My first Chopard
Allow me to give a little backstory...for the past couple months, I was looking to get a nice perpetual calendar with an oversized date window. That left me with either the Lange Datograph (I wanted the chronograph function) or a Chopard Lunar One (edit: or a GO perpetual like the senator or navigator, as well. Forgot about them.) So, I had been keeping an eye out, making offers when something interesting popped up. I really wanted a perpetual calendar with some kind of additional function.
But then, just a month or two ago, a really interesting piece popped up. It took a bit of negotiating, but the price was good and I ended up pulling the trigger.

Perpetual Calendar, Tourbillon, 7 day power reserve, equation of time and moonphase on the back? Yes, please.
I want to say this is the last watch I buy, but we'll see. If you're interested in a more detailed write up, after I wear it for a month or two, maybe I can do something more substantial. For now, all I can say is that I've never owned a watch this big. It's a different feeling, but it's surprising how quickly I'm adjusting to it.

Don’t know about being a killer, but he’s definitely a rubbish hitman!
He said he pulled the trigger – but, from what I can see, he hasn’t even grazed the watch.
Wowww!!!
What a catch!!! Huge congratulations! Enjoy, and please share with us your impressions as time passes, alongside a picture or two. Cheers, Alex
Big date is a really useful feature, even in perpetual calendar
Plus 8 days of power reserve and the turbo. Now you only miss a simple datograph ;-)
Now I completely understand nickname you use on PPro :)
Congrats on this heavy catch Cordially D
I am a very big fan of this one, congrats!
My Chopard watch has been nothing short of utterly satisfying, I'm sure this one is on a totally different level.
Very rare at only 15 pieces
Sneakattack, Congratulations. That L.U.C 150th Anniversary All-in-One is a rare piece and I've only ever seen and touched one. It has to be a "heart' photograph, of course. Tell us what you think after some time with it. Regards, MTF L.U.C 150th Anniversa...
LUC perpetuals
I seriously am looking at the ss twin perpetual but Tourbillion not on my needs list. Really love the layout and style both of these LUC pieces. Congrats. BTW how long is the power reserve? Nick ...
Website and back say 7 days
I will say the case is a bit thick, but the wind is buttery smooth for a 7 day power reserve.
You certainly live up to your name!
Your first Chopard and it's a super heavyweight! Huge congrats! J
Huge congrats!!
... That´s really a killer Piece! Had it on my wrist one time but for me it seemed too large. But it depends and what you´re used to... What I like most is that you really wear it. I don´t think that many of the 15 pieces are worn regularly... There are n...
I have to admit, bigger than I expected
I usually wear my watches loosely, but this guy is worn pretty tight, and as a result, doesn't move around much now. I will say this: tonight I am going over to the Cartier boutique and will try to fit one of their 23mm straps and a sliding deployment ont...
Congratulations on this fabulous piece!
The only question I have is how do you intend to top this I hope you\'ll have a lot of pleasure with it and that we\'ll get to see / read about it often
First: thank you to everyone!
and second...boy, I don't know. I'm not sure it's possible to top this watch in terms of just how much fun it was to hunt down. There are perhaps two other watches I think I'd like to have. If I get a chance to snag a reverso gyrotourbillon, I would love ...
