Celebrated ten years of being employed at me
Dream job with this beautiful watch!

Like many of you, my collection is rich in a mix of black, blue, and white/silver dial pieces. I’ve been eyeing salmon dials for awhile and was aiming for something with quality guilloche. (Patek salmon dials are amazing with rich pink hues but often don’t have guilloche)

The Chopard LUC 1860 in salmon, which was recently discontinued in favor of the blue model, caught my eye and I was able to pull the trigger on a new/unworn model with a trusted dealer reasonably below Chrono24 market prices. I even watched the Man of the Hour episode on Chopard to hype myself up about the brand and their approach with their LUC line in particular.

Beyond the dial, I love the ultra-thin, micro-rotor movement, and 65-hour power reserve. Also the lucent steel has a unique look - will be curious to see how it holds up against scratches.

Excited to add this to my dress watch collection and get it in rotation.
