Jacky Ickx and the Mille Miglia …
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.

That’s great that you were able to meet him!
He was a great racer for sure! I like a lot of the MM watches.
Lucky indeed …
He is a real gentleman and a lucky to survive a very dangerous era of racing.
I didn’t see this coming …
Hi Bill, Out if interest, what made you pull the trigger on this particular Chopard ?
