(So does the dial!)
Where can I have a closed look / acquire? Best, Kari
Great pics Jed. Looking forward to seeing this in person. Regards, ED-209 ps - nice serial number :)
KFS's own example of the watch made a bit of a world tour and was shown at a few PuristS events toward the end of last year, but I don't know that there is an opportunity to see one otherwise. If you find yourself in Los Angeles I'll be glad to show you mine. :-) If you are near a Chopard boutique you may be able to see the Rose Gold 1963 Chronograph, which shares a case and very similar movement. (Modifications were made to the PuristS version with the elimination of the date.) Best, California
Kari, Selected Chopard boutiques may have both versions as there are 50 pieces of each colour. Actually, I know the current production batch is for PuristS who ordered through PuristSPro so they are all 'reserved' but the next batch may be available to walk-in customers. Try the Singapore boutique as you will soon visit there..... Geneva boutique is the global flagship store. London boutique has a special relationship since a couple of the early owners are UK-based. Costa Mesa boutique in Califo
Can someone tell me is there any regular production Chopard luc in 42mm that I can reference to try for size? 42mm is usually too big for me although the short lugs shown on these pics may mean I have a chance... I went to the Chopard boutique in Singapore but they don't have the rose gold 1963 chronograph on display and mentioned they only bring in for customers who order. The movement and dial of this PuristS edition is to die for. No date, steel, superbly finished movement with German silver
Many of the newer model L.U.C cases are 42mm. The 1937 is 42mm and a very similar size/shape case, but with flat sides rather than the rounded sides of this case. One more movement pic, just for fun! Best, CaliforniaJed This pic quite literally says it all.
