Richard Mille Opens New Factory in the Swiss Jura
Richard Mille has become the latest luxury watch manufacturer to take a decisive step toward becoming a full-fledged manufacture, announcing the opening of its new case and component factory in Les Breuleux in the Swiss Jura.The new facility, called Proart, is an ultra-contemporary 3,000 square-meter (32,000-square-foot) building designed by the Chavanne architectural firm.

Speedmaster Purchase.

Last week i was able to purchase a very nice Speedmaster Reduced automatic for $950 (good price i think ) and now i have the Speedy bug again.

Please send me links if you like as i am ready to buy now and thanks in advanc
