Khimji’s Watches showcases Chopard L.U.C XPS Poinçon de Genève timepiece
A discreet, ultra-thin model made in platinum and featuring a grey-blue dial, the Chopard L.U.C XPS timepiece is produced in a 25-piece limited edition and complies with the criteria of the “Poinçon de Genève”, of which the hallmark is hand-engraved on the back of each watch. Since 1886, the “Poinçon de Genève” has been guaranteeing an exceptional standard of quality by requiring all manufacturers wishing to stamp it on their timepieces to duly perfect all the parts composing such calibres. It thereby ensures a high level of precision of the products bearing it, while perpetuating manual watchmaking skills. To power this new L.U.C XPS, the Chopard watchmakers have equipped it with the in-house made L.U.C Calibre 96.01-L. This choice has enabled them to achieve the feat of accommodating within an ultra-thin case a self-winding movement fitted with two barrels ensuring a 65-hour power reserve and driving central hour and minute hands along with small seconds at 6 o’clock and the date at 3 o’clock. The beauty of this exceptional timepiece is accentuated by the open case-back providing a chance to admire the Chopard L.U.C 96.01-L calibre equipped with the L.U.C collection’s characteristic integrated rotating module: the micro-rotor. Mr Madhursinh Jesrani, General Manager, Khimji’s Watches comments: “This platinum timepiece with its pure, elegant lines features a blue sunburst satin-brushed dial bearing the “Poinçon de Genève” logo at 12 o’clock. Its elegance is accentuated by its silver-toned hands echoing the remarkably restrained hour-markers. To further personalise this edition, the case-back of each model has been individually hand-engraved with the “Poinçon de Genève” logo. Surely this timepiece is an epitome of perfection and symbolises Chopard’s deep-felt attachment to watchmaking tradition”.
