Chopard has a close bond to the world of vintage car racing. Their passion for retro racing cars has inspired the “Classic Racing” watch collection featuring ranges such as Mille Miglia and Superfast. The brand also sponsors certain races including the Historic Monaco Grand Prix for which Chopard is the official timekeeper. This year, the watchmaker is launching a new collection of watches in tribute to the race and starts as it means to go on with the first piece. Just take one look at the dial and you’ll sense the lively lines and the dynamic vibrations bouncing off the colours. Its face is powerful yet restless: grooved, hollowed, blue, black and silver teamed with bright yellow. Its 44.5mm titanium case houses an automatic movement which breathes life into the hours, minutes, seconds (at 9 o’clock), chronographs (30-minute counter at 12 o’clock and 12-hour counter at 6 o’clock) and date (at 3 o’clock). Price: 6’790 CHF
