NEED FOR SPEED
A first in its 17-year history, Richard Mille sponsored the 16th Rallye des Princesses event, fusing together the world of automobile and haute horlogerie. One of the most prominent women’s automobile events, the Rallye des Princesses is a rally on open roads. “Women have always been interested in watchmaking, but in the last 10 years, women have shown themselves to be increasingly attracted to mechanical timepieces,” explains Richard Mille. “It has been up to the watchmaker to adapt.” Quite evidently so, with the brand’s latest RM07-01 and RM 037, and most recently, the RM 19-01 Natalie Portman watch.
