new richard mille boutique at ion orchard....

FYI...

the new boutique will operate from 15 Nov 09........

level 3 unit 26 ion orchard.....

as for the look, all richard mille boutiques are somewhat similar.....

will there be boutique edition watches..???

maybe not as this is more of a relocation.... rather than setting foot in another country....

more reading.....

i saw the latest issue out at the news stand....

but i resisted buying cos sometimes i can get a free copy.... so i rather be patient and wait till i get it...

for this month, there's a special on JLC's new range of navy seals diving watches.....

and also a very in-depth and refreshing feature on richard mille (the person) and felipe massa..... which makes very good reading......

thank you..!!

welcome back.....!!

it surely must feel good to be back .....

so it's also my pleasure to say welcome back felipe..!!

and next year will be so tough with fernando alonso right beside him..... but looked at how he handled the pressure of racing alongside kimi raikkonen...... he's now true-blue multiple race winner himself....

notice the watch on his wrist? i wonder if this is the same richard mille rm011 he wore when he crashed at hungaroring.... if yes, isnt that a tough little beast of a watch as well haha....

the lucky 10.....

oh gosh....... it's another LE edition but ...... this time there's abit of difference in the execution cos hey hey there are only 10 pieces..!!!

i am quite sure at press time, all 10 are already accounted for...... so the rest of us can only admire the picture..... or go for the regular edition.......

indeed over the years there have been many LE for the rm011...... of course there are some winners, in particular the singapore gp edition and the chronopassion black edition etc

in comparison with the rest, the le mans edition looks abit muted ....... and so the regular edition remains the best bet at the most reasonable price.....

overheard....

overheard this afternoon........

this guy was telling the rest that he owns a rm012...and rm009..... and also the rm011 singapore gp edition...... and etc.....

hmmmm..... so shiok.....

haha..... some ppl just have the luck ...err i mean the money rather....

got me thinking: how long do i need to save up to buy a S$300,000 watch...????

sigh, it's too painful to even think about it.......

mille mille

if you visit here often, you'd know that i am a BIG richard mille fan......... and i always try to share the goodies with you guys.....

quite some time ago, i was at my regular AD and had the chance to try on a couple of classic pieces.....

one....... a richard mille rm010 in rose gold..........

for rm watches, rose gold is a good choice cos there's a alluring visual effect .... unlike titanium and white gold, rose gold is very obvious..... and has a warm tone that's very soothing..... 

i had a hard time trying to guess which piece was in titanium .... or white gold.... in the end, i got it all WRONG haha....

two........ a richard mille rm011 le mans LE in titanium.......

alas, trying is one thing......... able to afford is another............ 

pls pardon the blurry pics cos the camera-phone wasnt really that GOOD.....

bluessss....

between the standard edition, red, green and blue editions, i'll pick the red.... i.e. singapore gp edition.....

but i guess the blue is pretty nice as well.......... for the US of A....

no doubt it's a colour game.....

still very expensive for most ppl ..... except the rich 

a closer look at the rm011....
