The Chopard LUC XPS is so beautiful.
Btw very nice pics, did you made them? How comes that there are no light reflections on the watches? Amazing!!!
...or at least this is what I am expecting )) .
With my photo set-up I definitely try to avoid (or control) any unwanted reflections.
If you don’t mind me asking, what made the Chopard the winner? Any thoughts on the FF? I’m particularly interested in your thoughts because so much of your 2024 purchases lined up with watches I had felt something for myself.
The proportions are great for my wrist and the movement is a real piece of high horology. The overall package really did it for me and I also feel that this is the best value high horology watch of the year ! And I believe that it is just good looking !! As for the BP, I always wanted to have a FF in my (heavy diver inspired) collection. The new 42.5 mm case is for me the perfect size for this watch and the use of a brushed Ti case was another plus.
