Tennis players are not just watch testimonials, but often have a private passion for watches – and even invest in them.
Richard Mille
Paris, France
Since its foundation in 2001 by Richard Mille in Les Breuleux, the independent luxury brand has quickly become synonymous with technical precision and avant-garde design. Mille sought to create extremely robust, lightweight and innovative watches – a philosophy closely linked to sport and extreme conditions. The brand combines advanced materials such as titanium, carbon and LITAL alloys with skeletonised movements, which are often developed for specific sports such as motorsport, tennis and golf. Iconic models include the RM 011 with a flyback chronograph and annual calendar; the RM 27-03, created for tennis legend Rafael Nadal; and the ultra-light RM 50-03 tourbillon chronograph.
