It was made by the WANDOLEC ART STUDIO based on “L.U.C. – CHOPARD” movement that dates to ca 1890’s.

This timepiece features a handsome BLACK enameled STEEL dial is in excellent condition, absolutely no chips of abuse. It is featuring a 60 minute checkered outer track border with gold enamel five minute Arabic numerals, gold enamel main Arabic numerals, gold steel Breguet-style hands and TWO separate dials: a recessed sub-seconds dial with “sweep” gold steel seconds hand and 60 second outer chapter with gold Arabic numerals and sub-hour dial (London Time) with “sweep” gold steel hours hand and gold Roman numerals.

The new dial has been professionally updated, and now is in excellent condition. The dial is signed L.U.C. below the 12 and signed REGULATEUR below the 6. Also the dial is decorated with the GOLD RETRO CAR.

It is a registered design model that features a three piece GOLD PLATED case that provides with glass cover of back lid. This watch was converted from pocket watch. GOLD PLATED case, new custom made, fantastic, build specially for this excellent movement. The lugs are in great condition while Pumpkin-style winding crown is in very good shape and operates properly. The case has MINERAL glasses on the front and back side. The case is decorated HIGH QUALITY ENGRAVING.

Peeking inside via the glass lid I find a spotless and high QUALITY ENGRAVED, manual wind gold plated lever escapement movement with the THREE FINGER BRIDGE, BI-METALLIC MICROMETER REGULATOR & BLUE BREGUET BALANCE SPRING. The movement that is stamped trademark CHOPARD symbol – the HIVE with BEES with signed L.U.C.

The new BLACK dial and the ORIGINAL movement are decorated with HIGH QUALITY ENGRAVING with the GOLD RETRO CAR and are made in the same style.

This beautiful wristwatch has the Original movement in an excellent status which was very well saved, considering age of this watch and has been in addition updated and engraved by the craftsman. Each part of the mechanism, each millimeter it is decorated by a magnificent magic ornament. Some of the wearable parts on the movement might be replaced, and custom made to fit, since it is close to impossible to find original parts. Mechanism has been recently serviced to ensure it winds and sets smoothly while keeping great, accurate time.

This is a “NAIL SET” watch so you don’t pull the crown out to set the time. Instead, you press the little button near the crown IN and then move the crown to set the hands, releasing the button once you’re finished. It’s easy, so don’t worry about getting the hang of it!

It is fitted on a new 22mm black alligator style genuine leather strap with gold Stainless steel buckle that is vintage style and goes great with this wonderful watch.
