Chopard Unveils L.U.C Heritage Grand Cru

Relying on its finest watchmaking skills, this year Chopard presents a novelty in the industry under the name of L.U.C Heritage Grand Cru. Ultra-slim and elegant, this watch features a “form” chronometer – which makes it an unconventional piece. Taking the shape of a tonneau, this L.U.C timepiece is wound by an automatic movement conceived in the same manner as an exceptional wine.

Its excellent craftsmanship is attested by the “Poinçon de Genève” quality hallmark like a Grand Cru wine is classified and certified. An ideal combination of form and function, this stunning timepiece is the perfect fit on the wrist, especially for the men interested in both exceptional watches and wines.

Besides highlighting the house’s high level of watchmaking expertise, this timepiece pays tribute to the historical pocket watches that forged the renown of Chopard through its elements, from the white porcelain dial and the black Roman numerals on it to the harmonious functions of the seconds and minute track.

As for the shape, it recalls the oak barrels from the forests of Bertrange, Jupille and Tronçais, where great vintages are transformed into exceptional wines. With this vision in mind, the L.U.C Heritage Grand Cru simply becomes an authentic vintage Haute Horlogerie creation that honors the fundamentals of traditional watchmaking respectfully exercised by Chopard Manufacture.
