I saw a picture of this watch with a white dial in the catalogue
and wanted to ask you what was the movement underneath. Glad it is a stunning Lemania 1874 refinished by Chopard. WOW!
Does the white dial comes with sunburst as well? Cause the picture looks like lacquer/ceramic effect.
I think Chopard should issue chronos like this with the LUC Chrono calibers.

Rare sight - Mille Miglia Vintage 161889-5002 with Lemania 1874
Last week, a piece arrived in Singapore. Seldom I see this piece of Mille Miglia Vintage in shops. Typically available in either Black or White dial in RG case (limited production of 250 pieces each). This piece is a new slate grey! Understand this watch ...
Looks good
Can't wait to see it in the flesh. No shots of the white dial? Thanks Kong Lionel
Kong, this is the 2nd chrono that touches my heart after Datograph
The layout of the dial, colour of the dial, nice case and of course stunning vintage movement are my cup of the tea. Hopefully, I get to see one in flesh. Then, ... Regards Ling

Rare Indeed!
Now this is truly a piece to post on this site and share... Rare, it definitely is. Beyond nice, it definitely is as well. Those photos of the back were almost "magical". Thanks for sharing as I hope everyone enjoys it as much as I did...
GOR---GEOUS!!!
Thanks Kong, I've always admired this watch. The slate sunburst dial adds depth and fascination to this really tasteful, classic piece.
possibly the nicest Mille Miglia i've seen in years.
i've not been a fan of the newer models since i owned a 2001 model, but this is great. there's something about a 'vintage' chrono that takes a lot of beating. does the 1874 have any relationship too the Omega 861? it looks very similar although this one i...
This vintage design has hit a chord with many ...
The Lemania 1874 movement, if I'm not wrong was related to Omega 866 for the Pro Moonphase and may have updated to 1866 currently. Kong
Chopard's MM
This I fell in love at first sight. I own a L.E. MM from year 2000 with black dial. But, this one with grey dial...... I am coming over to Singapore! Thanks Kong for sharing. Best Regards - PeterZ
Lemania Calibers
If I am not mistaken, the Omega 861 is also known as Lemania 1873. From what I read on the web, the 1874 is the decorated-and-without-plastic-part version of 1873. Used in Omega 863 and 864(c.o.s.c). Feels like a moonwatch with a different brand, ah? If o...
Patrick, i may be wrong,...
Patrick, i may be wrong, but i think Longines and Tissot made watches with the same Lemania based calibre as the 861, but i'm not aware of anyone else with a 321 calibre. best Graham
Lemania 2310
Graham, SteveG has a "Lemania" brand watch with a Lemania 2310. He has written a review and here are some photos "borrowed" from the article. (Google - SteveG Watch Launchpad). This article also shows a few newer watches from Patek, Vacheron and Breguet w...
Available in Hong Kong
Coincidentally, I was walking in the IFC mall yesterday and this piece caught my eye from the window. I had not seen it before, and it was instantly recognizable as different from any Chopard Chrono that I know of. Today I was in Pacific Place, and there ...
Beautiful piece
Great pics of a beautiful watch Kong!!! ...that would be a fine addition to my collection!
