Many parallels can be found in the worlds of haute horlogerie and motorsports, but the friendship between Richard Mille and Jean Todt has resulted in some truly captivating timepieces.
TO SAY THAT RICHARD MILLE is an admirer of motorsports is like saying the Pope is a fan of God. His clique of ambassadors include Formula One stars such as Romain Grosjean and Felipe Massa, and the watchmaker recently created the RM 50-03 McLaren F1, the world’s lightest tourbillon split-seconds chronograph at less than 40g, in partnership with the McLaren team. Little surprise then, that one of Mille’s dearest friends is also a motor racing giant: Jean Todt.
The current president of the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) celebrates his 50th year in the world of motorsports and Mille is honouring that milestone with a trio of watches, each one bearing Todt’s name and favourite colours. “I love the watches designed by Richard. I love their lightness, their technicity and their exclusivity,” says Todt of the new models, which comprise the RM 11-03, RM 050 and RM 056 Jean Todt 50th Anniversary.
