Chopard L.U.C Chrono One Flyback Chronograph

 A smaller case, a more modern design, and a self-produced chronometer-certified mechanical movement... The new Chopard LUC series Chrono One Flyback watch has many things that will make you happy, not to mention that it is made of stainless steel The timepiece made of material, how is it, is there any heartbeat? Of course, it must have some unsatisfactory parts, such as the limited release of 250 pieces... Considering that the previous styles are only available in precious metals and the size is larger, so if this new version of the chronograph I will not be surprised if the watch will be very popular. Let's take a closer look at it below.

You may or may not remember the previous generations of L.U.C Chrono One Flyback watches, but that’s okay. The following editor will briefly introduce some of them as a basis for comparing the old and the new.replicas panerai As mentioned above, the previous generations of works only provided precious metal material styles, and the style should be more traditional. Of course, they are also very good works, but for the taste of the editor, they will look a bit too old, and the price is too expensive... and this new work still uses many previous design elements, but in The material has been downgraded pleasantly.

First of all, the steel case of this watch is smaller and thinner, measuring 42mm x 13.42mm (previously 44mm x 14.06mm). Although literally these numbers are slightly different, the look and feel of it on the wrist has changed significantly. Although it is not a small watch in every sense, it is obviously better in proportion when it is matched with semi-formal clothing.

Like the previous precious metal styles, all the upper surfaces of the case, including the bezel, lugs and buttons, have been polished, while the middle area of ​​the case is decorated with a vertical satin drawing process to create There is a very high-grade contrast. Its case back again combines these two finishing techniques, and the highly polished inner ring is marked with the hand-engraved "Chrono One Flyback" and "Limited Edition 250" words. This watch has a waterproof rating of 100 meters, and it can be worn for a while to swim in the swimming pool. Turning my eyes back to the dial, everything is so low-key and elegant, which is completely different from the slightly fancy styles before. Its main background is slate gray, and it is decorated with a manual vertical satin drawing process. Although it is a monotone theme, depending on the angle of incidence of the light, it will become brighter or darker, with a variety of gestures, very charming.

In previous models, the chronograph sub-dial was filled with contrasting colors, but for this watch, Chopard cleverly chose to use rhodium-plated scale rings. It is lower-key, but equally clear, and complements the same rhodium-plated hour markers. The hour and minute hands are still the familiar Toffee hands throughout the L.U.C series, which are coated with Super-LumiNova luminous material to ensure readability in low-light environments to a certain extent. According to the convention of this style design, the calendar window still appears between 4 and 5 o'clock as scheduled. I believe that many people will complain about this. But it does add a little practicality, and the black background means it gets along well with the dial.

The watch is equipped with the well-known LUC 03.03-L automatic movement movement. The previous versions also used this movement. It has several Chopard patents, and its appearance looks It is also quite good-looking. The movement is assembled from 359 parts and is entirely manufactured by Chopard independently, and has passed the COSC Observatory certification. Its oscillating weight is made of 22k gold and has a hollow design that can provide a 60-hour power reserve.

As mentioned in its name, this movement also has a flyback function, which means that the wearer can save the manual manual reset operation and start the next time immediately. The movement is as well polished as always, and its plywood is decorated with Geneva stripes. If there are shortcomings, there are too many inscriptions above, which are completely unnecessary.

The brand matched it with a slate gray alligator leather strap matching the color of the dial, with brown alligator leather lining and a polished stainless steel folding clasp. In general,replicas relojes suizos aaa the new Chrono One Flyback chronograph is a very good work, and it is also a pleasing evolution for Chopin. Its price is 26,100 Swiss francs. Although it is not cheap, it also reflects the fact that Chopard's L.U.C department has completed vertical integration.
