Quick TakeThis Chopard Flying T Twin isn't just a watch, it's a wrist-worn masterpiece where haute horology meets haute couture. Clad in ethical rose gold, this limited edition piece whispers luxury with its guilloché dial, a mesmerizing dance of light and shadow that evokes the precision of a honeycomb. Peeking through at 6 o'clock, the flying tourbillon isn't merely there to keep time honest; it's the beating heart of the watch, a kinetic sculpture showcasing Chopard's watchmaking prowess. It’s a statement piece but never shouts; the watch exudes a quiet confidence. It’s the kind of timepiece that catches the eye of discerning individuals—those who appreciate the artistry within as much as the polished exterior. It is a marvel of micro-engineering, boasting a movement so slim it could have been sculpted by the gods of horology. This isn't a watch for every occasion, it's a watch for the occasion.

DescriptionThe Chopard L.U.C Flying T Twin, Reference Number 161978-5001, is a limited edition timepiece, with only 50 units produced, encased in 18-karat ethical rose gold. The case measures 40 millimeters in diameter and has a slender profile of 7.20 millimeters in thickness, ensuring a sleek presence on the wrist. It has a water resistance of up to 30 meters, suitable for withstanding splashes or brief immersion in water but not designed for swimming or diving. The dial is presented in a ruthenium gray color, achieved through a galvanic treatment, and is enhanced by a hand-crafted guilloché finish featuring a honeycomb pattern at the center. Gold-plated Arabic numerals and hour markers stand out against the intricate dial, while the 18-karat rose gold crown complements the overall design. The watch is protected by a glare-proofed, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal on the front and features a see-through sapphire crystal case-back, offering a view of the intricate movement within.

The timepiece is powered by the L.U.C 96.24-L self-winding mechanical movement, which boasts a power reserve of approximately 65 hours, thanks to the L.U.C Twin Technology that utilizes two stacked barrels. This movement, bearing the prestigious Poinçon de Genève quality hallmark, operates at a frequency of 3.5 Hz, equivalent to 25,200 vibrations per hour. It comprises 189 parts and 25 jewels, with a movement thickness of just 3.30 millimeters and a diameter of 27.40 millimeters. The movement's aesthetic appeal is enhanced by bridges adorned with Côtes de Genève and a circular-grained mainplate, a four-spoke balance wheel with micro-regulator screws, and a flat balance spring. The watch is secured to the wrist with a black alligator leather strap featuring a matt square plate and hand-sewn matching tones, lined with brown alligator leather. It fastens with a pin buckle crafted from 18-karat rose gold, adding a final touch of elegance to this exquisite timepiece.
