Congratulations, Carol!
Your new Chopard is a very nice watch. I don't own one, but have handled it, and certainly thought it was a fine piece. I'm happy to see another Lady Purist who isn't afraid to wear a 42mm sports watch. I personally love dive watches, and I like to see a confident, self-assured woman wearing one.
Enjoy your watch, and please do think about posting pictures at some point down the road. I was afraid to post pictures to the site for a long time because I'm not a good photographer at all, but even I manage to post a photo or two now and then. Everyone on the forum has been very kind and supportive of my meager efforts, so I encourage you to enter the arena as well! Audentes fortuna iuvat!
Cheers,
Daos
Just so you know..............
I received my Pro One orange a couple of days ago. So far so good. It is unlike any other watch I own and I am enjoying it. I expect that I am one of the few, if not the only, female who ows this model but if there are any others of you on this forum I am...
Congrats Carol!
Please do share some pictures when you have the chance. Thanks! Cheers, Anthony
Thanks for your note of congratulations, Anthony. I wish
I could share some photos, but I am hopeless when it comes to cameras and computers. I don't have the right camera or the needed photographic skills to produce the photos I would want, and these handicaps don't even come close to the problems I would have...
Congrats to you!
Hello Carol! Congrats on your Pro One! Excellent choice. What other watches do you have or compared to when selecting the Chopard? Care to share some pics of your new watch? Wear it in the best of health! -MW
Hello, MW. The Pro One orange was what might be considered a somewhat impulsive
purchase. I saw it on a Saturday at a local AD, thought about it over the weekend, several days later I had a telephone conversation with a member of the sales staff at Chopard in Manhattan where I made the purchase...... and the rest is history. I guess ...
Hello Carol...
Don't worry about camera skills. I got a Nikon SLR last year for Christmas and didn't know anything about photography.....It's been a year later and I still don't know what I'm doing! I just shoot and post on ThePuristS photo forum ( www.network54....
Excellent News!
Congratulations Carol. I'm glad to see you become a Chopard owner! You will love the watch, it is very special.
Thanks, Mark. I really like this watch. Your wrist shot is what sold me on
this piece. Thank you for your words of encouragement. Carol

Hello, Daos. Yes, I suddenly got focused on a diving watch and this
purchase is the end result. Although I live in New England, only minutes from the ocean, I will never use the watch for this purpose because I don't spend anytime on or in the water. For me, watches are more about form than function. I am not too interest...
Congratulations Carol!
I am glad a Lady is wearing a sporty L.U.C. Did you get with a bracelet or straps? Kong
Hi Kong. I got the black leather with orange stitching. I have also
ordered one with white stitching. The strap that came on the watch is of excellent quality and it has a sharkskin lining which is quite nice. I am a fan of fine leather goods. I didn't go for the metal bracelet due to sizing considerations. Thanks for the...
Glad that you prefer fine leather goods ...
as if you ever wish to have a bracelet later, I would suggest you quickly speak to the AD to switch to the bracelet option and buy the leather straps separately. Reason is if to buy the bracelet later on, it will cost a lot more than buying with the brace...
Sounds wonderful!
I am all for impulse purchases, and I have a weak spot for orange on dive watches. Enjoy! I am no longer working downtown (or anywhere right now, for that matter), but perhaps we can always meet for a drink or a coffee. if you bring the watch I'll bring a...
Hi Ginger. I'll look forward to seeing your incoming strap for the Zenith. Once you
have it let me know and we can plan to get together. Carol
Congratulations Carol!
The Pro One orange is one of the nicest diver watches on the market. It has the "bit special" that distinguishes it from other watches, still being very versatile and wearable. Best regards, Gerard
Thanks for your note, Girard.
Do you own a Chopard or a diving watch? If so, which one(s)? Carol
Hi Carol.
Yes, I own the Chopard Luc Twist in white gold. As for diver watches, I have the Ulysse Nardin Blue Surf,Sinn U1 SDR and Omega SMP. Regards, Gerard
