[STRAPS]( [Introducing Chopard In The Hodinkee Shop]( [Explore The Chopard L.U.C Collection]( [Recently we introduced Chopard in the Hodinkee Shop, a family-owned independent brand that plays with the big kids of watchmaking. While we gave a quick overview of what would initially be available we also wanted to take a chance to do a deeper dive into each collection.]( [The best way to start is the same way Chopard started their in-house movements, with the L.U.C collection. When the line was launched in 1996 it set up Chopard as an in-house movement maker who wasnât interested in developing simple calibers. No, they wanted to make a micro-rotor platform that could be used as a base for high end complications. The result was the caliber 1.96, a movement that would be universally praised as one of the best ever produced and set the tone for the entire L.U.C collection.]( [As of 2021 only 4,000 movements a year are produced for L.U.C watches, so any watch from this collection will be on the rare side. The low production number is a reflection of the time it takes to hand finish even the simpler time and date only models]( [Read More About The Chopard L.U.C Collection]( CHOPARD L.U.C COLLECTION [Image of Chopard L.U.C XPS Twist QF]( [Chopard L.U.C XPS Twist QF]( In the realm of simple dress watches, it's hard to beat the Chopard L.U.C XPS series, but this XPS Twist QF limited edition is a standout among standouts. At 40mm and featuring an elegant white-gold construction using ethically sourced materials, a gorgeous asymmetrical dial in a rich blue-grey, and an in-house COSC certified movement, this watch goes above and beyond expectations for a dress watch. [Chopard L.U.C GMT One Black]( Chopard has outdone itself with this very special limited edition, which is the world's first GMT in ceramised titanium. A distinctive and handsome GMT, the familiar hemispheres of the internal GMT bezel give you instant recognition of your reference time, while the bold dauphine handset with Super-LumiNova gives you local time at a glance. It's handsome, useful, and incredibly unique.

At 40mm in diameter and featuring an elegant stainless-steel construction, a classic bright white dial, and an in-house COSC certified movement, the XPS hits a bullseye on all the dress watch targets. [Chopard L.U.C Time Traveler One Black]( A 250-piece limited edition, this watch is very light on the wrist, and the ceramic treatment makes it tough as nails. This watch may come from Chopard's more traditional L.U.C collection, but don't let that tell you anything more than that it is made to meet the utmost horological standards. With 50 meters of water resistance and an embossed black rubber strap, you can take the L.U.C Time Traveler anywhere your adventures may lead.
