onzenuub Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 Never seen a review of this watch, is is a few years old, still thought it's a nice watch and needed a review, therefor: Review Chopard Mille Miglia GMT Chrono The legendary Mille Miglia car race has been held annually from 1927 to 1957 and was revived in 1977, taking its competitors over a distance of 1000 miles through magnificent Italian countryside from Brescia to Rome and back again. Passionate about vintage cars, Karl-Friedrich Scheufele has been playing an active part in the race since 1988, when Chopard supported this event as a main sponsor and official timekeeper for the first time.

valerian Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 Thanks for this great review and for taking the time to do it. I really have to have a closer look at Chopard watches. Could be expensive though... Val. P.S. I'm only a member here because of your avatar. I dont care about watches at all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dluddy Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 Very nice review of a watch I never paid much attention to. That just changed Thanks for sharing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chubbchubb Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 Thanks for doing this review. The Mille Miglia is really a much underrated rep because it looks and feels a lot more convincing that many of the more popular Rollies. I love mine and it looks great on a leather strap too...

By-Tor Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 Amazing review & contribution. This is very nice rep... I've always liked it. Black is always the safest choice but the beige dial color version is my personal favorite. Definitely on my endless "must have" list. So many watches, so few wrists...

jkerouac Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 I've had mine (a panda version) for almost two years and it remains one of my favorite watches. But I, too, wanted to have the AR treatment and was disappointed to learn about the two-part crystal. One other flaw is that my sweep second hand sweeps a bit irregularly. I'd even describe the movement as a bit [censored]. I heard that this was somewhat common among the early reps of this watch. Is this still the case for people who purchased the Mille Miglia more recently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toadtorrent Posted March 7, 2010 Report Share Posted March 7, 2010 That's a great looking piece. Again...thanks for spending the time to write this up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dovo1695 Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 Great review. I really enjoyed reading this. I've been admiring the white face version of this watch for quite some. It's been steadily climbing up my watch queue ever since. Your review has just reinforced that inclination. Thanks for taking the time to put this together! -Dovo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzipy Posted March 8, 2010 Report Share Posted March 8, 2010 I remember Tshaki saying it was the best rep out of the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8614 Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 Hi, I am considering this watch as well apart from the Omega 45.5 Planet ocean chrono. Do you have any idea on how it fares with the other Reps? Do you have any problems with the watch mechanism or its functions? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
