Chopard Racing Chronograph

I find this really appealing. It's the 2018 edition Chopard Millemila racing chronograph.





Any owners here to share some pics?

I’ve like that as well and reasonably priced. Alas I never pulled the trigger

Sharp watch. I like the straps that look like tire treads though.

I've been tempted, several times, by the Chopard chrono's. Looks like an excellent choice.

I consider myself somewhat knowledgeable on the subject of Chopard and having been to the famous vintage car race in Brescia, the Mille Miglia Collection release has always been a much anticipated yearly introduction. Great looking watch, and a very nice value in its craftsmanship and execution of design. Enjoy!

From pics I have seen so far, it does have the "expensive" look despite the modest price tag. I will probably like it.

I do like that and I've owned a MM GT XL, but that cut up 2 is a bit snake-like, no? Rather unfortunate.

No the 2 numeral chopped up by the subdial. Racing strap is cool.

i love my Mille Miglia. It's the watch that i guest complimented on the most! I have the GMT Chronograph with the ruthenium dial. I wait every year to see the latest releases and they are all very handsome. great choice! highly recommend the dunlop strap!

Just pick it up today, for the price, it's really not bad! The case mirror polishing is very well done and looks great and certainly looks more expensive than it cost. The dial has very sharp definition and the hands are highly polished. All in all, a good buy.

Congrats Ben, I really do like that. I'm gonna go see one, love the engine turned dial and the old school dashboard style.

Sorry, No. Anyway, while there's a caseback display, it's nothing fabulous to look at.
