Chopard 16/8961 (Miglia Tycoon) chronograph

Hello All,

I'm a long time lurker on ThePurists website, first time poster (or perhaps first time in several years).  I consider several criteria for adding timepieces to my collection, one among them being the case style.  I'm interested in adding a rectangular or square cased piece, and have been considering the Chopard 16/8961 as one possibility.

I'm interested in opinions on the 16/8961 in general, as well as any thoughts on comparison to other Chopard chronos and similarly priced chronos from other manufacturers.  I do have some experience with Chopard chronos, as I currently own a Monaco Historique (limited 250 pcs) chronograph with FP 1185 movement, and previously owned a Mille Miglia (original 39mm model).

Any comments greatly appreciated.  I've included a photo of the watch below.

Thanks!
