The Chopard Mille Miglia Zagato stems from the partnership between Chopard and a design legend: the Milan-based bodywork specialist Zagato. Zagato is known for its distinctive designs brought to some of the world’s most prestigious auto brands, just one example being the Aston Martin V12 Zagato (see Did You Know? below for more). Chopard has been the official timekeeper and sponsor of the Mille Migliaroad race for 25 years and every year as far back as I can recall it has produced a new limited edition piece to commemorate the race. In fact it was along the route of the legendary Mille Miglia that Karl-Friedrich Scheufele, the Co-President of Chopard, met with Andrea Zagato, the third generation in his family to head the Milan-based automobile body design firm — the genesis of this collaboration.
