The history of this Chopard Mille Miglia GTS Power Control
This 43 mm Chopard, reference 168566-3007, is part of the long-standing partnership between Chopard and the legendary 1,000 Miglia automobile race, for which the House has been the official partner since 1988. This Grigio Speciale edition, produced as a limited and numbered series of 1,000 pieces, embodies the grand touring spirit at the heart of the GTS line: a sporty, legible and technical watch designed as a true instrument inspired by the automotive world. Its anthracite grey aesthetic and exclusive positioning make it a particularly sought-after model among collectors.
Case, movement and bracelet
This watch features a 43 mm titanium case, a lightweight and durable material perfectly suited to high-end sporting use. It houses a self-winding mechanical chronograph powered by the Chopard 01.08-C movement. The anthracite grey ruthenium dial, with a grained finish, is accented with white transfers, Arabic numerals and Super-LumiNova painted indexes, ensuring excellent legibility both day and night. The date is positioned at 3 o’clock. The watch is protected by an anti-reflective sapphire crystal and completed by a smoked sapphire exhibition caseback. It’s fitted with a black rubber strap with a woven-effect embossing, secured by a Chopard stainless steel folding clasp. Water resistance up to 100 metres.
Why this watch
This Chopard stands out for its perfect balance between sportiness, elegance and technical performance. The choice of titanium, its racing grey dial and its design inspired by automotive dashboards make it a watch that is discreet, modern and distinctive at the same time. Its limited edition of 1,000 pieces, combined with a manufacture movement and a strong identity, makes it a true collector’s watch, as enjoyable to wear daily as it is to include in a coherent watch collection.
