Given that your nearest Chopard Boutique is similarly far away...
The trip may well be worth it 
The TimeWalker Chronograph UTC is definitely a good choice - and you will be properly attired for the Goodwood Festival of Speed, too
As for the 1858 Tachymeter in Bronze, it is a most appealing choice and the highest grade Bronze watch out there just now. The addition of a bronze coloured titanium on the case back (the non-transparent section) is also a lovely design touch, making sure no allergies will ensue. Probably worth having a conversation with your bank manager over this one...

I don't know the relative prices of either watch

Not quite...
Talking a factor of under 10 to 1. But still not in the region of missing one or two decent meals between the two
