They haven't even announced the price yet - but you know what - CAN'T AFFORD IT! Still bling though...]]>
MV Agusta watchLike most self-respecting motorcycle manufacturers, MV Agusta  has decided to launch a watch. Other manufacturers, including Ducati, Harley and BMW all have their own watches, usually produced by upmarket watchmakers.
MV Agusta’s watch is being produced by one of the most upscale manufacturers, Swiss (where else?) JEANRICHARD.

The “MV 75 World Champion” collection was specially developed in honor of MV Agusta’s 75 international competition victories. It is composed of three chronograph models in gold, steel and titanium. Limited editions of 75 in pink gold, 175 in titanium and 575 in steel will be produced.

The series number is engraved on the back of each watch, alongside the MV Agusta logo adorning the sapphire crystal that enables one to admire the exquisite finishing of the JEANRICHARD movement, decorated with the Côtes de Genève motif.

No prices published (but if you have to ask, you can’t afford it).

It’s called the Ecosse Titanium Series – so called because it sports the world’s first all-titanium frame. And from the 200-horsepower, 2150cc polished billet aluminum v-twin engine, to the MotoGP-spec Ohlins suspension, to the radially-mounted 6-piston billet ISR front brake calipers – with an individual brake pad for each of the 12 pistons – every detail screams “you can’t afford me!” At USD$275,000 it’s not cheap – but it does come with a free watch.

While the eye-watering power and lush handling of the Ecosse Titanium Series will stir the soul, the multi-adjustable riding position and gel seat ensure it’s still an absolute luxury experience for the extremities. The brainchild of Colorado native Donald Atchison, this bike has been sculpted from billet, titanium and carbon fiber to be simply the most lavish experience on two wheels, with everything in excess and no compromises to be seen.
