Mille Miglia 2014 - Chopard
1 minute read
A timepiece which pays tribute to the historical cars taking part in the most renowned of the classic car races.

The Mille Miglia 2014 model is a chronograph featuring a design vividly reflecting the spirit of the legendary race after which it is named: it is also vintage, sophisticated, and distinctively Italian.

The Mille Miglia 2014 chronograph has a red tachometric scale and hands, that blend perfectly with the white dial and green minute circle, it flies the colours of the nation’s flag. The usual strap made in rubber with a 1960s Dunlop racing tyre-tread motif has been replaced by a version in overstitched Barenia calfskin reminiscent of the bonnet straps on the most venerable participants in the race. The red arrow-shaped Mille Miglia logo appears on the dial as well as on the sapphire crystal case-back.

The contemporary Mille Miglia 2014 watch is thus dominated by vintage detailing.The slender cursive dial fonts are inspired by the 1920s. The lugs holding the strap are soldered rather than screwed in. Radiating an undeniably masculine aura, this limited edition of 2014 pieces in steel and 250 pieces in rose gold all feature reasonable dimensions. At 42 mm in diameter and 12.30 mm thick, this is a watch that is discreet in both size and spirit.

The Mille Miglia 2014 is equipped with a self-winding chronograph movement. Chopard ensures its performances by submitting all its movements to the COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute) which guarantee their precision.
