I hope your week is starting off well. I am sharing with you, without embargo, some absolutely stunning images of Elon Musk’s mother, Maye Musk, who chose to wear the Vanguart tourbillon for a fashion shoot conducted two weeks ago. This marks the first time she has selected a Swiss high-end watch brand and the first time she has worn a tourbillon watch. The attached photos are unrestricted, with no embargo. They are available for publication or a fashion feature without any usage limitations.
Founded in 2017 by CEO, Axel Leuenberger, Chairman, Mehmet Koruturk, Chief Technical Officer, Jeremy Freléchox, and Creative Director, Thierry Fischer. The Vanguart teams combined collective and broad expertise has sparked a remarkable inception for the brand, showcased by the captivating debut of the Vanguart Blackhole in 2021 and the launch of the Vanguart Orb in 2024.
