Richard Mille

Up for grabs this time: three Richard Mille Ipods: a definite 'must' for any Richard Mille enthusiast! The Ipod has 8 gigs of memory! (Ipod is a registered trademark of Apple; the Ipod is under warranty from Apple). For this, you should be at one with your favourite search engine! Question: Which 'Head(s) of State (however defined: President, Prime Minister, Royal) owns and wears a Richard Mille watch?' (To win, you must post a photo of the said Head of State wearing the RM and the RM must be clearly visible). Obviously, if one person posts, the next two to copy and post thereafter will also win (sorry - it is the nature of the web). I already possess a photo with at least one Head of State wearing a RM. If this one proves to be a little too difficult, then Ill post another tie-break question at some point in the future. Good luck to everyone and thanks for taking part. Andrew H

I've been fumbling around on Google for about an hour and can't come up with anything.  I have a few ideas of who it could possibly be, but finding proof and a picture is no easy task!    

I believe the answer to this question is HRH Sultan Mizan Zain al Abaidin of Malaysia as seen at the Perini Navi Cup with Richard Mille himself and Dominique Guenat.

he had on was a de Witt - I know as I took the picture and was next to his Highness during the day. I noted it in my Perini Navi report in response to a question from Allen:

At this time, I still do not know whether or not his Highness owns a Richard Mille. Perhaps there are other Royal houses worth investigating? :)

Good luck to you all

PS Happy New Year!

Looks to me like Stewella may have beaten you to it....

perhaps a 4th IPOD might be necessary for the tie

between SteveH and Stewella's  2:08pm post cause it's only a difference of couple seconds

Andrew did a report not too long ago:

I'm the only one with the correct spelling, so who knows, maybe Andrew will only accept winners w/ correct spelling :P

The HRH Sultan Mizan Zain al Abidin of Malaysia

I remembered that pic from here but don't know if that qualifies as the RM being "clearly visible".   

Drum roll please.

If it's not one of his RM-0xx models, then it could be the Richard Mille Le Mans Classic made in 2002 which do not look like his current RM-0xx models.

After looking more closely at the picture, if Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin is the correct answer, the watch has to be the Le Mans Classic made in 2002 cause seems the watch has lugs for the strap. The watch is definitely clearly "visible" cause u see the watch on his wrist; however, it's not clearly "distinguishable" cause it's not the normal RM-0xx model.

There's a chance this could be correct because this is the last question and supposed to be the most difficult of the 3, and hardly anyone knows about the Richard Mille Le Mans watch.

Shrug who knows. I'm waiting to see if anyone else comes up with anything interesting cause I've searched for hours and can't find anything else.

Sultan Mizan Zainal Abidin, but with a better picture?  I know this photo might just be for the event and may not truly indicate that he actually owns and wears a RM, but I thought it was a better shot of the watch.  We'll see if it floats (no pun intended) :)

I'll try again...

will try again...

I agree, this is a better picture (and actually an RM).
