The BIG news from Chopard is a small THING
KIH,
Thanks for the preview.
There are many new goodies from Chopard this year and even more at Baselworld.
The biggest news is a small object....the in-house mechanical movement for the 30mm ladies Happy Sport watch.
They chose the Happy Sport to premiere the movement for two reasons:
- It is the 25th anniversary of Happy Sport...the first diamond-set steel Chopard ladies watch under the steerage of the Scheufele family.
- It is the first time a mechanical Chopard movement is premiered in a ladies' watch.
The future possibilities with an in-house small automatic movement are limitless and matches the trend today for mechanical ladies watches at the sophisticated high end.

LIVE photo of the L.U.C Quattro 2018 model for another view
alkiro, I understand tastes vary but I also noticed that the live photos that I took look different from the Press images. It may not change your mind but at least have more data to decide.... The hands are very blue and the case has both brushed and mirr...
Thank you Melvyn for these additional live pictures
I think the main element which bothers me with this watch is the combo pink gold / blued hands, numerals and indexes which doesn’t work for me. With a white gold case, my feeling about this timepiece would be different for sure. And 43mm is definitely too...
I agree
I prefer the aesthetics of the older models. Though the sub-dial is an improvement over my 2017 model.
I remember your fascination with Rosso Corsa in 2015
FrX, I remember your fascination with rosso corsa during a walk in Rome back in 2015 [CLICK] The racing red is most compelling for me too as it is also a lucky Chinese colour. My red dachshund likes it too... In Rome with rosso corsa Red likes Red Regards...
Ah ah so true!
This red dial watch was my best Chopard souvenir in Rome! Maybe I will wear the red chronograph this summer... Fx
The LUC Quattro - looking forward to seeing it in this version...
I know that the blue hands and markers may not be to everyone's taste but they are certainly done in an intriguing way here. And I definitely enjoy brushed RG, so the case holds quite some appeal, too. Let's see what it looks like on the wrist
