I suspect many collectors are just waiting...
... reports from early buyers about the accuracy, performance and, most important of all, reliability of this new caliber before jumping on it.
Visited the Chopard boutique in Sydney
It’s been a long time since I’ve went looking at watches. My friend and watch buddy Andrea invited me to his new workplace at Chopard to view the beauties. I spotted quite a few rarities there. If times recover for me, I’m highly tempted to get a 8 Hertz ...
Indeed, it does look like a nautilus or RO
I’m eyeing the 8 Hertz, that is one beast of a watch. Weighs like a feather and very well finished. I wore my GP laureato today to the store.
Thanks Fab
My friend is an Italian, I believe from Roma. Cool guy, i think you will like him.
Thanks for the pictures and the report.
Very underrated watches with some really interesting features.
I really like the 8 Hertz experimental piece
Very under-rated. It was like stepping back in time, when the watch industry still innovated exciting calibres.

+1
Yes even I am watching and waiting. But after today, I realized resistence is futile.
I love it
The steel quality is vastly diff. It feels like a jewellery grade of steel. I’ll likely purchase one when times recover for me. So beautiful!=D
Yes I did
Both what feels like jewellery quality. U must feel it. I tried to gold one as well in the 36mm. Hefty piece which I really like. ...
Thank you, Cookies. The AE titanium looks great, with grey coloured date wheel which is not too obtrusive in the grey dial.
An excellent offering from Chopard 👍🏻
You’ve got excellent taste
I’m eyeing the titanium 8 Hertz AE after Holdenchamp posted a pic of it. It is gorgeous
Tourbillion will be my end all watch
If i had this LUC tourbillon, i think I will stop collecting. I took a video of the tourbillon in action. So thin, so elegant. I love it. Do you love it?=D=D
Hope you get it someday.
I agree the tourbillon would be a great end piece collection
Wow thank you for sharing Cookies! Many great choice in your selection but I really love the Alpine 8Hz. Also based on our friend Champ here it seems to be an amazingly accurate movement…
I was surprised to see other 8Hz movement as I had not realized they had other reference with it…
=D
I’m taking a close look at the 8 Hertz now. Times are hard on me for these 2 months but I hope things recover.
I can second Justin's observations.. it is like having a quartz watch with sweeping seconds... very accurate!
Mine lost 2 seconds in a month. 8hz movement was introduced back in 2012 with this model if I am not mistaken.. ...
Great report
That tourbillon is tops! Love it. Actually that all good alpine is sharp too and I don't like all gold much. No date as well.
Thanks for sharing this intel, my friend!
I love the unique dial texture and overall look of that titanium Alpine Eagle very much
