BaselWorld 2012 : Classic Manufactum
The elegantly understated Classic heralds a new collection at Chopard. Equipped with a new mechanical movement developed and produced in-house, it is inspired by the magnificent pocket-watches that Louis-Ulysse Chopard had made his speciality, and symboli...
Beautiful! Except....

Agree.
The date window mars an otherwise lovely dial. Nice direction in general, however. Cheers, Daos

...this might be the first Chopard outside the L.U.C collection that I would consider. It appears to be a lovely case and dial. I presume this is the same movement we've seen in the 1937? Best, CaliforniaJed
I wonder...
Almost all of us can see that date window "spoil" the watch. Can't Chopard designer team see that? Regards Ling
Imho...its not that they can't see it, they see it differently.
I think this watch looks fine...agree to comment below that it could've a minute rail. But hey, they cant please all of us I guess Very good try already.
Good size!
