CHOPARD & MILLE MIGLIA
From Happy Diamonds to Mille Miglia,
ia, the
ingly
family-owned Chopard brand seemingly
has a split personality. On one hand the
brand has made some of the most exquisite ladies jewelry watches worthy of royested
alty, on the other, the brand has invested
heavily in the decidedly masculine pursuit
of motorsport inspiration. Chopard’ss latest
a partcollection honoring their Mille Miglia
es to life
nership first launched in 1988 comes
ronomin three variations: a three-hand chronomd the
eter, a tri-compax chronograph, and
“Power Control” model that adds a gas
rve to
gauge type display as a power reserve
the three-hand look. Each version carries
the symbolic red arrow Mille Miglia sign
ubtle
over the date window as a not so subtle
reminder of the partnership.
