As a preview of its Baselworld 2018 novelties, Chopard introduces a new interpretation of its classy L.U.C Quattro timepiece where the elegant rose gold case is matched to a silver-toned and vertical satin-brushed dial swept over by a set of blued hands.

The nine-day power-reserve display at 12 o’clock is counter-balanced by the  subdial at 6 o’clock containing both small seconds and a pointer-type date indication. Its graduations have been refined and simplified.

The minute circle is punctuated by two large 3 and 9 o’clock Arabic numerals, and by blued applied hour-markers. Their shape is an extrapolation of the Dauphine-fusée type hands typical of the L.U.C collections, enhanced in this instance with Super-LumiNova.

Water resistant to 50 metres / 165 feet, the 43 mm case features a satin-brushed caseband with a polished bezel.

The hand-engraved back case showcases the hand-wound movement, the COSC-certified L.U.C Calibre 98.01-L beating at 28,800 vph (4 Hz) and offering 9 days of power reserve thanks to four barrels (hence the name Quattro which is the Italian for the number Four).

The unconventional strap, made of woven-effect blue calfskin leather with an alligator leather lining, completes the contemporary style of the watch.
