With watches as technically and aesthetically groundbreaking as those made by Richard Mille, extremely limited editions are an inevitability. That makes a trusted supplier of pre-owned Richard Mille watches a must-visit resource for fans of the boundary-pushing Swiss luxury watch brand, who are sure to be beating a path to the newly opened Value of Time boutique in Five Pacific Place.
Staffed by Richard Mille-trained experts and kitted out with a full suite of advanced horological machinery, Value of Time is the only official channel in Asia for the brand’s second-hand watches. This is its second outlet, following one that opened in Singapore in 2020, and it provides discerning watch lovers with a sophisticated yet convivial space, tastefully furnished and decorated with art pieces. The venue also showcases the launch of the Tourbillon Room, which promises the highest possible levels of service, akin to those available at Richard Mille’s Swiss manufacture itself.
Then there’s the slinkily seductive RM 026 Tourbillon Serpent, a limited edition of 15 with each featuring two of the reptiles snaking their way across the movement, picked out in ruby sapphires, alongside a baguette diamond-set bezel. Or check out the sky-high charms of the RM 62-01 Manual Winding Tourbillon Vibrating Alarm Airbus Corporate Jets, one of just 30 pieces that show off an innovative alarm based on a vibrating signal produced by the rotation of an oscillating weight.
Thanks to the care that goes into Richard Mille’s pre-owned programme, every watch sold by Value of Time is meticulously evaluated, authenticated and restored by a team of in-house watchmakers, all of whom have been trained directly by Richard Mille, at its manufacture in Les Breuleux. Buyers are therefore guaranteed peace of mind: all watches bought at Value of Time come with a 24-month warranty, a service booklet, and a new strap and presentation box.
