Chopard Watches Mille Miglia GT XL Chrono Split Seconds

Written by James Matthews

Chopard Mille Miglia GT XL Chrono Split Seconds watch. The embodiment of sporting sophistication and aesthetic elegance: Chopard Watches has successfully melded two sometimes paradoxical features to endow the Chopard Mille Miglia GT XL Chrono Split Seconds watchk with a unique strength both in character and endurance.

The case, in 18kt rose gold, measures 44mm x 14.2mm. It has double sapphire crystals and is water resistant to 100 meters. Movement is a Swiss automatic with 27 jewels, beating at 28,800 bph and with a power reserve of 42 hours (base ETA 7750) with split seconds complication. Additionally Chopard has made sure it is COSC-certified as a chronometer.

The association of rose gold and DLC blackened steel lends this model a distinctive dimension based on the power of contrasts. Chronometer-certified by the COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute), its chronograph movement will appeal to connoisseurs of fine mechanical engineering – whether expressed in watches or cars.

Contrasts and elegance: such are the immediate twin impressions exuded by the Chopard Watches Mille Miglia GT XL Chrono Split Seconds. The gentle warmth of 18-carat rose gold on the bezel, pushers and crown makes a striking contrast with the sporting dynamics of the case in DLC (Diamond Like Carbon) blackened steel. Teamed with a black dial and the prominent natural black rubber strap with its 1960s Dunlop Racing tire-tread motif, these effects confer an incredible sense of rugged reliability on the exceptional mechanical marvel.

The Chopard watch company has limited this to a unique 500 pieces.
