Chopard watch has been always graceful and elegant, is a category of white-collar friends’ love. The CEO Mr. Carl – Fred Warren Schaefer also told reporter: “Chinese consumers not only require function but also good look of the watch. There is no the most popular series of Chopin. As long as it is functional the watch will be loved by consumers. We always need to consider the question “what is the most valuable and what is the most important value for a watch.” The most complicated watch has more than 500 components and the adding of every perfect component can obtain the biggest value. Therefore, our focus is detail. The perfect of the watch appearance is also important. The functional masterpiece if without nice appearance is also nothing.”
And Chopard succeed this time to launch the unexpected high-frequency watch L.U.C. 8HF-this watch will make the writer speed up heart beat and will find the watch is also speed up to a new level-8H.z with the vibration frequency of 57600 times per hour. Even though it is the fastest mechanical movement in the world, it still tells us that it is one time faster than the traditional manual winding watch movement with the vibration frequency of 4H.z of 28,800 times per hour.
The primary advantages of the ultra-high vibration frequency applying in the watchmaking are the improvement of the precise movement function of movement, especially presenting on the error and stable performance aspects. It is the more times of the vibration of the pendulum, the less interference. Chopard tried their best to finish this technical feat. In fact, the high frequency could improve reliability and accuracy. But the high vibration also needs much more power. Even though, this watch is equipped with single barrel, the power reserve is up to 60 hours. In the material, the engineers in the Chopard technology centre choose silicon to make the part of the escapement system and research new fixed silicon material to put on the stainless steel.
L.U.C 8HF wrist watch is equipped with 42mm titanium case, corresponding with its avant-garde movement. The waterproof is 30m. The exquisite titanium gold crown is at 4:00 engraved with “L.U.C.” words. The calendar indicated by the array is set at 5:30 and red small second pointer is at 7:30. In virtue of the high frequency of 57,600 times per hour escapement system, it is more flexible and smooth than other designs. The case matches with black matt lugs and one-body back and screw-in inlaid crown protection cover in bold and fashion design. The half-closed back with arc glass makes the operation of the precise high-frequency escapement system be seen at glance.
