According to Luxury Launches, while Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos opts for a modest watch worth around $8,000, his glamorous wife, Lauren Sanchez, turns heads with a stunning Richard Mille RM07 “Intergalactic Dark Night” valued at $290,000, adorned with sparkling diamonds.

For Lauren Sanchez, style is as inseparable as billions are to Bezos. And if that means strolling along the rocky coast of Ibiza in sky-high heels, so be it.
Known for her dedication to fashion, the helicopter pilot took her look to another level with an accessory that outshone every other detail of her outfit — even the heels: the sophisticated RM07 “Intergalactic Dark Night.”
A watch that matches her fascination with space
A few months ago, Lauren Sanchez, the former news anchor, took part in an exclusive all-women space flight, wrote the children’s book *A Fly Who Flew to Space*, and has always shown interest in the universe. According to the *Daily Mail*, the watch was a gift from Bezos, who never misses an opportunity to celebrate his wife’s passions.
The Intergalactic Dark Night is instantly recognizable thanks to Richard Mille’s signature tonneau shape, crafted in Carbon TPT with 5N red gold accents. It is water-resistant up to 50 meters, which would theoretically allow Lauren Sanchez to dive into Ibiza’s crystal-clear waters straight from the Koru — the $500 million yacht where the couple spent their honeymoon after their Venice wedding. Of course, given that its Carbon TPT case is encrusted with diamonds, it’s hard to imagine she actually would.
The complexity behind the luxury
Setting diamonds into Carbon TPT is a technical challenge. Unlike the traditional claw method, the rigid material must be precisely machined using diamond-tipped drills. Only then are the gems secured with gold prongs, carefully inserted into hand-drilled settings. Some of these 5N red gold prongs are purely decorative, adding extra sparkle and enhancing the galactic aesthetic of the piece.
More than just a timepiece
While it’s not a watch meant solely for telling time, the model features red gold hands at the center of the dial, indicating hours and minutes. During her outing, Lauren Sanchez also flaunted another luxury item: the $7,300 Mini Lady Dior Bag, crafted in Latte calfskin embroidered with multicolored beads and rhinestones in the iconic Cannage pattern. A piece of discreet elegance that doesn’t steal the spotlight from the Richard Mille, but complements it perfectly.
Her love for space reflected in fashion
In recent months, Lauren Sanchez has incorporated cosmic references into her style, from astronaut-shaped Judith Leiber handbags to a “spaceship” from the same brand, gifted by the Kardashians. Meanwhile, Bezos — the fourth richest man in the world, with an estimated net worth of $236 billion — prefers understated choices. He often wears a Ulysse Nardin Dual Time worth nearly $7,700 and frequently adopts a casual style with cord bracelets costing less than $200.
The contrast is clear — just like the waters the Koru sails — that when it comes to fashion, Lauren Sanchez wears the crown.
