First an apology to John. You contacted me in another forum, but I did not realize you needed model information. It is indeed a Champ du Monde as Jerry indicated.

The catalog is 1972 and as I said in my other note, I had never seen a CdM with chrome and Campag ends except as a catalog item until the two or three popped up on eBay a few months back. It appears from the catalog that chrome was an option, if my French translation is correct, for the CdM. I have a CdM also dated ca 1972, and it has no chrome. Another note of interest. They came in red and you only got another color via special order.
