Watch Paparazzi

Artist Cyril Kongo spotted wearing Richard Mille

The fusion of graffiti and high-end luxury watchmaking may seem like an unlikely combination, but that is not the case for French painter and graffiti artist Cyril Kongo. Recently, Kongo collaborated with Richard Mille to create an extraordinary timepiece, the RM 68-01. This limited edition watch boasts a carbon TPT and black ceramic case with a wonderfully colourful dial, a creation by the hand of the artist himself.

The skill required to create such a unique and breathtaking watch is mind-blowing. One cannot just pick up a can of spray paint and blast its content all over a mechanical movement. To produce this unique piece, countless hours of practice and specialty tools were needed. The Richard Mille RM 68-01 required over a year of development to create the special tools and experiments necessary to bring it to life.

The RM 68-01 is a masterpiece that showcases the collaboration of two very different worlds. With only 30 pieces produced, this limited edition watch is one of the most exclusive timepieces in the market. Its retail price of 685,000.00 USD attests to the rare and extraordinary craftsmanship that has gone into its creation.

For those who appreciate exquisite craftsmanship, the RM 68-01 is a must-have. It is a statement piece that embodies the passion and creativity of both Cyril Kongo and Richard Mille. The fusion of art and watchmaking has never been more eloquently and harmoniously demonstrated.
