Sure! Guenat SA Montres Valgine was a high-end maker of luxury watches founded by Dominique Guenat. They produced their own brand as well as design and manufacture watches for other houses (including the iconic “Luminor” and “Mare Nostrum” for Panerei). In 1999, Dominique Guenat teamed up with Richard Mille to launch their project for a new watch brand. “Today Valgine is no longer making their own branded watches. But every Richard Mille watch has a prominently placed distinctive Valgine “V” on the watch.”

More details about the history of the brand here (translated from French).

Far and wide I will find 'em and I ride 'em
Bricks and mortar get my licks just for kicks
AD or authorized I don't analyze
Retail, wholesale never fail
Online or offline, I find I don't redefine
Too big to fail or yard sale they all hale
Run or hide just for fun deals I find
