This is a tribute to Louis-Ulysse Chopard, founder of Chopard. This inscription underscores the Maison's heritage. Finally, there is a touching dedication on the case back: " Hans - 20.6.90 ". A birthday, a birth, a wedding? It will remain a mystery!

Françoise loves discreet and elegant pieces, the kind you don't see on every wrist and that are unjustly overlooked!

History
Founded in 1860 in Sonvilier, Switzerland, by Louis-Ulysse Chopard, the Chopard company is dedicated to the creation of precision watches. From the very beginning, Chopard sometimes used the initials "LUC" to mark its watches, a direct reference to its founder and the Maison's identity. Over the decades, Chopard built an international reputation before being acquired in 1963 by the Scheufele family, thus becoming a House of High Jewelry and Watchmaking.
From the 1970s onwards, iconic collections emerged, such as the Happy Diamonds. In 1996, Chopard reached a significant milestone with the creation of its Fleurier manufacture. This facility gave rise to the LUC line, dedicated to high-end mechanical watch movements.
Today, Chopard is recognized as much for its jewelry pieces as for its manufactured movements, combining tradition and technical innovation.
