That's a great interview because
The questions and answers seem real and not scripted by the PR department. I guess I really do need to get myself a Chopard.
I also like KFS' answer about the cars because it deflects incredulity from the friends as well as criticism from the wife. I once got up to 12 cars which was a very hard thing to rationalize OR explain. Now that I only have one for each day of the week it's easier ...

High Tea with the CEO: Karl-Friedrich Scheufele of CHOPARD
THE WATCH magazine – September 2014 Interview with Mr Karl-Friedrich Scheufele, Co-President of Chopard "High Tea with CEO" TWM: The Watch magazine CEO; Alfred Lung KFS: Karl-Friedrich Scheufele The Watch magazine is published in Hong Kong bi-monthly, wit...
My favorite question/answer:
TWM: Will we see a minute repeater watch in the L.U.C collection? KFS: Well, 2016 will be the 20th anniversary of the new L.U.C. Manufacturer. So I think it will be the right time to celebrate. 2016 could be an exciting year!!!! Best, CaliforniaJed

Fantastic quote. Thank you for sharing this article!
We both love same things: This watch is a must for you

I had to google what rutabagas is...
... so the cultural reference is totally lost on me. Try Blomman as it's supposed to be a "Swedish" turnip ;-) Best, Echi
Wow! What an interview...
A gentleman's gentleman! I like how the family is really involved. " I really like that countryside where I just can switch off and think of the next L.U.C. watch I want to make. " I enjoyed that reply on many levels! I'll be rereading this interview. Tha...

Great interview!
Very straight forward, very real. I've yet to acquire an LUC but perhaps it should be next. Thank you again, for the great interview Aloha, Bob
Chopard: Real Passion and Real Products for Real People
At Chopard, "the buck really stops here" with the family. Of course, every brand has a PR department but we find (the current Mrs MTF and me) that Chopard and Scheufele family always stand by their products. I've seen family members taking notes from clie...
Hey! You're a PuristS
Make your first LUC watch the LUC 1963 Chrono PuristS Edition It's in steel, which is a PuristS and affordable material for chronographs . The movement is unique to PuristS..... Regards, MTF
Ha, ha, yes, perhaps I will.
When I first joined this forum, I remember Kong suggesting to me that if I buy a Chopard, make it an LUC. Aloha, Bob
Here comes the party political broadcast
Officially, I have to say that all Chopard watches are the best they can make for the market positioning. That's not just the political broadcast but we (the current Mrs MTF and me) believe it. She has two rules for collecting watches and broke both of th...
Those two rules are basically in my book as well.
My wife, on the other hand ~ diamonds are good if tastefully done, much like the Happy Diamonds. She doesn't like it encrusted. Quartz or mechanical, she has no preference as long as it looks good and matches her jewelry collection. :-) The LUC PuristS ed...
