Chopard

When I presented you several weeks ago the renovated first floor of the Chopard boutique Place Vendôme, I would have never expected to find inside an oil can and a tire... far from the image of the high jewelry! But I loved what I saw yesterday at the boutique: an exhibition dedicated to the involvement of Chopard with Porsche at the 24 hours of Le Mans!

Of course, the aim of such exhibition is to highlight the two Superfast Chrono - Porsche 919 watches and to pay homage to Jacky Ickx.  But I appreciated a lot the contrast between the motor races atmosphere and the formal room of the boutique.

Please find below several pics I took, sadly with my phone, during my visit:

A true 5 senses visit!

The Jacky Ickx limited edition on the wrist in front of one of his helmets:

The right context for this watch!

A close-up pic of the Jacky Ickx edition: I will have the opportunity to come back later about it.

And the Superfast Chrono Porsche 919:

The exhibition will last till the end of the month so if you are in Paris, don't hesitate to have a look at the first floor of the boutique, you will be surprised!

Thanks to the team of the boutique.

... do you know if the helmets were originals?

The memorabilia on show are real and represent a small part of Jacky Ickx racing memories.

See a sub-thread on this discussion for more photos.

Thanks for the reminder about the Jacky Ickx and Le Mans Exhibition in the Chopard Boutique Paris.

These are Jacky Ickx's race helmets.

Cannibal Publishers made a set of memorabilia from objects at races.

Guests welcomed at the Exhibition in Chopard Boutique Paris on the eve of this year's 24 Hours of Le Mans.
