The Chopard L.U.C XPS 1860 Officer takes us back to the time of pocket watches with a classic officer case in 40 millimeters
The Chopard L.U.C collection was launched in 1996 as a tribute to the brand’s founder, Louis-Ulysse Chopard. This collection marked a significant milestone for Chopard, as it represents the brand’s return to creating in-house movements. The launch of the L.U.C collection establishes Chopard as a serious player in the world of haute horlogerie, with a focus on craftsmanship and innovation.
.
The introduction of the L.U.C Caliber 1.96 in 1996 demonstrates the brand’s commitment to technical excellence, as this movement was designed, developed, and manufactured entirely in-house. Nowadays, there are a variety of complications, such as tourbillons, perpetual calendars, and GMT/dual-time functions. But also more simple, elegant dress watches.
.
Many models also hold prestigious certifications like the Poinçon de Genève and COSC chronometer certification, underscoring the precision and quality of these timepieces.
