Chopard Mille Miglia
« on: August 17, 2011, 08:16:05 AM »
Yesterday, my boss' friend came around again and we strike up a conversation.
He was kind enough to let me molest his Chopard Mille Miglia.
It seems like he has another Rolex Datejust Everose Gold.
Let's see if he wears it when I see him and ask to let me molest again  :thumbsup:
He told me how he impulse buy this Chopard in a Macau Boutique after winning at the casinos...
Damn... what luck they have...






And he kept the Chronograph running 24/7... well... it's his watch....
I would love to know more about the watch though... the case is shiny and greyish sort of like tungsten...

I oso not a fan but still that's one expensive watch...
Still waiting for the guy with the fifty fathoms to visit my boss again...
But I doubt I dare to ask him anything as he looks more fierce and serious...  :Laughing_on_floor:
This guy with the Chopard is more approachable... ;D

Another proof that rich people buy watches that they fancy without any thought for movement and whatnot... :HammerHead:

I suspect so since the watch has alligned itself with the 1000 miles (mille miglia) race...
Oris' tyre thread strap is based on formula 1.
