Rafael Nadal and his Richard Mille Watch

Greetings from Sportcamptravel LLC. We would like to congratulate Rafa Nadal on his 13th Roland Garros title. Rafael Nadal won his 20th Grand Slam title in the year 2020, and the Spaniard is now tied with Roger Federer for the most Grand Slam titles. We also would like to talk about his watch, which has been the subject of much discussion during Roland Garros. Fashion and luxury brands have always had a strong partnership with many top athletes and sport teams. FC Barcelona just signed an agreement with luxury clothing brand Thom Browne and according to Forbes, Roger Federer has an endorsement portfolio worth $100 million, including brands like Rolex, Mercedes Benz, and Uniqlo, making him one of the highest paid athletes in the world. So what makes the collaboration between Rafael Nadal and Richard Mille special?

In 2010, Richard Mille announced its partnership with tennis phenom Rafael Nadal, along with a groundbreaking new watch, the RM 027.  Richard Mille is one of the most expensive watch brands on the market, and the starting price is $80,000. During Roland Garros, Rafael Nadal was wearing one of the most expensive watches in the tournament and the most expensive in his tennis career. The RM 27-04 watch by the renowned watchmaking brand has a retail price of a cool $1.05 million. Richard Mille released the watch in September 2020 to mark the ten-year anniversary of its partnership with the tennis great. Only 50 of this limited edition have been produced worldwide.
