Data: Mar 31, 2008

Chopard L.U.C. watch line is extremely popular all over the world. The design of this new timepiece from Chopard is simple and very elegant at the same time. The brand has demonstrated the magnificent art simplicity by Chopard.

The L.U.C. XP is an amazing piece of craftsmanship. It is a very trendy watch because it is ultra-slim - it is considered to be very chic for the present time. Just imagine, the timepiece is 6.8 mm high and 39.5 mm wide!

And what is great about Chopard L.U.C. XP Ultra-Slim is that despite its slimness the functionality of the timepiece is on the high level.

The case of the watch measures 39.5mm X 6.8mm and uses the anti-reflective sapphire crystal and back.

Last year they presented the watch in yellow and white gold. Now the case is made of 18K rose gold. The watch is supplied with just over 3mm high Chopard in-house L.U.C. automatic movement. They manage to achieve a power reserve of 70 hours in such a thin timepiece through having two flattened barrels. The caliber is an amazing 3.3mm thick. The very precise mechanism produced by the manufacture has 29 jewels and is beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour.

The watch model is now available in rose gold or white gold with a slate-grey dial. The watch design is completed with four Arabic numerals, hands and applied hour-markers in 18K gold.

As for the strap, it is brown or black hand-sewn made of alligator leather enhanced with tone-on-tone stitching and fitted with an18K gold buckle engraved with 'Chopard'.

The Chopard Manufacture watchmakers in Fleurier do not stop working wonders by creating sophisticated watch models of the understated elegance.

The L.U.C. XP timepiece has become a classic within the L.U.C. collection when the watch was awarded with the 2006 Geneva Watchmaking Grand Prix in the ultra-thin watch category.
