The new L.U.C XPS 1860 Red Carpet Edition celebrates the Maison’s passion for film-making. This watch, issued from a 10-piece limited series, bears the Poinçon de Genève quality hallmark and is chronometer-certified by the COSC. Dedicated to the greatest actors on the Croisette, it reflects the craftsmanship and precision of the exclusive horological creations from the Manufacture Chopard. It also complements the divine Red Carpet Collection that annually takes on the challenge of creating a number of High Jewellery models that exactly equal the amount of years the Festival has been around for.

Chopard and film-making are engaged in an ageless love story built on powerful emotions. In 1998, at the initiative of Chopard Co-President and Creative Director Caroline Scheufele, the Maison became Official Partner of the world’s greatest cinema event: the Cannes Film Festival. Ever since, artists’ appearances on the red carpet and the legendary ‘Montée des marches' ritual have been accompanied by dazzling creations meticulously crafted in the workshops of Chopard. Its artisans master the art of making far more than merely watches and jewellery, instead giving life to creations synonymous with emotions. Similarly to women, men have just as great of a need to shine alongside actresses in front of the camera flashlights at the Cannes Film Festival, Chopard presents a new edition to its collection of its exceptional L.U.C timepieces, especially designed to be worn on the red carpet: the L.U.C XPS 1860 Red Carpet Edition in 18-carat white gold. This intrinsically exclusive new L.U.C model is issued in a 10-piece limited edition and adorned with a dial in a shade of red reminiscent of the famous carpeting on the staircase climbed by the greatest actors for the presentations of the film in competition at Cannes.
