Watches have long been associated with sport, and these days many of the world’s top sportsmen and women endorse well-known brands. Some more famous and celebrated examples can be found coming from the precision brand Richard Mille. This top-end maker of exquisite watches has models endorsed by the Ferrari racing driver Felipe Massa and tennis legend Rafael Nadal among others. These are handmade in very small production runs, and cost anywhere up to $100,000! To own one of these you would have to be very rich, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have a watch from one of the brands endorsed by your hero!
