According to The Indian Horology Instagram page, this watch is available only to Richard Mille's most elite clients. With just three pieces ever made, the RM 52-04 is a highly sought-after item for collectors.

The luxury watch store, Vintage Grail, described it as a rare sight, adding, "You'd be lucky to have seen these in your lifetime."

Crafted from a single piece of sapphire, the RM 52-04 features a pirate skull and crossbones within a tonneau-shaped case. The skull’s back is part of the movement’s central bridge, visible through the sapphire caseback. Four additional bridges, shaped like bones from a pirate flag, attach the movement to the case, adding to the watch’s unique design.

This extraordinary timepiece is valued at an eye-watering USD 2.625 million (approximately PKR 720.91 million), underscoring Richard Mille's reputation for creating exclusive and costly watches.

Richard Mille is a Swiss brand renowned for its avant-garde designs and exclusivity, becoming a status symbol among the wealthy and influential.

Anant Ambani, who is married to Radhika Merchant, is the youngest son of Reliance Industries Chairman Mukesh Ambani. His siblings, Isha and Akash Ambani, are also prominent figures in the business world. The couple recently tied the knot on 12th July 2024.
