There's still the non-race related LUC 8HF :)
In a smaller size, more versatile...
Makes the heart beat faster - The Chopard Superfast 8HF
Chopard is - as far as I know - the only watch manufacture producing 8Hz movements, and several Purists are happy owners of the LUC 8HF. Now it would have been surprising if this technical marvel remained limited to the 125 units in titanium and the 250 i...
An 8Hz chrono, I'm with you!
My own 8Hz has been a real pleasure, and I am proud I made the jump on it sight unseen at the time. I would not trade it for this Porsche 919 model, but if I were in to those cars this new model might appeal to me. Thanks for the photo report!
I know you do!

Yes, I have been looking for a "decent" chrono and 8HF chrono (ideally, a L.U.C) would be perfect!!
When I saw this 8HF Superfast, I really, really from the bottom of my heart wished it had been a chronograph..... Let's hope, guys, it happen next year or so? That would make my collection perfect (for now)... Ken
Not convincing enough as a second Chopard Superfast to me..

Nice
I personally prefer the LUC 8Hz over this one. Always thought Chopard is more suited to the more understated , clean and elegant designs. If I want a shouty, bold looking sports watch, I'd go for Rolex DSSD or Omega Seamaster planet ocean. Instantly more ...
I am fully with you there :)
The LUC would definitely still be my preference amongst the two for very much the reasons you described. I much prefer my watch not sending any obvious messages to the majority of people
