Chopard

In homage to an artistic craft for which the village of Fleurier achieved fame from the 18th century onwards, Chopard is marking its 150th anniversary by presenting the L.U.C Tourbillon Esprit de Fleurier, a white gold timepiece issued in a 15-piece limit...  

So that was what this piece unrecognised at baselworld 2010 was? Extreme Left watch. Backsides MTF...  

MTF

given the rest of the watch and the nice more classic engraving, the TECH liek skeleton hands don;t quite gel. If the more traditional hands in like say the Lunar One or Regulateur non tech versions was used, this will be a home run for me.

Thanks for the post, Kong! I love this piece. The contrast of traditional Fleurier-style engraving with the L.U.C. Tech dauphine hands is awesome. The push-pull effect of old world decoration and modern design is making me salivate! I think the Tech hands...  

a marvel in craftsmanship--and composition. I love how the seconds dial is situated with the tourbillon, as well as how the gold contrasts with the dial. thanks for sharing, J

A beautiful and enticing rear bridge with classical engravings. Being a big fan of engraved art (anything from Purdey hunting rifles to watches), I find that I rarely dislike anything with fine engravings. Thank you for the focus and perspective Kong!

What a remarkable piece of art.
