Experience the craft of Chopard in the L.U.C (ref. 161896-5003), a contemporary classic shaped by careful watchmaking know-how. The exterior is thoughtfully executed: crafted in rose gold and measuring 39 mm in diameter, with a thickness of 9 mm, defined by a round silhouette. The caseback is open, and the crystal is sapphire, delivering water resistance to 3000 meters. At a glance, the dial balances texture and clarity: a grey tone, framed by stick / dot hour markers, and alpha hands. At its heart beats a proven engine: the L.U.C 96.09-L caliber. Released in a constrained run, appealing to focused collectors. First released in 2012. With considered ergonomics, it feels composed during extended wear. Brushed and polished elements play with light to emphasize crisp geometry. For buyers researching specifications and real-world impressions, this reference stands out for coherent design, dependable mechanics, and lasting relevance within modern horology.
