New arrival

Good Friday everyone.

Not that this compares with some of the recent Basel / SIHH posts, but here is my new Chopard.  I was in the market for a light dialed sporty watch, and narrowed it down to this, the Breguet Marine, and maybe a VC.  After a surprise showing by an IWC ingeneur, the Chopard won by a fairly large margin.  Excellent bracelet, great sporty dimensions, and details that are amazing.  Here are some pics that I just snapped earlier and wanted to share.


















And outside by our cherry blossom trees.

The Pro One is a truly fascinating sports watch ...

I once was close buying its predecessor, the LUC Sport, which I still consider a highly attractive watch. For me, the Pro One already was a little bit too sporty, with its diving bezel. Overall, however, I would prefer it over many later models. Marcus

Have had it for almost 4 years and every time I strap it to my wrist I smile. IMO it´s a great everyday watch. On the bracelet it´s excellent for summer workdays. Thanks! Ramon ...  

Congrats :-)

It's a full stainless steel. Most of the bracelet and the lugs are brushed, with some highly polished areas. as well as the case sides. Great attention to details.

Thanks...

Congrats on your new acquisition.

I like the entire brushed look that resembles titanium. With its bright luminous hands and indexes, there's no missing it in the dark. Aloha, Bob
