L.U.C 1860 Flying Tourbillon
Since its launch, I have been waiting to see real hands-on photos of this wonderful timepiece and here comes a hands-on review by Bilal Khan on Teddy Baldassarre's website with some gorgeous photos.
Enjoy !

I have to say…
I was thinking exactly the same thing - and in a stealthy platinum or WG 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Very nicely done!

Probably my favorite Chopard right now...
...and one of the few tourbillons that I don't mind seeing on the front, it is so well-integrated to the overall design.
I really like this new release. The solid case back and the dial are just perfect to me. The only thing i would change on this case in general would be to not use 18mm straps
I understand your point.
But as Chopard uses a 19/16mm strap on my 40mm Quattro Spirit 25, it’s at least consistent to go for an 18/16mm strap for a 36.5mm case.
VC’s Cornes de Vache has a 38.5mm case with a 20/18mm strap and I must say that I personally prefer the ratio of my two other watches (QS25 and LF micro rotor): 40mm case with 19/16mm strap.
And when trying on the steel/salmon dial 1860, I wasn’t bothered by the 18mm strap. Best.

Good point on the case size. For me personally anything 38mm and up I prefer 20mm strap on my wrist. But what a watch either way!
