Richard Mille sponsors many high-profile athletes around the world. They have also taken a keen interest in the world of Formula One by sponsoring the McLaren and Ferrari F1 teams. This has meant that F1 drivers such as Charles Leclerc, Lando Norris, and Daniel Ricciardo have been spotted wearing their exuberant watches on their wrists.

The brand also has a range of watches custom-made for Charles Leclerc. But the thieves stole his watch in Italy a month ago which left him heartbroken. Now, the Monegasque driver has been spotted wearing a different watch from Richard Mille.

The RM 035 is a custom-made and rare watch that was crafted in collaboration with Tennis GOAT Rafael Nadal. The 21-time Grand Slam Champion is also a proud ambassador of Richard Mille watches and wears them every time he heads to a tennis court.

Leclerc wore this watch at his home Grand Prix (Monaco). It is a fourth and final collaboration with Nadal of the RM 035 collection.
