Kari, thanks.
KFS's own example of the watch made a bit of a world tour and was shown at a few PuristS events toward the end of last year, but I don't know that there is an opportunity to see one otherwise. If you find yourself in Los Angeles I'll be glad to show you mine. 
If you are near a Chopard boutique you may be able to see the Rose Gold 1963 Chronograph, which shares a case and very similar movement. (Modifications were made to the PuristS version with the elimination of the date.)

New Pics of 1963 Chronograph PuristS Edition :-)
I've had time to take a few, and the movement looks as good up close as it does at a distance! (So does the dial!) Best, CaliforniaJed Ah, that's a thing of beauty. The 'stadium' view of the movement is an interesting one. Balance wheel. The 'escapement' ...

Selected Chopard boutiques may have both versions
Kari, Selected Chopard boutiques may have both versions as there are 50 pieces of each colour. Actually, I know the current production batch is for PuristS who ordered through PuristSPro so they are all 'reserved' but the next batch may be available to wa...
Very nice
Great pics Jed. Looking forward to seeing this in person. Regards, ED-209 ps - nice serial number :)
Omg!! I like this watch!
Can someone tell me is there any regular production Chopard luc in 42mm that I can reference to try for size? 42mm is usually too big for me although the short lugs shown on these pics may mean I have a chance... I went to the Chopard boutique in Singapor...
:-)
Many of the newer model L.U.C cases are 42mm. The 1937 is 42mm and a very similar size/shape case, but with flat sides rather than the rounded sides of this case. One more movement pic, just for fun! Best, CaliforniaJed This pic quite literally says it al...
LUC1963 HW Chronograph on a skinny wrist photos
Robin, You know Kong and his skinny wrist?..... See? No problem as the new design short claw-like lugs hug the skinny wrist. Regards, MTF ...

Thank you for sharing and congrats once more on nice numbered PuristS Chrono Jed That hive always makes me smile as I was beekeeper in my young days :) Cordially Damjan
Damjan, thank you.
A beekeeper, eh? Sweet gig! (Pun intended.) Did you enjoy it? (Stung much?) The hive is a nice touch. This one seems to have 22 bees. It will be interesting to see how many others' have. All the best, CaliforniaJed
Really enjoyed it
You must be calm and without quick moves and no stinging will come your way but it is always good to have some smoke as well ;) It was sweet until virus killed them all :( Yours D
Thank you, Nicolas.
And thanks for your contributions to the Chopard forum. Your perspectives are always interesting and always welcomed. I hope you will keep them coming, my friend. All the best, CaliforniaJed

Some still available.
Per MTF, you can still reserve one through PuristSPro or through Chopard. :-) Best, CaliforniaJed
