The quality of the finish is the same.
Beyond the swan neck regulator on the 1.96 which the 9.96 does not have.
There are some aesthetic differences, like the rotor decoration and style of
engraving, but those are visual rather than indicators of finishing quality.

I noticed this LUC Fleurier...
The other day I was at the Chopard boutique and something caught my eye. That does not happen often with Chopard. I respect the LUC range for its quality and construction but their designs leave me lukewarm. I once owned two LUC watches, one was the origi...
And more photos of the watch

you know, Arhthur mentioned this watch to me last night...
many thanks SJX, it is just timely. Arthur mentioned this watch to me last night in the Chopard forum. this watch even has not been displayed in the Chopard website. he suggested me to go down to the shop to check out this beautiful watch. he said i shoul...
I know why Arthur mentioned it to you
I mentioned it to him. :-) That's true word of mouth. - SJX

Afterall, only one watch next year. - SJX:::0:b4c7aab8ae8e3cee1c921d4c3d2f46d0:7d0::::
My friend...
all I can say is I told you so. SJX's pics are great and this piece will look nicer in the metal.
yes, you did...
all you told drives me crazy anyway, LOL. must see the metal very soon. stefan
I'm wiling to follow you there to assist ....
hehehehe. Buut seriously... its a very nice piece and to me, in the metal for this piece is not underwhelming.
it is pretty good idea, let's arrange it...
by the way, this one is limited edition of 250 pieces. do you know how many piece is allocated to Singapore? stefan

And more will be delivered in the future. - SJX This message has been edited by SJX on 2009-11-10 20:35:35
Thanks for bringing this to our attention SJX...
and for the nice pics. It does look inviting and I did make an effort to try to see one in the metal but no luck.I guess they aren't in HK yet. Will have to wait for an account from our very discerning JLC moderator to see if it passes the test.
Will have to see this one in the flesh
As we soon have a L.U.C Dinner, it will be the opportunity to have an eye on it. From what I see on your pics, it seems that the finish is appealing, and that the layout of the dial ( my biggest problem with L.U.C watches ) looks nice. Best, and thanks fo...
I think that you'll find it has a very
fresh look and feel about it and not gimicky. The play on shades of silver is done is a very enduring tasteful manner I think.
Will tell you very soon, my friend.
I'm discovering L.U.C watches... Will tell you once I see it in the flesh. But right now, from the pics I see, the " à priori " is positive. Best, Nicolas
Nicolas...
it looks better than several JLC watches in the same price range. ;-) - SJX
Ha! Don't poke the bear.......
SJX, Not our French JLC bear! But I'm sure he will see stuff to like at the Chopard LUC Event in Paris soon....... Regards, MTF
A nice midway point
between the Tech Twist and the original Fleurier model.... I may need to start saving some money A
Aesthetically,1.96 (with Geneva Seal) appears better than 9.96 but...
1.96 is without QF certification. Thanks for the post, SJX. Regards Ling

NO BEES?
I know I cant hv the beehive and admire the nice sml rotor movement unless they do one with an officer case . I pray that they do one someday . This is a very tech twisty version of a QF , a smart play of design . Thanks SJX
Good to hear from you George
The open caseback is far more attractive than the beehive. - SJX
Brrrr...
...that's some icy goodness, SJX. Stellar photos of an attractive watch. I continue to really enjoy the LUC line from Chopard. This one gets added onto my list of Chopard faves, which also currently includes the steel Chrono One, Strike One (both the clas...
