Chopard has introduced an impressive new addition to its collection, the L.U.C Tech Strike One Limited Edition. This Limited Edition L.U.C Strike One is part of the new L.U.C Tech line created as a more contemporary exploration of Chopard’s L.U.C collection. The watch features the "en passant" hour strike complication which was first introduced in the original Chopard L.U.C Strike One watch. This limited production contains the same complication that inspired the Strike One's name, seen through the tiny window at the top of the dial where the striking mechanism and the hammer are visible. But this design goes a step further opening up the dial to show more of the intricate movement.
The case is made from titanium with a transparent case-back and has a diameter of 40.50 mm and a thickness of 10.88 mm, the crown and striking push-piece are also made from titanium. The sapphire crystal is scratch-resistant and glare proofed. The watch has a mechanical, self-winding L.U.C 96 SHT Chronometer COSC certified movement that has 33 jewels, two stacked barrels - L.U.C "Twin"® technology, and 22ct gold oscillating weight. The dial displays central hour and minute hands, small seconds at 6 o'clock, and a date display at 3 o’clock. The watch sits on a hand-sewn black alligator leather strap with a steel buckle. The limited numbered edition of 100 has a power reserve 65 hours and is water-resistant to 30 meters.
