Romain Dumas claimed a historic fourth victory in the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb on Sunday: the legendary “Race to the Clouds”. Driving an innovative 100% electric Volkswagen race car, he successfully run the 19.96-km race and claimed victory in just 7 minutes 57 seconds and 148/1000. For this incredible performance, Dumas chose to wear Chopard’s legendary Mille Miglia GTS Speedblack watch.
The Mille Miglia GTS Speedblack is a sofisticated model cloaked in deep black, powered by a Chopard calibre and chronometer-certified by the COSC. With its red “Rossa Corsa” detailing, its oversized numerals recalling 1950s dashboards, its engine-style finishing and its strap featuring a vintage Dunlop racing tyre-tread motif, the Mille Miglia GTS Speedblack – issued in a 1,000-piece limited edition – perpetuates the Chopard classic racing spirit.
