Thanks for appreciate it

Love the depth of the dial!

Multi-level dials can make or break a piece IMO. Chopard has done a nice job by varying the depth in different areas. I like the shape of the bezel though I'm not sure how I feel about the paired screws. Chopard is between a rock and a hard place on this ...

Thanks for appreciate it. Screws layout is cool IMHO. And I love the effect of Polished screws heads inside the brushed bezel. It remember too an evolution of the Breitling "Knights" on chronomat bezels...

Thank you for this story and big congratulations for this new Chopard

You’re absolutely right about it. I remember I saw mainly of them in white and not with a chrono function. Yours is in really good state. Great find after such a hunt. Enjoy and wear it in the best of your health. Best wishes Alkiro

Rare indeed

Soyuz, That is a rare watch. I've not seen one in real life before. Thanks for showing. It's in good condition probably because it was in Japan and was not a daily wearer. I'm interviewing the St. Moritz project manager tomorrow and will find out more. Re... 

Thanks

Dear Andrea, this is one of my favorite watches and I am so happy that you post it. I have to admit that I never had the chance to handle one, but the online pictures make it to the favorite it is to me. Your wirst shots are something unique that you can ... 

Thanks for your interest

Dear kolosstt You're right. This is an forgotten reference an I don't know why Chopard hasn't bet on that piece with better advert campaign. It has nothing to envy to similar competitors (RO or GP Laureato, or Zenith El Primero...For example). That piece ... 

So rare.... but I remember this and still love it.

Bezel design is a bit unusual for Chopard L.U.C, but symmetry screw heads are perfectly aligned. Aesthetically superb watch.... Thanks for sharing! Ken

Thank you very much

I'm very happy you like it. Regards Andrea

Information from Chopard: St Moritz design was entirely in-house and NOT by Gerald Genta

Soyuz, I spoke with the original project manager of the St Moritz watch design team today. He said that the original St Moritz design is in-house Chopard in origin and that the late Gerald Genta was not involved. Chopard St Moritz The original shape was a...
