BYOW (Build-Your-Own-Watch) - The Revolo Concept, An Affordable Way To Design A Unique Watch - Monochrome Watches
Admit it, most of us (if not ALL of us) have dreamt about it at one point; building your own watch. Whether it's our very own watch brand, or a Piece Unique. Normally, if you call it normal, this will cost you thousands if not hundreds of thousands, especially when you want to turn your concept into an actual brand. There is a solution though, and it goes by the name of Revolo. We take a look at what it is, and what it can do for you through our very own Monochrome Piece Unique.The Build-your-own-Watch concept isn't new, nor is it as unique as you might think (but it all depends on the execution of said concept, whether or not you should consider it!) Revolo understand this pretty well and offer a huge range of options to choose from, all available in a simple yet effective online configurator.

A mechanical watch to be worn while practicing golf? Isn’t that?something that everybody knows to be dangerous? Well, if you’re talking about usual mechanical watches, this statement is totally true. Don’t wear an automatic watch while playing golf! However, when it comes to Richard Mille, we’re not in front of usual timepieces… Not at all! As we’ve seen with Rafael Nadal or Bubba Watson, the watches of the brand can resist to almost everything, even Bubba’s mighty drive. The watch that is dedicated to him comes in a new iteration: here is the?Richard Mille RM 055 Bubba Watson All Grey Boutique Edition.In 2014, Rafeal Nadal won Roland Garros with a ultra-light tourbillon on the wrist (the Richard Mille RM 27-01 to be precise, with its movement?weighing?3.5 grams).
