1000 MIGLIA CHRONOGRAPH 2009
Chopard Mille Miglia Chronograph limited and numbered edition watches
alternativeAs every year and at the occasion of the Mille Miglia race, Chopard presents a new 1000 Miglia Chronograph issued in a limited and numbered edition. The 1000 Miglia Chronograph 2009 represents a return to historical roots. Inspired by an iconic model within the collection, the first ever featuring the famous rubber strap designed after the Dunlop Racing tire from the 60s, the 2009 edition plays on classic shapes, optimal readability and understated elegance. The 2009 edition features a 42 mm-diameter case and is equipped with a dial in ruthenium colour which displays hours, minutes and small seconds as well as a date between 4 and 5 o’clock. It also features 12-hour and 30-minute chronograph counters, a tachometer scale framing the dial, superluminova-coated numerals and hands, and a red-tipped central chronograph second hand. Devotees of such fine mechanisms will be delighted to note that the heart of the 1000 Miglia Chronograph 2009 beats to the cadence of a mechanical self-winding chronograph movement that is chronometer-certified by the COSC – a sure token of reliability and precision. Oscillating at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour, it has an approximately 42-hour power reserve. This mechanical movement is endowed with a stop seconds system enabling extremely accurate time setting. The 1000 Miglia Chronograph 2009 comes on a natural black rubber strap – featuring a 1960s Dunlop Racing tyre-tread motif – fitted with a pin buckle and is issued in a steel 2009-piece limited edition.
