Hi Kong, I have had a few MM over the years, and as you surmised
the vintage is really my favorite. It is after all a vintage car race!
Thanks again for the great report.
Best,

K. Fell in love with it at a watch show in Orlando few years ago.
I was looking to purchase another vintage rolex gmt but saw this in the display box. As a fan of racing thought it was so cool with the "tire" band and beautiful chronos in the blue and white. It is still a favorite even though it gets little wrist time i...
Very nice, Michael
Still a Neo Retro Look, elegant and sporty. A lot of charm! Best, Nicolas

Valjoux 7754. Also one more thing, it seems to be the last model of MM with the word 'tachymeter" Will be great if you could share with us a wristshot or two. Thanks. Kong
Thanks for the cool pic Sirjun...Like the reflection on the

oh i tend to beat the heck out of my watches as i tend to wear them relatively "robustly" i like the patina when they are worn... this one has been with me since its "Birth" and it spends most of its time boating water skiing and doing other such things t...
Glad to hear your MM survives since ...
birth after subjecting to some serious water sports and still running well. I think you are one of the rare persons who dare to wear the watches for 'real sports' situation. When you have time, please show us the 'patina' stage of your MM...closer views T...
I think this is 2005 model year too, not 100% sure..
And a big thanks to Chopard customer service [at HQ] for the complementary leather racing strap [pic below] while my bracelet was being replaced. The short version of the story is that my bracelet was broken under warranty and a replacement bracelet could...
My 2005 MM
I too have a 2005 model MM and while I love it, I've been a little disappointed in its lack of robustness. I'm not a huge collector but I've been adding the occasional watch to my stash over the past few decades. My current inventory is as follows: -2005 ...

Off all, the vintage series are my cup of tea.
They are very different from the look of other MM, not really a sport watch as compared to other MM. Kong, Will there be future development for vintage series or this is one off thing? Regards Ling
You are right at this moment :-)
If this MM Vintage is worn in 50's and 60's, it is different. Not so sure if there is any new development. Kong
After looking at all the modern Mille Miglias...
my favourite is still the 168331. With the highly polished bezel and rounded side case, it looks very elegant in metal. I didn't know it was a 1998 design. In my opinion it will remain a classic.
Thanks Kong, this is a lifetime must see. Really great article and
the vintage pictures are excellent! Best, Tim
