L.U.C Quattro Spirit 25

The rare works of the Chopard workshop are gathered under the roof of L.U.C. These works, adorned with high-level embroidery and a nod to high watchmaking, are named after the founder of the brand, Louis-Ulysse Chopard.

The L.U.C Quattro Chopard Spirit 25 model was first introduced in 2021, dedicated to the 25th anniversary of the establishment of Chopard Manufacture. The model, which is produced in a limited number of 100 pieces, manages to attract attention with its 40mm x 10.3mm case and jump hour complication. The hour window at 6 o'clock shares the current time with its user, while the hand in the center shares the minute information. The model is powered by the L.U.C 98.06-L caliber with an 8-day power reserve, in-house production, consisting of 240 parts, operating at 28800 vibrations per hour, and bearing the Geneva Seal.

The Jump Hour complication cannot find a place for itself easily in the brands in the L.U.C class in today's watch market. Although top-level manufacturers such as Patek Philippe and Audemars Piguet have launched models with a jumping hour disc throughout history, it is quite difficult to come across high-level production names that add this feature to their collections today. With this model, Chopard has created a Jump Hour wristwatch that winks at high-end watchmaking.

In addition to the first introduced version of the L.U.C Quattro Spirit 25 with a rose gold casing and white enamel dial, it is possible to come across several other models.

The first of these is the version with a white gold casing, black enamel dial, and a limited number of 100 units, introduced in 2024. Equipped with an 8-day power reserve wind-up caliber, as in the original model, the model manages to create a stylish alternative for watch lovers with its deep black dial.

The other versions are much harder to reach than the two models mentioned above.

Introduced in 2022, the Calavera TimeForArt model is produced in 1 piece.

It is not difficult to predict that we will encounter different L.U.C Quattro Spirit 25 models in the following years, but unfortunately, these watches are quite difficult to obtain.
