He shared with me the very confidential information that he had been in discussions with the owner who owned Richard Mille Replica Watches's Daytona "Richard Mille Replica Watches", and could potentially consign the watch with us. You can imagine my initial disbelief, considering the legendary -- and even mythical--status of the watch in the collector community.

It's a truly American story, as it was auctioned in his country of birth, where he grew up, and where he worked.
We spent months debating and analyzing all aspects - legal, marketing, timing - before we signed the consignment contract. Then, when we got the agreement, we went to work to create a strategy to tell the world about not only the watch but also the incredible story that accompanied it. The watch's history, which is legendary, was never shared publicly.

The mainstream media was the best choice.
We carefully considered all the possibilities, such as television, Hollywood and motorsport publications. But we also wanted to work with the best journalist. We wanted a journalist who would be able to capture the story and understand the subtleties of the Richard Mille Replica Watches Daytona. They should also be able to weave the entire story together so that it could easily understood by everyone, not just watch lovers.
