Very nice indeed!
I'm surprised the plated the entire dial the gold color. If you look at the rose gold dial variant, there are "silvered" parts of the dial in the channel guilloche around the railroad track on the outer circumference of the dial. Thus, the rose gold and silver dial have a nice two-tone look. I wonder if this version with the yellow gold dial would've benefitted.
Either way! What a nice dial!
New LUC 1860 collab with Revolution.

Another beautiful iteration after the salmon from WW23 and the mint one
from canceled Only watch.

About the dial...
From the description: " Riding high on this resurgence of popularity comes the latest Revolution collaboration: a Chopard L.U.C 1860 in Lucent Steel with an untreated gold dial. "
The rose gold dial is also a full gold dial, just with plating treatments.
I think the dial would look good with the white plating treatment similar to where the white treatments are on the rose gold dial. Maybe they tried "my suggestion" and ultimately decided to go to an all gold dial without the white treatments.
I agree it’s not very original - but at the same time they have a real winner and a near-perfect watch on their hands with the no date dial. Not surprised they are going to iterate on it.
They could have gone blue or green, which I feel would have been even worse.
Love the colour
Reminds me of the UJ Champagne dial that I was looking at but never pulled the trigger on. Although I will say, surprising that a purist-leaning collab would print "revolution edition" on the back crystal...
automatic
the word "automatic" in the small seconds sub dial is so unnecessary on this watch
Well, zooming in, I like it. But…
Zooming out, I’m a disappointed customer… They ״sold” me the WG Salmon as a special limited iteration of an older classic watch but that Salmon got a salmonella and we start seeing how they milk the cow… the unique factor is gone, just another line, nice ...
I see what you’re saying. Though I don’t think
the salmon SS was billed as a limited edition. Perhaps they should have stuck with the salmon in 36,5 and offered next iterations in a 39mm case.
I do not believe the LUC 1860 was presented as limited
I had watched a few videos with Karl-friedrich Scheufele at the release and my recollection was that the limitation is by how many they can physically make. Not that it will be a specific run. I could be wrong. Where I'd be annoyed is making LE revolution...
