Sportwatch battle--rank'em!
Greetings Purists, I recently acquired a Chopard LUC Sport 2000, and am extremely impressed with all aspects of the watch--movement, casework, dial, hands, amazing markers, beautiful finishing, outstanding bracelet. At any rate, having this fine watch mak...

. . . entitled to frame the question as he pleases . . . anyone is equally entitled to post a response asking for clarification, but there is no need to bring an axe to the party . . . at least, not over a matter like this ;-). Fwiw, I feel there's a subt...
