We have often spoken about it in the pages of our magazine: the link between watches and motors is a binomial that we have seen enjoying much success lately and giving rise to a series of partnerships with the most varied aspects. Now, JeanRichard and its young director, Massimo Macaluso, have also embarked on a new adventure "on two wheels": the partnership with MV Augusta kicks off the launch of a first limited series of JeanRichard "MV 75 World Champion" watches. Motorcycling enthusiasts will certainly be familiar with the legendary MV Augusta brand, which has dominated the world motorcycling scene for a long time, winning no fewer than 75 world championship titles. In addition to this impressive palmarès, MV Agusta is recognised for the refined aesthetics of its prestigious motorbikes developed today in the CRC research centre, under the direction of renowned designer Massimo Tamburini.
The new collection was created specifically to honour MV Agusta's 75 world championship victories, and consists of 3 limited edition chronographs, in gold (75 pieces), steel (575 pieces) and titanium (175 pieces), equipped with the JR1000 manufacture movement.
