自1977年重新举办以来，1000 Miglia大赛每年都会穿越圣马力诺、罗马、锡耶纳和佛罗伦萨的1600公里环路赛程，这一比赛始终令赛车手们兴奋不已，传奇赛车发动机的轰鸣声一触即发。自1988年以来，萧邦一直担任该赛事的主要合作伙伴和官方计时，品牌再次重申其承诺，并借此机会推出Mille Miglia 2021车赛限量版计时码表。这款优雅时计备有限量发行1000枚的精钢款式或限量发行250枚的双色款式，后者以精钢和符合伦理道德标准的18K玫瑰金制成，搭载经“瑞士官方天文台”认证的精密机芯，彰显萧邦对赛车运动始终不变的热情。
2021年度1000 Miglia大赛于6月16日至19日举行，这将标志着第39届“世界最美赛事”的历史性重启。首届赛事于1927年举行，当时由一群来自布雷西亚的汽车爱好者为应对意大利大奖赛迁往蒙扎市而发起。2021年大赛的路线设有一条逆时针赛道，旨在向首场比赛致敬——这在自1977年以来的比赛历程中实属首次。多达400辆汽车将从布雷西亚出发前往第勒尼安海岸，途径维亚雷焦，然后抵达罗马、亚平宁山脉和博洛尼亚。
与该系列中的每个表款一样，Mille Miglia 2021车赛限量版自动上链计时码表是一款可靠且充满运动气息的作品。它具备48小时动力储存，停秒功能，100米防水性能以及确保清晰读时的防眩光蓝宝石水晶。
备有两个表款可供选择——精钢表款，限量发行1000枚，或双材质表款，以精钢和符合伦理道德标准的18K玫瑰金制成，限量发行250枚，均配备经瑞士官方天文台认证（COSC)的机芯，这是萧邦联合总裁Karl-Friedrich Scheufele所珍视的精确度保证。

Since its revival in 1977, the 1000 Miglia race has continuously set the engines of legendary cars and the hearts of competitors throbbing over a 1,600 km loop through San Marino, Rome, Siena and Florence. As the main partner and official timekeeper of the event since 1988, Chopard is renewing its commitment once again this year, unveiling the Mille Miglia 2021 Race Edition chronographs for the occasion. Available in a limited edition of 1,000 pieces in stainless steel or in a two-tone version of 250 pieces in stainless steel and 18-carat pink ethical gold, this elegant timepiece equipped with a movement featuring ‘Chronometer’ certified precision reflects Chopard‘s unwavering passion for motor sports.
The 2021 1000 Miglia will take place from June 16th to 19th this year, marking the 39th historical re-enactment of ‘the race of the Red Arrow’. The first ever 1000 Miglia took place in 1927, when a group of car enthusiasts in Brescia staged the race as a response to losing the Italian Grand Prix to Monza. The 2021 route will pay homage to the original race, with this re-enactment running — for the first time ever — in a counter-clockwise direction. Four hundred motor cars will head to the Tyrrhenian coast from Brescia, stopping in Viareggio, before driving to Rome, the Apennines and Bologna.
Every timepiece in the Mille Miglia watch collection is resolutely sporty and completely reliable. The latest model to be inspired by the rally is no different; an automatic winding chronograph created to — first and foremost — measure time dependably. The Mille Miglia 2021 Race Edition model is a watch to be trusted, with 48-hour power reserve, stop-seconds function, water-resistance to 100 metres as well as a glare-proofed sapphire crystal to increase legibility.
Both options, the 1000-piece stainless steel version and the 250-piece stainless steel and ethical 18-carat rose gold version, feature a movement that has been chronometer-certified by the COSC, a guarantee of precision that is important to Chopard Co-President, Karl-Friedrich Scheufele.
Chopards marks its 34th year as official timekeeper
The 2021 1000 Miglia was flagged-away beneath the warm Italian sun yesterday afternoon, with 375 entries leaving the start ramp on the Viale Venezia at 30-second intervals to begin their thrilling, four-day adventure.
