Anant Ambani, the youngest son of Mukesh and Nita Ambani, is known for his exquisite collection of luxury watches, which recently grabbed the attention of the internet with another rare watch.
As a passionate horologist, he is often seen wearing timepieces from prestigious brands such as Richard Mille, Patek Philippe, and Audemars Piguet.
Recently, during an outing with his wife, Radhika Merchant, Anant sported an unusual piece — the Richard Mille RM 52-04 “Skull” Blue Sapphire, one of the world’s rarest watches.
The RM 52-04 “Skull” Blue Sapphire, part of Richard Mille’s exclusive collection, is considered one of the rarest timepieces in the world.
According to The Indian Horology Instagram page, the watch is only available to Richard Mille’s most high-end clients. With only three pieces ever produced, the RM 52-04 is a highly sought after collector’s item.
Luxury watch store, Vintage Grail called it a rare sight, adding, “You’ll be lucky to have seen it in your lifetime.”
Crafted from a single piece of sapphire, the RM 52-04 features a pirate skull and crossbones in a tonneau-shaped case. The skull back is part of the main bridge of the movement, which is visible through the sapphire caseback. Four additional bridges, shaped like pirate flag bones, connect the movement to the case, adding to the watch’s unique design.
This extraordinary watch is priced at USD 2.625 million (approximately PKR 720.91 million), highlighting Richard Mille’s reputation for creating exclusive and expensive timepieces.
Richard Mille is a Swiss brand known for its avant-garde designs and exclusivity, which has become a status symbol among the wealthy and influential.
