The new Mille Miglia Classic Chronograph JX7 pays tribute to legendary driver and longstanding Chopard Ambassador, Jacky Ickx.
They say you should never meet your heroes but I have had the great privilege and pleasure to meet with and have dinner with Jacky on several occasions, always the consummate gentleman and a total legend. The stories he shared of his exploits on and off the circuit are heroic !
This Chopard watch features a wealth of references to the six-time winner of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, including his iconic midnight blue helmet.
