Its 44 mm stainless steel case gives the watch the assertive stance collectors expect from the GT XL series, while the black dial prioritizes immediate legibility with oversized numerals, bright hands, and a clearly marked tachymeter scale. Power comes from the automatic ETA A07.211 caliber, a robust chronograph movement with date display that suited the sporting brief of the collection and helped position this reference as an accessible but technically credible Chopard. The case architecture, including guarded crown and pushers, reinforces the automotive character and the utilitarian design language of the period. The rubber strap with tire-tread motif is one of the model's defining signatures, directly linking the watch to vintage racing culture and the Mille Miglia theme. Within Chopard's Classic Racing family, this reference stands out as a larger, more aggressive interpretation of the collection before later in-house GTS models reshaped the line. Collectors are drawn to it for that transitional appeal: it captures Chopard's enthusiast-driven racing identity in a format that is unmistakably of its era. The black dial and steel case deliver a versatile, purposeful look, but the watch remains distinct thanks to its race-inspired detailing and chronograph layout. While not a limited edition for a specific country or boutique, it remains a compelling reference for buyers seeking a substantial modern Chopard sports chronograph with direct Mille Miglia pedigree. Excellent with Chopard box and papers dated 2011.
