chopard happy sport vs jlc master compressor
hi, this is my first post and also would like to seek advice from you guys/gals. which do u think is better the jlc mastercompressor (ladies with leather strap)or the chopard happy sport chrono (limited to 3000 pcs/snowflake). i'm sure i would go with the chopard if it were not quartz. i like both designs especially the chopard's moving diamonds and snowflake but i think an automatic watch would have more value as years go by and i wouldn't have to worry about battery leakage and such.
any suggestions/recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
mch

Welcome Mch!
Hi Mch Understand Amanico has provided you the inputs for JLC. As for Chopard, the Happy series are mainly quartz. If you are looking for mechanical diving GMT watch, will have to request you take a look at the Chopard L.U.C line, and the model is L.U.C P...

Your friends are not the only one ...
to think that Chopard is a jewellery maker. And you are right that Chopard started as a watchmaker and ventured into jewelery at a later stage in 50's and 60's. Somehow the jewellery segment gain more publicity than the watches. In 1996, Mr Karl-Friedrich...
question..
hi kong, thanks for the link. i shall look into it. my question is, when you say that there's an higher chance to have an issue with a mechanical one...what issues are you talking about? honestly, i dont know much about watches but i would think that a qu...
