In its continued commitment to precision and fine craftsmanship, Chopard unveils an all-new LUC Lunar One version - crafted in a material worthy of the caliber: 950 platinum. The perpetual calendar model with astronomical moonphase display also features a deep blue sunray-patterned multi-level dial. The unique moonphase subdial at 6 o'clock depicts a dark blue sky studded with stars of the northern hemisphere, as well as an orbital moon that imitates the path of the evening star. The display o!ers such astronomical precision that it will take 122 years to accumulate a one-day time lag compared to the actual moon. The 43mm platinum watch with 355-part movement is equipped with a micro-rotor and carries the Hallmark of Geneva. It is also a COSC-certified chronometer. Just 100 pieces will be made of the Luc Lunar One.

Complications prove no hindrance to Chopard, but rather characterize its craftsmanship as the brand has sought to perfect watchmaking since its establishment in 1996. Its flying tourbillon movement has been awarded a patent due to the meticulous precision that it possesses; the mechanism functioning to automatically bring the second hand to a halt when the crown is pulled out for time-setting.This improved accuracy achieved in the very smallest fragment of time is just one example of Chopard's fixation with precision. Evidenced by its array of exceptional watches, collections such as the Métiers d'art, epitomize the finest of horological craftsmanship and artistry. Personified by layered fragments, the plants, birds and polar bears found on these timepieces pay tribute to the beauty of nature.The Poinçon de Genève collection further infuses longstanding, independent standards of watchmaking into contemporary design to guarantee quality, and the limited-edition L.U.C Full Strike Sapphire watch unveiled by Chopard in 2022 equally flaunts excellence through modern design. Boasting a sapphire case and bridge to the minute repeater, this watch not only ticks with timely melody but is complexly composed of a 533-part movement.
