Still a family operation to this day, Chopard got its start in 1860 with a high-precision manufacturing facility specializing in pocket watches and chronometers. In its present guise, it excels in the world of high watchmaking, with an assortment of beautiful timepieces for men and women that range from casual chronographs to boundary pushing perpetual calendars and minute repeaters. Of note, Chopard is the longstanding timekeeping partner of the Mille Miglia — Italy’s iconic vintage car rally in which the brand’s co-president Karl-Friedrich Scheufele has been participating for several decades.
