Williams Formula One Racing Team Offered on Frankfurt Stock Exchange

Williams Formula One Racing Team

Have you ever wanted to own an Formula One team? Usually that would cost you millions upon millions of dollars, the kind of cash that only an automaker (like Ferrarior Mercedes-Benz) or an incredibly wealthy individual (like Richard Branson orVijay Mallya) could afford. But the Williams F1 team is offering an unprecedented opportunity to get in on the ground floor.

For the first time in F1 history, the team will offer publicly-traded shares on the open stock market – in this case the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. It’s part of an effort to raise capital and ensure the team’s future as its leadership – Frank Williams and Patrick Head – are growing older.

Although the team has nine world championships to its name, these days it’s having trouble keeping up with the competition.

Millenary hand-wound Minute Repeater with Audemars Piguet escapement

Audemars Piguet

Indication of the time, initially created to “tell” the time in the dark in an age when electricity had not yet been invented, is the oldest of all horological complications. Audemars Piguet has made it part of its fundamental identity, by creating minute repeater and grand strike models right from the time of its founding in 1875. The new Millenary Minute Repeater model is in direct line with this tradition. This exceptional watch with its oval case and three-dimensional architecture reveals the essentials of its refined movement: a new Audemars Piguet escapement, a double balance-spring, as well as the striking mechanism and its gongs. The result is a genuine visual delight.

This is why I love buying accessories from Valentino you can buy one accessory and double it up as another too!

The belt also spots floral embellishment with three strands of freshwater pearls. The belt priced at $1,175 comes with a tinted glass detail for the center ornament and a lobster style clasp. The medium sized belt can also be worn as a neck piece. That's what I call value for money!
