Introducing Chopard Classic Racing (ref. 161296-5001), a contemporary classic shaped by careful watchmaking know-how. The exterior is thoughtfully executed: crafted in rose gold and measuring 43 mm in diameter, with a thickness of 11.43 mm, defined by a round silhouette, paired with a rotating, 0-60 (dive) bezel. The caseback is open, and the crystal is sapphire, delivering water resistance to 10000 meters. At a glance, the dial balances texture and clarity: a black tone, framed by mixed hour markers, and stick hands. At its heart beats a proven engine: the Chopard 01.08-C caliber. Introduced in 2015. With considered ergonomics, it feels composed during extended wear. Brushed and polished elements play with light to emphasize crisp geometry. For buyers researching specifications and real-world impressions, this reference stands out for coherent design, dependable mechanics, and lasting relevance within modern horology.
