Surrounded with a tachymetric scale, the Chopard L.U.C Mille Miglia 2016 XL Race Edition replica watch dial revives the aesthetic of vintage dashboards and ensures maximum readability thanks to its large numerals and luminescent hands. Inspired by leather car-bonnet tie-down straps, its beautifully weathered strap in Suportlo calfskin echoes the legendary spirit of the Italian competition that Chopard replica watch has been serving as partner and official timekeeper since 1988.
A generously sized retro-style timepiece issued in a 1,000-piece stainless steel edition, the Chopard L.U.C Mille Miglia 2016 XL Race Edition replica watch is inspired by the design codes of the cars that took part in the historical race between 1927 and 1940. Water-resistant to 50 metres, its sturdy 46 mm-diameter case makes it the largest of the Mille Miglia wrist Chopard Chronograph Replica created by Chopard.
Its classic and refined lines are enhanced by two traditional pushers and a fluted crown. The perfectly readable black dial of Chopard L.U.C Mille Miglia 2016 XL Race Edition replica watch is enlivened by wide Arabic numerals and luminescent hands, while the bright red sweep-seconds hand stands out clearly to count off the precious seconds of the race. These legibility-enhancing attributes are essential in a timepiece dedicated to competition in any conditions.
Topped by a tachymetric scale, an indication that is useful in calculating average speed which is a decisive factor in endurance racing, the satin-brushed dial displays snailed anthracite and black counters reminiscent of car dashboards. Echoing the sweep-seconds hand, the “Rossa Corsa” red arrow-shaped Mille Miglia logo appears both at 12 o’clock on the Chopard L.U.C Mille Miglia 2016 XL Race Edition replica watch dial and around the rim of the exhibition case-back.
