The Chopard L.U.C XPS Forest Green is a sector-type basic dress watch that follows the current fashionable colors. The L.U.C refers to Louis-Ulysse Chopard, the watchmaker and founder of the brand in 1860. While the first launching of the L.U.C was in the 1990s, Chopard later released L.U.C XPS versions, with an ‘S’ for ‘seconds’.

Chopard logo and Chronometer marking is below 12 o’clock.
