Ha! Stefan. You're as bad as Kong.
I have the PSM chinese Shimoda in Red Gold already on my desktop which is how I start my process for the next piece. Its a good way for me to see if I tire of it easily so it should be there for the next few months or so 
Not The Latest and Trendiest but Definitely a Worthy Addition IMO (Long)
After 6 – 7 months of deliberation and courtship, and countless times to the AD to ponder over her on the wrist, an opportunity arrived 2 days ago for my latest addition which materialized in the form of the Chopard LUC Regulateur. Why a regulateur? A goo...
Congrats Arthur!
Very nice auspicious number too! The pictures are good too with a mobile, and I tend to concur with you about the L.U.C finishing. Thanks for sharing hunting process, indeed interesting. Did anyone tell you your dial base-material is gold? And you are rig...
Thanks Kong! More and better pics are dependent on Deck's schedule.
So the base layer if the dial is in gold and what is the substance used for the white coating for the dial? I just took another close look at the dial and I must say, the guilloche work is very very good.
Those are inks...
I think it is sprayed on. For L.U.C all pieces with Geneva Seal, the dial are gold material. They are made by Metalam. If you are keen to know a bit more about dial-making this may be something interesting to view : chopard.watchprosite.com Kong
Beautiful
Is the all white dial a special version or an older version? I have been shopping for a regulateur and have only seen the LUC's with black accents. Enjoy, Ginger
This is the older version I think.
The black accent ring on the dial is actually quite nice but perhaps adds to what some may view as an already rather busy dial. if you're looking for a regulateur, really put this as one to be considered. I looked around quite a while and I guess you know...
so happy with you, Arthur, finally you made up your mind...
this is a really great one, Arthur! congrats. it is time to think of your next one, ha ha... stefan

Thanks for the write-up!
I saw your post on today's Friday wristshot thread and must offer hearty congratulations again here. I think this is a great pickup. I have been very impressed by what I've seen of Chopard. One of my favorite regulator watches is the LUC Tech Regulator, a...
Thanks agin Daos
I actually had the 30 piece LE in steel offered to me as well but I guess I took a stand to stick with some kind of precious metal awhile back. But yes, this little vixen is quite a piece which goes unconsidered in most cases.
Welcome to the club :)
Congrats again Arthur! That's an excellent piece to add to your not-so-humble collection. A tourbillon next? Regards, iAn This message has been edited by ianny on 2009-08-14 20:46:11
Well, due to the mystery and aura
that tends to surround tourbillons (for me at least), yes I do havethat on the radar at some point in time. Hopefully I can kill 2 birds with one stone by getting a 1 hand watch (seemingly at least) and a tourbillon by way of Le Freak 1.0. Heard you pulle...
Yes I did...
And I had to attend a company event at Sentosa but luckily it was held at 2 pm. I was walking around like a zombie though. The combination of great company & watch/car talks is a very enticing one. We should do this again. No, I don't mean going home ...
Kong is certainly a significant influence to L.U.C. world.
Congrats on your wise choice. I was introduced to L.U.C. a couple of years ago by Kong. Since then, there is no return and I am happy to go forward to learn more. Regards Ling
I grudgingly concur
wmclartenf1, Good choice! As ex-moderator for Chopard and current moderator for Piaget, I am torn between their respective regulators. Th y are both in-house designed and executed manufacture movements. Th e Chopard LUC movement is a little thicker than t...
