When people think of Chopard watches they conjure an image of the ladies models with the floating diamonds or the popular Mille Miglia model series of sports watches. The LUC models from Chopard are elite watches by anyone’s definition. Featuring proprietary, extremely high end manufacture movements, the LUC series watches are right up there with the creme de la crème of the Swiss watch making world. Think Patek Philippe quality. This is no surprise when the secret of why these watches are so elite is revealed. Michel Parmigiani was the best kept secret in Swiss watchdom for a long time, working on restoring complicated clocks and then moving to wristwatch caliber design and development for the best Swiss houses. In the late 1990s, he started his own eponymous brand: Parmigiani Fluerier. He designed the original LUC calibers for Chopard, who put them in conservatively designed watch cases in precious metals only. Also known as: Chopard 36/91208, 3691208, 36-91208
