Chopard

After a moderately successful scouting last night (one of the two passes attempted was so foggy you could hardly see the end of the bonnet) today the Mille Miglia passes will be tackled in earnest. And what better watch to do it with than the Chopard Mill...  

...  

Admittedly, the SS65 was the main road back in the day 😊

Chianti in moderation before driving the Alpine 😂👍🏻

We don't see lighter colored dials often which is a shame, looks great with red accents. Being an endurance racing enthusiast I've always had a soft spot for the Jacky Ickx versions with a 24-hr counter.

Glad you like it - has red and green accents to mimic the Italian flag (anniversary edition of Italian unification).

Thanks Filip 🙏🏻

Enjoy! Best, Emmanuel

Even though there’s no time for much timing of anything 😉 Thanks Emmanuel. And a shot from Florence for you 😉 ...  

Have a nice day there!

Already further South and one more to go today 😊👍🏻

It complements the watch perfectly. That’s a true racing chrono. Great legibility, easy pusher access and great size. Here the Daytona is inferior I’m debating myself how it’s this watch a Drivers watch? No clue, but I still like it… Enjoy the trip! ...  

But no watch nowadays would have any useful function for driving, so classical concerns like legibility are less nowadays 😊 Thanks for joining in and wishing you a great weekend ahead 👋🏻

I somehow have the feeling that they rarely get featured and talked about these days - both here and more generally 🤷🏻‍♂️

That’s now more posted in a thread than I feel in the whole year before here 😁 Great one 👌🏻👍🏻
