Sun kissed Chopard LUC 8HF π
While a time only three hander (plus date) I find the watch has a certain drivers appeal. The high frequency (57,600 vph) movement, the fantastic legibility (at a glance) and the reasonable weight due to the titanium case all contribute to it.
OK - watch movement frequency is still bested by any lorry but at least itβs double the speed of the established standard π
Any other Chopards out and about today?
Not sure about that π
Was the Tech Twist era at Chopard when this one came out, so quite some experimentation ππ»
I was half-joking but the short stubby lugs bear some resemblance to those of the new Urban JΓΌrgensen watches that came out this week. Cool watch either way!
Oh I got that π
Btw. did a more extensive post on it, where the case and lugs are better visible some weeks ago. Hereβs the link: www.watchprosite.com
Very cool to me for sure πππ»
Not quite sure what Chopard is intending to do with the movement going forward but I highly applaud them on the boldness of giving an 8Hz watch a try πππ»
That really is a lovely looking Chopard LUC 8HF
I really like the texture of the dial and the simple and clean look of the whole watch plus the nice contrast of the second counter against the colour of the dial. Wear and enjoy it in good health.

I see it the same way πππ»
The way that the details fit together into a coherent whole is very good indeed ππ»
Thanks ππ»
Thanks ππ»
The red accents make it somewhat sportier π
But itβs a very nice combination ππ»
Plus the seconds being offset, creates interest. Excellent strap choice, is it aftermarket?
This is actually the original one π
A rare occasion where I use the watch on an OEM strap π The offset crown and small seconds used to be a theme for Chopard for a while ππ»
The combination really works IMHO πππ»
Not in the classical elegant sense but in a slightly more avant-garde way ππ»
Fantastic. Much love for that one ! ππ
I've wondered in the past - does the uber high beat come with a shorter maintenance cycle?
So far notβ¦
I have to admit I donβt wear it that often to really know π€·π»ββοΈ
That's great ! π
A short maintenance cycle was what kept me from pulling the trigger when it came out.
Ha, shoulda just shot from the hip ! : )
