Description

L.U.C XPS 1860 Officer
Ref. Number: 161242-0001
The L.U.C XPS 1860 Officer harbours a wealth of secrets and symbols. On one side, an exceptionally refined hand-guilloché dial. On the other, an equally guilloché officer-type back cover that opens to reveal the ultra-thin L.U.C 96.01-L movement. Both engravings feature a honeycomb motif. Attired in yellow gold, this luxury watch bearing both COSC and Poinçon de Genève certifications adorns the wrist with a blend of distinction and discretion.

Entirely developed, produced and assembled in Chopard's Haute Horlogerie workshops and chronometer-certified by the COSC, the L.U.C 96.01-L mechanical self-winding movement is the first calibre developed by Chopard Manufacture in 1996. It beats at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz) and has a 65-hour power reserve thanks to Twin technology, a system invented by Chopard that combines two coaxial barrels. The latter represents a remarkable technical feat given the extreme thinness of the movement, which is just 3.3 mm-thick. This movement bearing the Poinçon de Genève quality hallmark is wound by means of a 22-carat gold micro-rotor.

Identity

A blend of heritage and modernity

In the midst of the 1990s, when traditional watchmaking was striving to recover from the sweeping influence of the quartz crisis, Chopard Co-President, Karl-Friedrich Scheufele created a workshop responsible for developing the first in-house calibre to pay tribute to the legacy of the Maison's founder, Louis-Ulysse Chopard. Named L.U.C 96.01-L, the automatic micro-rotor movement, versatile and unrivalled at the time, marked the birth of Chopard Manufacture and the L.U.C. luxury watch collection.
