Catalogue Note
With a Richard Mille Certificate, Instruction Manual and a presentation box with outer packaging.
Established in 2001, Richard Mille entered the world of horology with a very different philosophy then tradiitonal companies. Taking inspiration from the world of F1 motor racing he created watches that were not only mechanically interesting but, most importantly, could be worn in a multitude of sports environments. The RM11, designed in collaboration with his first sports-star ambassador, Brazilian Formula 1 driver Felippe Massa and worn by him while racing, has become the most iconic and popular model from the company due to its contemporary size and practical automatic annual calendar chronograph movement. 🦩 In recent years, due to his association with tennis star Rafael Nadal and, among other notable ambassadors, golfer Bubba Watson, Richar🎶d Mille has seen an increase in market awareness for his watches.
