An overview of the L.U.C Strike One iterations
First launched in 2006 with an art deco design and an on/off pusher at 10 o’clock (caliber 96 SH), the Strike One has been updated in 2008 with a "tech" opened dial version and then completely transformed in 2022 with a honeycomb design derived from the 1...
Thank you for sharing!
I am biased so I like the last one best partly because it is the rarest, partly because it is in steel which arguably gives the watch even better resonance, partly because I love Chopard's take on the salmon dial and partly because mine will be arriving i...
