His and Hers Chronographs

Inspired by cars having taken part in the Mille Miglia between 1927 and 1940. Enhance by two traditional pushers and a fluted crown echoing those of vintage chronographs, the steel cases of the Mille Miglia Classic Chronograph models feature pleasingly balanced dimensions 42 mm for gentleman racers and 39 mm with a gem-set bezel for lady drivers matched by classic lines.



The case, in stainless steel, measures 39mm x 11.8mm or 42mm x 12.6mm . It has double AR-coated sapphire crystals and it is water resistant to 50 meters. The caseback rim has the Mille Miglia logo. A gemset bezel is available for the 39mm version.

Chronograph hours, minutes and seconds counters at 6, 9 and 3 o'clock respectively. Date in a window between 4 and 5 o'clock.



The 39mm version features a circular satin-brushed silver-toned dial with opaline silver-toned inner bezel ring, or white mother-of-pearl dial. Anthracite grey railway-type transfers. Red Mille Miglia logo. SuperLuminova-painted hours numerals. Finely snailed silver-toned hours, minutes and seconds counters. Rhodiumed baton-type hours and minutes hands painted with SuperLuminova. Rhodiumed baton-type chronograph counter hands and rhodiumed sweep-seconds hand with red tip.
