High Performance: Richard Mille and McLaren
When, after a quarter-century, McLaren Cars became McLaren Automotive in 2010, the world did not have long to wait before the full power of Ron Dennis’s new division was unleashed. Now incorporated under the McLaren Technology Group umbrella (since June 2017 sans Dennis), the past seven years have seen the company and its cars go stratospheric. After overcoming early problems, the same period saw the company deliver some of the most awe-inspiring supercars of a generation.
Since the debut of its first Formula 1 car, the Robin Herd-designed M2B, at the 1966 Monaco Grand Prix, the name McLaren has struck fear and envy in the hearts of all competitors in the world of motorsport. In 1981, McLaren’s designer John Barnard was the first to use a carbon-fibre monocoque in a racing car, with the MP4/1, which introduced new standards of lightness and rigidity into motor racing.
Time is now for Mille and McLaren
Today, at the 88th edition of the world-renowned Geneva International Motor Show, McLaren Automotive and Richard Mille launched their first collaborative timepiece: the RM 11-03 McLaren Automatic Flyback Chronograph, a limited-edition of 500 pieces priced at CHF 180,000 plus tax.

McLaren clients will be able to view the timepiece on the McLaren stand for the duration of the 88th Geneva International Motor Show.
