Alpine Eagle Flying Tourbillon Automatic 41 mm 298616-3003

DESCRIPTION

With its Alpine Eagle timepieces, Chopard has created a contemporary collection with refined designs and sophisticated mechanics. Backed by Chopard Manufacture's watchmaking craftsmanship and innovative developments, the Alpine Eagle collection features a flyback chronograph movement, high frequency caliber and, since 2022, a flying tourbillon movement. With a thickness of only 3.3 mm, the L.U.C 96.24-L is now fitted in this new Alpine Eagle Flying Tourbillon model: one of the highly rare flying tourbillon watches to bear the dual Chronometer and Poinçon de Genève certification. With its 41 mm diameter case and integrated bracelet, this timepiece is crafted entirely in the Maison's workshops in Lucent Steel™, Chopard's exclusive steel with an 80% recycling rate. Its Rhône Blue textured dial reveals a transparent and light tourbillon mechanism at 6 o'clock, giving the design its elegant and distinguished character.

MOVEMENT A

 Flying tourbillon is characterized by the absence of an upper bridge. As the tourbillon cage is only held in place by the lower bridge, it appears to be flying, creating a transparent effect through the movement. Based on the developments of Chopard Manufacture's first caliber (the L.U.C 96.01-L introduced in 1997), the L.U.C 96.24-L is similarly thin, at just 3.3 mm. A highly rare feature for a tourbillon, the L.U.C 96.24-L movement is equipped with a stop seconds function to enable precise time-setting. This precision has is also certified by the Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC), as shown by the ''Chronometer'' inscription on the dial below the logo.
