L.U.C Time Traveler One Black
Interpreting a vision of Fine Watchmaking open to the world

As freedom of travel becomes a reality once more for some, Chopard brings a new design and lightweight wearability to its most prestigious watch for globetrotters: the L.U.C Time Traveler One Black, a worldtime watch crafted by the artisans of Chopard Manufacture, produced as a limited edition of 250 pieces, according to the most sophisticated Fine Watchmaking criteria. It introduces a monochrome style ideal for the fast-paced lives of global citizens.

Along with the new L.U.C. GMT One Black, it is the world’s first travel watch in ceramised grade 5 titanium, a material that is both ultra-light and very hard-wearing. Beating inside this timepiece is a movement of exceptional quality and invention: calibre L.U:C 01-05-L, created entirely in-house. This stunning fusion of innovative technology and traditional handcraft gives rise to the ultimate timepiece of a new generation of gentlemen travellers.

World time within reach

The L.U.C. Time Traveler One Black timepiece is the latest interpretation by Chopard Manufacture of one of watchmaking’s noblest travel complications: the worldtimer, showing the time in 24 zones around the world simultaneously. A symbol of travel at its most sophisticated and elegant, the worldtimer is also a valuable tool for those doing business in multiple corners of the world at any one time.

The L.U.C Time Traveler One Black achieves the feat of displaying complex information with absolute clarity via a series of concentrically arranged discs. A central date disc, indicated by a discreet hand, is surrounded by a chapter display for the hours and minutes of the local time zone, with Dauphine hands in the elegant style characterising the L.U.C collection, adjusted by a crown positioned at 2 o’clock.

The latter serves to adjust the time in the main time zone. A second crown at 4 o’clock is used to turn the disc bearing the reference cities of 24 time zones, synchronised on the city disc with local time. Wherever the wearer finds himself at a given moment, when the city for the local time zone is set to the 12 o’clock position, all the time zones around the globe will be correctly displayed.

An innovative and modern material

Chopard launched the L.U.C Time Traveler One to wide acclaim in 2016, offering an elegantly modern take on the worldtimer tradition. The new L.U.C. Time Traveler One Black adds an even more contemporary twist with its sleek monochrome palette and lightweight wearability. The result: a sporty travel watch suited to any occasion.

The use of ceramised grade 5 titanium for the L.U.C Time Traveler One Black marks a world first for travel watches and reflects Chopard’s ongoing commitment to harnessing the most innovative materials in the advancement of Fine Watchmaking.

Used in areas such as aerospace, automotive and medical component manufacturing, ceramised titanium is obtained by oxidising surface layers of titanium at extreme temperatures using electroplasma technology. This process improves the metal’s hardness – 700 Vickers (Hv) – along with its friction coefficient as well its wear and corrosion resistance. Ceramised titanium is also highly biocompatible.

Monochrome style

The ceramised titanium case of the L.U.C Time Traveler One Black is matched with a monochrome dial featuring a hand-applied vertical satin-brushed finish. Completing the look is a matching black strap in fully vegan rubber, crafted with an intricate fabric-like pattern.

Made in Switzerland, the strap offers huge flexibility of usage thanks to its resistance to the effects of water or sweat, its high durability and its comfort on the wrist. In keeping with Chopard’s commitment to sustainable luxury, the strap has been subjected to stringent environmental tests including REACH certification for protecting human health and the environment from chemicals.

Certified precision around the world

The L.U.C Time Traveler One Black timepiece is powered by the acclaimed worldtimer movement L.U.C 01.05-L, first unveiled in 2016. Made in-house at Chopard Manufacture in Fleurier, Switzerland, this self-winding integrated-construction movement has a 60-hour power reserve and beats at 28,800 vph (4 Hz).

Reflecting the high standards of the L.U.C collection, it is meticulously hand-finished, with beautifully chamfered bridges and Côtes de Geneve decoration visible through the display case-back.

For Chopard Manufacture, chronometric performance is as important to Fine Watchmaking as the beauty, finish and functionality of the watch.

Like all L.U.C timepieces carrying a seconds indication, the L.U.C Time Traveler One Black is therefore “Chronometer”-certified by the COSC for accuracy and performance.

25 years of excellence, innovation and tradition

In 2021, Chopard Manufacture is proud to mark the 25th anniversary of its founding in Fleurier. In 1996, when Swiss watchmaking was still emerging from struggles of the quartz crisis, Chopard Co-President Karl-Friedrich Scheufele committed to defending and restoring the crafts and techniques that had been passed down through generations of watchmakers. In the village of Fleurier, where watchmaking heritage goes back over 200 years, the Chopard Manufacture would become a force for the finest techniques in traditional watchmaking, hand finishing and artistic crafts. At the same time, it has been able to innovate across the full range of modern watch production operations, from case-making to movement development, advanced metallurgy and component manufacture. In particular, it has put chronometry – the ultimate measure of horological excellence – at the heart of all its activities.

It is thanks to this thriving hub of unique skills, and Karl-Friedrich Scheufele’s vision of what a modern Fine Watchmaking manufacture could be, that Chopard has been able to create timepieces that are truly valued by connoisseurs – gentlemen who recognise that passion and artistry will combine to create extraordinary masterpieces.

CHOPARD – L.U.C Perpetual Chrono Titanium 45 Edition

 CHOPARD – L.U.C Perpetual Chrono Titanium 45 Limited Edition 2021

L.U.C. Perpetual Chrono

Lightweight, versatile and precise: a very modern grand complication combining extremely accurate chronograph and perpetual calendar functions

Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

The combination of perpetual calendar and hand-wound chronograph has long been regarded by connoisseurs as one of the highest expressions of the watchmaker’s craft, which Chopard mastered five years ago with the presentation of its first L.U.C Perpetual Chrono timepiece. The latter houses the L.U.C 03.10-L movement, a veritable horological marvel notable for its integration of the most prestigious chronograph and perpetual calendar achievements. 

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

Carrying both “Chronometer certification” and the esteemed Poinçon de Genève, this masterpiece is now transformed with a lightweight grade 5 titanium case corresponding to the lifestyle of the contemporary gentleman. Combined with an artfully pared-back aesthetic, the new L.U.C Perpetual Chrono, produced as a limited edition of 20 pieces, offers a truly modern approach to classical Fine Watchmaking.

A lightweight and versatile material

One of very few titanium perpetual calendar chronographs on the market, the new L.U.C Perpetual Chrono timepiece presents an innovative alternative for collectors seeking options besides gold or platinum, while retaining the sense of precious rarity found in watchmaking at its most prestigious.

Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

Crucially, titanium’s lightweight nature ensures the 45-millimeter timepiece is an ergonomic and comfortable watch for everyday wear, while the short lugs make it a perfect fit for any wrist.

A high-precision perpetual calendar chronograph movement

The L.U.C Perpetual Chrono is powered by the L.U.C 03.10-L movement, testifying to exceptional craftsmanship. This beautiful and complex mechanism was entirely developed and produced in Chopard Manufacture’s workshops and gave rise to four invention patents.

Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

The movement’s architecture is based on a construction reflecting the highest level of execution. At the heart of this mechanism, a column wheel precisely coordinates the functions of the chronograph, while a patented vertical coupling clutch ensures actuation that is light to the touch but utterly exact.

The flyback function allows immediate reuse of the chronograph without the need to stop and reset. When the zero-reset pusher is pressed, however, the instantaneous movement of the counters and central sweep seconds hand is managed by patented progressive-contact hammers that guarantee optimal precision.

Finally, a semi-instantaneous jumping minute counter ensures the precise display of chronograph minutes. All chronograph functions are highlighted on the dial by red details.

Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

The patented perpetual calendar mechanism, crafted so that its displays integrate perfectly with the chronograph functions, is no less inventive. In particular, the high precision orbital moon phase, a showpiece of the dial design at 6 o’clock, is accurate to just a day’s deviation every 122 years.

The best guarantees of excellence

Testifying to its stature among the finest feats of Fine Watchmaking, the L.U.C. Perpetual Chrono timepiece is doubly certified as a “Chronometer” by the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC) – denoting superior performance for accuracy and reliability under varied conditions – as well as by the Poinçon de Genève, synonymous with the highest levels of hand finishing and aesthetic quality throughout the wristwatch.

Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

The movement, exhibiting a multitude of opulent hand finishes across its complex plates and bridges, is visible through the watch’s display case-back.

Traditional watchmaking, contemporary style

The elegant dial features a wide, twin-aperture instantaneous date display at 12 o’clock, with indications for the days of the week, the month, position in the leap year cycle and day/night display with a large orbital moon-phase at 6 o’clock.

Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

This highly complex but perfectly legible dial is a work of art in itself. The slate grey surface, created via a galvanic treatment on an 18-carat gold base, is decorated with a sunburst guilloché pattern.

Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

With its subtle decoration, pared-back hour-markers and palette of soft greys with sporty bursts of red for the chronograph indications, the L.U.C Perpetual Chrono in grade 5 titanium offers a contemporary take on Fine Watchmaking in keeping with its lightweight casing.

A grey strap in soft, nubuck calfskin further strengthens the sense of a Grand Complication watch that is understated and versatile, yet utterly distinct in its finesse and beauty.

CHOPARD – LADIES Happy Sport Happy Ocean Steel/Gold Automatic 2021
 

Happy Ocean
A diamond wave

The seductively feminine and glamorous yet technical Happy Sport watch collection takes the plunge into the azure waters of the South Seas. Bedecked in blue-grey livery with waves rippling across it, the aptly named Happy Ocean asserts its vocation as an ultra-chic sports watch.

Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

Beating at the heart of the 40 mm case and water-resistant to 300 metres is the Chopard 01.01-C movement with automatic winding, while the dial is graced with the Happy Sport collections’ famous dancing diamonds.

Nautical by nature

Behind its glamorous allure expressed through ethical gold and steel, Happy Ocean conceals authentic underwater capabilities. As expected from diver's watches, it is equipped with a blue-grey unidirectional rotating bezel bearing a luminescent marker.  

Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

The gold-rimmed hour-markers on the dial are also luminescent, as are the wide hands. Finally, the screw-down crown in 18-carat rose gold contributes to the 300-metre waterresistance of the case.

The grey-blue dial with waves rippling across it – creating a matt on bright blue effect – is matched by the bezel and the calfskin leather strap. Reflecting the hues of the South Seas, this pervasive colour theme is further enhanced by the twirling of five dancing diamonds, resembling small bubbles rising to the surface or sparkling fish gliding across the dial’s distinctive wave motif.

This aquatic ballet is orchestrated by a movement with automatic winding, the 01.01-C calibre, entirely developed and produced in the Maison’s watchmaking workshops and ensuring a generous 60-hour power reserve. The watch is also available on a blue-grey NATO strap.

CHOPARD – Mille Miglia Race 2020 Edition

 CHOPARD – Mille Miglia Race 42 Edition 2020

Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

Official timekeeper of the world’s most beautiful car race
A hint of Dolce Vita on the starting line of the 2020 ‘Mille Miglia’

Brescia, Thursday 22nd October 2020 – For the 32nd consecutive year, Chopard lined up at the start of this new edition of the 1000 Miglia rally as main partner and official timekeeper. Traditionally organised in May, the car race regarded as "the world’s most beautiful" is being held this year from October 22nd to 25th, in compliance with the prevailing public health regulations.

Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

This calendar upheaval did not dampen the enthusiasm of the more than 400 crews who set out to conquer the 1,618 kilometres of the course – all under the protective, encouraging and watchful gaze of friend of the Maison, Jacky Ickx, who presided over the festivities organised by Chopard. The evening before, during an intimate dinner at La Sosta in Brescia, "Mister Le Mans" unveiled the timepieces from the Mille Miglia Collection created by the in-house Artisans in homage to the race.

Since becoming the 1000 Miglia‘s principal partner and official timekeeper in 1988, Chopard has produced a new Mille Miglia timepiece every year. Over the decades, these have come to be highly sought-after collectors’ items, as much for their rarity – all are made in strictly limited numbers – as for the way they perfectly express the inextricable link between the worlds of classic cars and mechanical sports watches.

Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

A chronograph is an essential piece of operational equipment for any serious rally contestant, and every team taking part in the 1000 Miglia is presented with the Mille Miglia Race Edition chronograph before they arrive at the start line. The Chopard Mille Miglia 2020 Race Edition is issued in two versions powered by a chronometer-certified movement: 1,000 in bead-blasted DLC-treated stainless steel and 250 in two-tone bead-blasted DLC-treated stainless steel and ethical 18-carat rose gold.  

Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

The Mille Miglia 2020 Race Edition revisits the full-black theme with a bead-blasted, Diamond-Like-Carbon (DLC)-treated case, a matt black varnished dial and contrasting ‘vintage yellow’ markings. The combination adds up to a retro look that appears entirely at home at the steering wheel of a classic automobile, yet which works equally well for regular day or evening wear and is sure to appeal to younger enthusiasts becoming increasingly involved in events such as the 1000 Miglia.

Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

Indeed, as Chopard Co-President, avid classic car enthusiast and 31-time Mille Miglia competitor Karl-Friedrich Scheufele explains: “We had our younger clients in mind when we created this year’s watch. Younger generations are increasingly interested in classic cars, and we’re seeing newly married couples as well as father-and-son tandems taking part in events such as the Mille Miglia. This year’s watch is very much intended for them.”

 Functionality meets legibility and comfort

Partly inspired by the satin black and ‘gunmetal’ finishes often seen on vintage cars, the DLC finish gives the 42-mm, bead-blasted stainless steel case a highly attractive appearance that is also scratch-resistant and non-reflective. Comfort and a perfect fit are assured by the use of short strap lugs, while the practical nature of the timepiece is demonstrated by the extreme legibility resulting from the strong contrast between the matt black dial surface and the vintage yellow minute track and tachymeter scale.

Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

These features make this timepiece ideal for the type of speed and distance calculations often called for during special rally stages. The Arabic numerals, also in vintage yellow, are filled with ultra-bright Super-LumiNova®enabling the watch to be more easily read in low-light conditions, while the counter subdials are clearly marked to show 60 seconds, 30 minutes and 12 hours. 

Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

A bold date window is located between the 4 and 5 o’clock positions, while a hint of red on the tip of the seconds’ hand – together with the subtle inclusion of the famous red 1000 Miglia direction arrow – are the indications on the dial side that this chronograph pays tribute to what Enzo Ferrari called ‘the most beautiful race in the world.’

One watch, two versions

Two versions of the Chopard Mille Miglia 2020 Race Edition will be available: an all-black model in a 1,000-piece limited series, plus a further run of 250 fitted with bezels made from contrasting bead-blasted 18-carat ethical rose gold. Both of them are powered by a chronometer-certified mechanical movement with automatic winding enabling a comfortable 42-hour power reserve.

Turning the watch over reveals a sapphire crystal case-back bordered by the 1000 Miglia logo and the unique edition number of each piece while the perfect finishing touch is set by a black, perforated leather strap with tone-on-tone stitching and a rubber lining featuring Chopard‘s signature tread pattern based on that of a 1960s Dunlop racing tyre.
