Luxury watch brand Richard Mille has released a new timepiece it made in conjunction with French street artist Cyril “Kongo” Phan. Each RM 68-01 Kongo Tourbillon features an individually hand-spraypainted watch face done by the artist himself, with TZP black ceramic for the bezel and caseback. Captured in sapphire with an anti-glare coating, it’ll be like wearing a one-of-a-kind display case on your wrist. List price for each Kongo is $685,000. For more information on the watch, click here. For more on the artist, read this piece. Check out some visuals of the artist and his studio—and, of course, the watch—below.
