Pre-Basel Release 1 - L.U.C XP

LESS IS MORE… AND ELEGANT

Chopard exudes elegance with the ultra-thin L.U.C XP now available in rose gold or white gold with a slate-grey dial, complimenting the L.U.C Haute Horlogerie collection.

Accommodating a self-winding movement equipped with two barrels and an almost 70-hour power reserve within an ultra-thin case is no mean feat. The Chopard Manufacture watchmakers in Fleurier have accomplished this by constructing an off-centred rotor. The designers have also carefully conceived the large-diameter (39.5 mm) case, so as to give it a more streamlined profile with a thin bezel and an extremely fine case band. The result is a model featuring light, dynamic, timeless lines and radiating a supreme sense of balance.

Chopard offers its new L.U.C Ultra Thin watch in two chic versions, 18-carat rose gold or white gold variations with a slate-grey dial. The new slate-grey shade of the dial features applied hour-markers and four Arabic numerals which accentuates the understated elegance of this sophisticated model.

The Dauphine style hands meticulously mark off the hours and minutes, in step with the precision of the proprietary L.U.C movement. Winner of the 2006 Geneva Watchmaking Grand Prix in the ultra-thin watch category, the time piece is now a classic within the L.U.C collection.
