When it comes to the world of watches, there’s luxurious, and then there’s downright divine.
From low-key releases for a select few, to spotlight-stealing crown jewels – you’ll find that the extravagant watches highlighted here aren’t just accessories, but otherworldly creations meant to take your outfit to the next level.
H. Moser & Cie.’s Streamliner Skeleton Rainbow
H. Moser & Cie. are back to unleash another colourful creation that’s sure to make even a rainbow blush.
Introducing the Streamliner Tourbillon Skeleton Rainbow!
Precious stones are not typically used by Moser in their watches. This new model, however, shows a conscious decision to highlight the movement’s beauty, balance, and even overall minimalism through the use of brilliance.
As a result, the watch successfully combines watchmaking skills with jewellery artistry.
Featuring steel or 5N red gold, this timepiece has 60 vividly-coloured baguette-cut sapphires. The stones are subtly positioned in the centre of the case in a dual gradient; one gradient mimics the rainbow’s colours, while the other highlights the Streamliner 40mm cushion-shaped case.
The fully-skeletonised HMC 814 movement, which is fully visible through the watch’s face, is also aesthetically enhanced by the gemstones.
The Streamliner Tourbillon Skeleton Rainbow is available for enquiries now. You can also reserve a unit for yourself for CHF159,000 (~RM814,703) at H. Moser & Cie.’s official website.
Richard Mille’s RM72-01 “Charles Leclerc” Edition
Charles Leclerc, a Ferrari F1 driver and long-time brand ambassador, helped Richard Mille discreetly unveil their newest limited-edition watch.
Inspired by the Monégasque driver’s signature colours and racing heritage, the brand’s automatic flyback chronograph has been boldly reinterpreted in the new RM72-01 “Charles Leclerc.”
Honouring the Monegasque flag, the watch is finished in white Quartz TPT with eye-catching red stripes. The red-and-white motif is maintained by a skeletonised dial that highlights chronograph counters with racing influences while removing hour numerals.
The date window is framed in red and white, and the black crown mimics the twisting motion of a high-torque Formula One tyre.
The watch, which is powered by the CRMC-1 calibre, has a 50-hour power reserve, a function selector, and a flyback chronograph with 30-minute and 24-hour counters.
With a platinum rotor and ceramic bearings for high-efficiency winding, it operates at 28,800 vph.
Although the release was just confirmed, Leclerc has been wearing the 38.4mm x 47.34mm watch for weeks. The RM72-01 “Charles Leclerc,” which is limited to just 150 pieces and costs US$330,000 (~RM1,407,777), is reportedly already being delivered to a few chosen clients. You can visit Richard Mille’s official website for more details.
