The Coolest Timepieces Of Only Watch 2021, Part II
In the previous eight editions of Only Watch, a total of 70 million euros was raised to support the fight against Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. This plays a vital role in finding a cure for this terrible disease. For watch brands, it is an opportunity to do good and showcase their abilities. This works two ways, as it results in truly unique watches that are so tempting that they will only raise more money for the cause. Yesterday we showed you already some of our favorites, and today we do that again, as also the following ones are too good to pass up:
The Coolest Timepieces Of Only Watch 2021, Part I
What started in 2005 has grown to become one of the most epic biennial events in the world of watchmaking. As an initiative of Luc Pettavino, leading watch brands create every two years a piece unique, which they donate to Only Watch to help the fight against Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. These watches are auctioned, offering collectors a unique opportunity to obtain a very rare timepiece while supporting this amazing cause. This year the 9th edition is taking place, and no less than 53 lots will be auctioned. These are some of our favorites:

Richard Mille Dives Into The Deep Blue With Arnaud Jerald
With Arnaud Jerald, Richard Mille is welcoming the youngest two-time world record holder in free diving to its family of ambassadors. While being only 25 years old, Jerald is one of the most promising talents in this sport. Diving without air, he reached an incredible depth of 112 meters last year in Greece. Freediving is as much about physical fitness as it is about mental attitude. You have to be very focused, yet at the same time become one with the ocean. It opens up a world few people get to experience fo freely and quietly. A wetsuit, a set of flippers, and a nose clip are all you need to free dive, but a watch can be an essential addition in terms of safety.
