An Exclusive Timepiece Compatible with Superior Performance and Sophisticated Style
The design is inspired by the corrugated dial of the racing dashboard, which is known to be compatible with the performance and retro style of this watch. The red Mille Miglia logo is located at 12 o’clock, the calendar display is located at 4:30, and the design is subtly covered with a luminous coating. Every detail has been carefully conceived. Because the Mille Miglia is a 1000-mile test of endurance after all, it takes 4 days to travel between Brescia and Rome for more than 1,600 kilometers. When arriving at the end, it is often night. Therefore, the pointer coated with luminous coating can clearly read the average speed of the driver, and the ultimate style watch that the gentleman driver can’t put it down.
