Beautiful watch.
Kind of
I used to be associated with Jim Proffit through a mutual interest in old Chevy/GMC trucks. He found/restored this BMW Mille Miglia racer and eventually sold it back to BMW. It's a fascinating story, if you're interested in Mille Miglia racers.

Nice watch, congrats. I like the non diamond Chopards. It seems to do almost everything but is it anti-magnetic & diveable ?

Awesome piece! I have been looking for a white faced chrono for some time now and think I have to add this Chopard to my list.
