Throughout history skull has manifested itself in iconic concepts across myriad fields. None more so than the legendary Richard Mille 052 Tourbillon Skull and Satryna Tequila.

Richard Mille 052 Tourbillon Skull is one of the most outlandish timepieces. The skull isn’t just a there for a decorative purpose nut its actually the heart of the technically impressive watch. Made of grade 5 titanium, the front section of the skull includes the watch’s skeletonized baseplate and bridge, while the back makes up the movement’s center bridge.

This limited-edition exquisite timepiece carried a price tag of $500,000 when it was originally released in 2012.

“This new caliber represents the fullest expression of liberty and nonconformity and as such, very much typifies the philosophy of the brand,” the Richard Mille website states. “Extreme technique, high performance, the highest level of aesthetic and hand-finishing: the RM 052 Skull is true Haute Horlogerie.”

We like to think that luxury goes hand in hand. It‘s time to upgrade!
