Chopard L.U.C XP Navy Blue - Monochrome Watches
Chopard updates the wardrobe of the L.U.C XP with an on-trend blue dial and a blue Merino wool strap. Although it is the simplest, most Spartan member of the L.U.C watch family, indicating just the hours and minutes, the watch is teeming with subtle details. Exploring the route of casual elegance on the dial, the specifications are identical to the 2017 model and the watch is fitted with the ultra-thin in-house L.U.C automatic calibre with its patented Twin architecture.BackgroundLaunched in 2006, the L.U.C XP was the first ultra-thin watch in the high-end L.U.C collection and won the 2006 GPHG prize in the ultra-thin watch category. Revisited along with the L.U.C XPS model by designer Guy Bove (former creative director of Ferdinand Berthoud), the 2017 model signalled a new direction for the L.U.C ultra-thin models. The objective was to refresh the looks of the dial and offer a more contemporary, more casual product that would appeal to a wider audience. The L.U.C XP was presented in a

We know this watch for almost?10 years and we’ve seen it in dozens of editions – some linked to certain events (Le Mans Classic), made for special friends of the brand (Felipe Masse, Roberto Mancini…) and manufactured in all possible colors or materials (red quartz, ceramic, carbon fiber, titanium, gold…). This watch could certainly be the most popular RM watch – and is probably the brand’s best seller too. After so many variations, it was time for this icon to get some fresh air, and after a strong facelift, this watch becomes the?Richard Mille RM 11-03 Automatic Flyback Chronograph.What is new in this?Richard Mille RM 11-03 Automatic Flyback Chronograph?

Panerai Luminor Marina Silver Dial Steel Bracelet PAM00977 and PAM00978 (Specs & Price)
For the first time in its history, Panerai, the Italian brand well-known for its iconic shaped diver’s watches, is introducing two new models with a silver-coloured dial. The new Panerai Luminor Marina watches, which are always the ones with a small seconds subdial, will be available in 42mm and 44mm. To match the silver-coloured dial, both come on a steel bracelet.We’re used to picturing Panerai watches as the archetypical diver’s watch,? robust underwater tools first used by the Italian Navy many decades ago. Big and rugged watches, with a black dial with large and legible Arabic numerals, and the recognizable crown protection device. However, since the brand was bought by the Vend?me Group in 1997 (which later became Richemont), collections with more complications and styles were developed. Today, the range comprises much more than iconic professional diver’s watches. And while the Italian brand already offered various dial colours, including white and cream-
