History
Louis Ulysse founded the company in 1860. It was the start of “LUC”. His strategy was precision and quality. The turning point of the company is 1963 when he meets Karl Scheufele of Pforzheim who wants to continue the watch activity. It was the beginning of the prosperity for LUC. Since 1996, Chopard makes its own caliber including the 1.96 with mini-motor, the LUC Quattro with four mainsprings barrels, the LUC tourbillon and in 2006 the company own column-wheel chronograph. At the same time, Chopard develops the luxury Fleurier quality seal in conjunction with other companies.
This Chopard Mille Miglia 8915 has got a lot of heritage. The Mille Miglia (Thousand Miles) was an open-road endurance race, which took place in Italy twenty-four times from 1927 to 1957 (thirteen before the war, eleven from 1947)
