Impulsive acquisition
Yesterday, while waiting for my dental appointment, I wandered into the Chopard boutique in the hope of taking a look at the 1860SS in the flesh but was told that the waiting list was very, very long. Instead I stumbled across this limited edition WG piece and was immediately moonstruck with the guilloche dial and the officer case. Much against my better judgment that it may not be a wise investment, I pulled the trigger and am now a very happy man.
The watch is COSC certified and has a Geneva Seal

Being a retired person, I may not have lots of opportunity to wear a dress watch but nonetheless will take it out of the safe from time to time and admire it as a fine piece of art....
What do you think?
Nice, I really like that dial.
You are very fortunate to be able to do that, congratulations.
Sometimes being trigger happy brings great results!
This is a fantastic purchase! Wear it often.
I would rate it in the same league as
Romain Gathier and Laurent Ferrier's micro-rotor models...
Unfortunately, yes...
...but if you buy what you love (and can afford) you are OK. The obvious solution is to buy pre-owned, but there are some things that you just want new...I totally understand that.
Well said.
Yes, I am mentally prepared and can afford that :P The theoretical loss is probably a fraction of the profit I made from watches two years back 
I think it is fabulous. One of the greatest micro rotor movements, extremely rare officer's black, beautiful dial.
Well done, and I think this is a watch that can also be worn casually.
These are the decisions that makes us happy.
Great looking watch,
Wonderful movement, visually and technically,
Rare (these days) and beautiful officers' case,
You bought a piece of art, from a great house admired by many "who knows", and you can strap this art on and take it with you. perfect.
Congrats on a beautiful great purchase,
Wow, the hunter case back, the way it is finished! Love this movement, too. Well done, mon ami. Very well done.
Congrats! That's a beautiful watch!
I would have also been very tempted. A good friend got the green dial/yellow gold version last year. The hunter case back is very cool. Great watch I am sure you will enjoy! I think you can wear it fairly casually nowadays.
I didn't know a green dial yellow case version exists
These days, everybody is craving for the Salmon dial...
A collection is well balanced when it has also non-investment pieces, imho.
Very nice Chopard!
Congrats to it.
Congrats to it.
You gave me comfort :)
I unloaded the bulk of my portfolio two years ago and made a handsome profit, so I cannot complain
