Chopard Mille Miglia Classic Chronograph Tribute to Sir Stirling Moss . . .
Chopard unveiled this latest Mille Miglia to celebrate the 70th anniversary of Sir Stirling Moss’s victory at the 1955 Mille Miglia:
Paired with a brown perforated calfskin calk, we’re looking at a 40.5mm Lucent Steel case with a thickness of 12.88mm. The lug-to-lug length is 48.17mm.
The silvery opaline dial takes inspiration from Sir Moss’s Mercedes-Benz 300SLR:
The minute scale uses red fonts while the tachymeter uses blue fonts. The tip of the central seconds counter is also red.
She’s brought to life by the chronometer-certified ETA A322-11 automatic movement. The sapphire crystal is engraved with a checkered flag intertwined with the British Union Jack.
This LE piece retails for CHF 9,750 ($11,855 USD). Really loving the design and presence of this one - but as with so many brands lately, the increasingly exorbitant pricing is tough to swallow. It’s getting harder to justify, especially with an ETA movement.

Not that long ago…
They offered an in-house chronograph movement for significantly less 🤷🏻♂️ I find a lot of the design choices nicely judged, though - however the date wheel still not matching the dial color is an unfortunate miss. Especially at this price point 🤦🏻♂️ ...
They did omit it…
From a rose gold version with the very high grade in house chronograph movement (the same as in the Purist Edition). Had that one not been RG I would have been sorely tempted 👍🏻
