MV
Agusta motorcycles have a long tradition with Grand Prix Racing. Several world championships
have created a myth around these fast two wheel machines created by Count
Domenico Agusta in 1945 as one of the branches
of the Agusta aircraft company in Cascina Costa, Italy
Many times we hear mechanics saying "it
runs like a Swiss watch" referring
to the MV Agusta engine presision. And now as part of its 75th anniversary MV celebrations
there is a special watch to match. RO-NI
is one of Switzerland’s most eclectic and exclusive watchmakers and is building
a master piece. RO-NI will be handcrafting a new, automatic model inspired by
the motorcycle industry’s genius in design, precision engineering and advanced
materials. The watch, named RMV, will be produced in a limited edition of 75
units. The history of RO-NI is intimately tied to that of motorsport racing,
and this collaboration with MV Agusta is a true homecoming for the brand from
Engadine. The materials used in the RMV are the same as those employed in the
creation of MV Agusta’s pieces of motorcycle art: best-grade titanium, 7075
aluminium alloy, steel, carbon fibre but also leather, Alcantara and sapphire.
The passion and the mastery in creating these unique pieces are another common
trait.
Timur
Sardarov, CEO of MV Agusta Motor S.p.A., said: “This extraordinary
collaboration with RO-NI is a further important step in the execution of our
strategy to develop outstanding partnerships. The aim is to offer MV
Agusta branded products of unrivalled quality and international prestige. The
RMV may not be for all, as it possibly represents the ultimate luxury in terms
of watches, but it perfectly interprets our spirit of excellence and perfection
expressed through craftsmanship, beauty and unequalled performance. The lucky
few who will own it will possess a piece of our history and of our soul.
Forever.”
Nicola
Rosa, Founder of RO-NI Watches, said: “This partnership fills us with pride and
gives us an opportunity to celebrate a brand that has always been a symbol of
success in the art of manufacture. Our technological and artistic DNA naturally
drew us towards this ideal alliance. Together we are harnessing time, but our
passion always runs free.”
The
RMV watch will be produced on order and made entirely by hand. It will be
numbered and accompanied by an official certificate. To find out more about the
