I saw this in my feed this morning and thought I would share. I'll definitely have to do some more digging in the beautiful time pieces.

Enjoy the article

I find this one very interesting

 

Four of the five watches are really cool, but the Richard Mille does nothing for me.

 

Aesthetically, agree. But it does have some interesting engineering behind it.

 

I'd rather they add the Urwerk Atomic Clock and titanium watch combo than the Richard Mille. https://www.phillips.com/detail/urwerk/NY080119/8

 

Thanks for sharing. But, I agree with arkman and greyfox422 regarding the Richard Mille. Who are these people that like the look of Richard Mille watches and are willing to pay truckloads of money for them too?

 

I've seen the Marie Antionette one. It's a curious museum- mostly Islamic art, but with a impressive watch collection.

 

And no mention of what is generally considered the most valuable watch ever if it would ever be found and could come up for sale.

 

Evidence that wealth is very unevenly distributed in the world. How some have so much disposable money to put in a RM?

 

Definitely some cool watches, all very unique designs.

 

It probably resides in the Patek Philippe Museum....

 

They want Buzz’s missing Speedmaster? It’s generally acknowledged that the first watch on the moon would be the most expensive watch if it came to market. Alas we will never know because if it’s found NASA still owns it and would have the legal right to take ownership.

 

I simply don’t understand Richard Mille watches. To me they look like something you’d buy off street vendor’s blanket for 20 bucks.

 

Yes, that and they look like children's toys.

 

REEESHARD MEEEEL

 

Maybe they worked harder and made better choices??? Since we all have differing abilities, how can there be equal outcomes???

 

Such neat watches. I'd be afraid to ding it. Lol

 

I am sure Putin's wealth that enables him to afford Blancpain watches, only happened because he made 'better choices'

 

Stir all you'd like. I'm speaking about western civilization where people are free to make their own choices. Putin???? He's one person on a planet of billions. Some people are born with six fingers on each hand too.

 

This one is gorgeous but just can't accept the Hermes tag on a watch. Seeing a lot of non-watch luxury brands getting into this space.
