The Richard Mille Polo Players Win in Overtime, a New Watch is Born

The Richard Mille Polo Players prevailed over the Royal Barriere team earlier this week, eeking out a 15-14 victory in overtime. To celebrate the nail-biting victory Richard Mille has come up with a variation on his Flyback Chronographs called the RM 011 Polo de Deauville Flyback Chronograph.

Sporting a case of white gold, the limited edition run of just 20 examples come nestled inside a commemorative box numbered to correspond to its horological counterpart. An alternate strap also comes tucked away inside the box, in case the wearer prefers black alligator with red stitching over the default black rubber strap in white gold and titanium.

Mille’s iconic panoramic crystal offers a view of the myriad of complications within, while a second sapphire crystal on the reverse is emblazoned with the polo team’s logo. Conceived within the color palette of the game’s host, the Deauville International Polo Club, the limited run of pieces will be available at Richard Mille boutiques in Europe, Africa, Russia and the Middle East.
