Description

Here we have a 2010s Chopard Mille Miglia 'Jacky Ickx Edition' V 168543-3001, a muscular racing-inspired tribute limited to 2,000 pieces worldwide. A limited-edition luxury sports watch dedicated to racing legend Jacky Ickx. This timepiece blends elite Swiss horology with motorsport heritage, drawing inspiration from Ickx's six iconic victories at the gruelling Le Mans 24 Hours. The bold 42.5mm stainless steel case features meticulously polished surfaces that transition seamlessly into strong lugs, with a 51.5mm lug-to-lug length and a 14mm case thickness that gives this motorsport piece an authoritative footprint on the wrist. Down the right side sits a signed push-pull crown flanked by classic pump chronograph pushers. The sporty steel bezel features a black inlay with a tachometer scale, holding a domed sapphire crystal over a striking matte black tri-compax dial. Designed with nods to the Le Mans 24-hour race, the dial features luminescent index markers, a 60-minute register at 9 o’clock, and a specialised 24-hour chronograph sub-dial at 6 o'clock. A prominent, framed Big Date indicator sits perfectly under the 12 o'clock marker. Broad, luminescent sword hands paired with a sweeping chronograph hand track elapsed time with high legibility. The sapphire window features black printed graphics on the underside displaying Jacky Ickx's actual signature alongside a crossed chequered flag and racing flag motif displaying "6/24"—immortalising his six historic 24-hour wins and showcasing the automatic ETA-derived Calibre 2892 (Dubois-Depraz module), a COSC-certified chronometer running smoothly at 28,800 beats per hour. The watch comes paired with its original 21mm Chopard alligator leather strap, secured by a signed stainless steel folding deployant clasp, and includes its Chopard presentation box, Booklet, Chopard Tyre pressure gauge, and 2025 Chopard Service card.

Personal Note

Mille Miglia, Jacky Ickx, and Chopard, all coming together in one watch. What’s not to love? I’ve always enjoyed the connection between Chopard and motorsport, and this particular edition takes that relationship a step further by celebrating one of endurance racing’s greatest drivers. The 24-hour chronograph, Big Date, and wonderful little racing details make it feel genuinely special rather than just another limited edition with a famous name attached. Add in the fact that this example benefits from a 2025 Chopard service, and you’ve got a fantastic motorsport-inspired chronograph that’s ready to be worn and enjoyed. I would not hesitate to add this watch to your collection today!

About Chopard

Le Petit-Fils de L.-U. Chopard & Cie S.A. is more commonly known as Chopard. It was founded in 1860 by Louis-Ulysse Chopard in Sonvilier, Switzerland. Local farmers during the hard winters would assemble watches that would be collected by the master watchmaker. Paul-Louis Chopard opened a branch in 1915 in the nearby town of La-Chaux-de-Fonds. Later in 1937, the company was relocated to the heart of Geneva. Karl-Scheufele III, a goldsmith and watchmaker, owned ESZEHA, making jewellery and watches. He was looking for a Swiss supplier and came to Geneva, where Chopard was last on his list; they immediately got on, and a deal was struck. Germany’s Scheufele family has owned Chopard since 1963. Their clients included Tsar Nicholas II of Russia. The world’s first watch crafted from Fairmined gold was made by Chopard in 2013.
