steel range - it is not offered in the RM 35 Rafa (steel) and creates an immediately distinctive presentation. Blue tonneau automatics are uncommon; the combination of the 42x55mm case geometry and the blue dial treatment reads as both dynamic and considered. Under incandescent light the blue deepens; in daylight it is crisp and graphic against the steel case.

Silver Black

Silver Black is a two-tone specification: silver case treatment combined with a black dial. The high contrast between the light case and dark dial is the defining characteristic - the hands and any dial markings are maximally legible against the black dial, while the silver case provides a neutral surrounding metal. Silver Black is the most conventionally sport-watch-adjacent colour combination in the RM 55 range.

Black, White, Rose Black

Black: the most intense and focused tonneau variant - the near-monochromatic dark presentation. White: highest contrast within the light-tone range, graphic and clean. Rose Black: warm-tone case against dark dial, the most distinctively warm variant. These three appear in both the RM 35 Rafa and RM 55 Tonneau ranges; the key differences between models when choosing the same colour are weight (94g vs 99g) and the additional Blue and Silver Black options available only in the RM 55.

94g vs 99g

The RM 55 Tonneau weighs 94g; the RM 35 Rafa weighs 99g. At the same 42x55mm case dimensions and 15mm profile, the 5g difference comes from internal construction differences. Over a full day of wear a 5g difference on a silicone strap is perceptible at the wrist level without being dramatic - the RM 55 is the marginally lighter of the two otherwise equivalent designs.

Five Colours for One Tonneau

The RM 55 Tonneau offers the widest colour range in the Daniel Gorman RM steel automatic series at Wclocks. Black, Silver Black, Blue, White, and Rose Black cover the full spectrum from the most assertive (Black) through the most distinctive (Blue, Rose Black) to the most graphic (White) and the most contrast-focused (Silver Black). Choosing between the RM 55 Tonneau and the RM 35 Rafa for the shared variants (Black, White, Rose Black) comes down to weight (94g vs 99g) and the additional colour options: the RM 55 adds Blue and Silver Black that are not available in the Rafa; the Rafa adds Silver that is not available in the RM 55. For someone who wants Blue, the RM 55 Tonneau is the only option in the RM steel range. For someone who wants Silver, the Rafa is the only option. For Black, White, and Rose Black, the weight comparison (94g vs 99g) is the deciding factor - 5g across the same case dimensions and identical specifications.

Available in Black, Silver Black, Blue, White, Rose Black. Backed by Wclocks 1-year warranty.

Wear It For

The RM 55 Tonneau in five colours covers active daily wear, sport, and bold casual occasions.

Blue for Colour Statement

Blue is the exclusive colour option in the RM 55 Tonneau steel range - not available in any other RM steel automatic at Wclocks. For the buyer who specifically wants a blue-dial tonneau automatic, the RM 55 Tonneau is the direct choice. Blue reads well in daylight outdoor contexts and in navy or blue wardrobe pairings.

Active Sport Daily

5 ATM / 50M and silicone strap make the RM 55 Tonneau appropriate for active daily wear including swimming. All five colour variants on the same 25mm silicone strap with buckle clasp. Black is the most versatile for sport contexts; Blue adds visual identity during active wear.

Silver Black for Sport Contrast

Silver Black is the highest-contrast pairing in the RM 55 range - light case, dark dial, maximum legibility. For sport and active contexts where quick time reading matters, Silver Black provides the clearest hands-against-dial contrast of the five variants.

Gift with Maximum Choice

Five colour variants means the RM 55 Tonneau accommodates a wider range of recipient tastes than the four-variant Rafa. As a gift where the colour choice matters - where the recipient has a specific preference - the RM 55 adds Blue and Silver Black as options that the Rafa does not offer.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the RM 55 Tonneau differ from the RM 35 Rafa?
Both are 42x55mm 316L stainless steel tonneau automatics with Japanese movement, Hardlex crystal, 5 ATM / 50M, silicone strap, and numberless dials. Key differences: weight (RM 55 Tonneau: 94g; RM 35 Rafa: 99g); colour variants (RM 55 Tonneau: Black, Silver Black, Blue, White, Rose Black; RM 35 Rafa: Rose Black, Silver, White, Black). The RM 55 Tonneau adds Blue and Silver Black; the Rafa adds Silver. For the shared colours (Black, White, Rose Black), the RM 55 is 5g lighter.
Is Blue only available in the RM 55 Tonneau?
In the RM steel automatic range at Wclocks, yes - Blue as a colour variant is available in the RM 55 Tonneau and in the RM Space Edition (which has a different, lower water resistance at 3 ATM / 30M). In the 5 ATM steel tonneau segment, the RM 55 Tonneau is the only model with a Blue variant. If a blue-dial tonneau automatic at 5 ATM is the specific requirement, the RM 55 Tonneau is the choice.
What does Silver Black mean?
Silver Black refers to the colour treatment of the case and dial: silver-tone case (brushed or polished steel presenting as silver) combined with a black dial. The high contrast between the light metal case and dark dial creates maximum visual separation between the case and the dial surface, and maximum legibility for hands against the dark background. It is a two-tone specification combining two of the most common watch colour elements in a deliberately contrasted pairing.
What is the water resistance?
5 ATM / 50M - suitable for swimming, surface water activity, and all active daily wear. This is higher than the RM Space Edition's 3 ATM / 30M. For an active-wear tonneau automatic, 5 ATM is the appropriate specification.
Is the numberless dial easy to read?
Yes, with a short adjustment period. At 42x55mm the case is large enough that hand position against 12 o'clock orientation is immediately visible. Numberless dials are a common feature across the Daniel Gorman RM range - after a few days of wearing the time is read intuitively from hand position without requiring index markers at each hour.
Is this related to Richard Mille?
No. This is a Daniel Gorman designed watch. The RM naming is a style reference only. This watch is not made by, affiliated with, or endorsed by Richard Mille in any way.
Does the automatic movement need winding?
No manual winding required under normal daily wear - the bidirectional rotor self-winds from wrist movement. If the watch stops from inactivity it needs crown winding or active wearing to restart. No battery is used.
