Today’s Watch of the Day selected by Carmelo Anthony will Premier at Baselworld this year, and we have a sneak peek.

This impressive Anniversary timepiece celebrates the 50th year of The Scheufele family ownership of Chopard and is named after its founder, Louis-Ulysse Chopard.

The L.U.C. 1963 Anniversary Chronometer features a 44mm, 18k rose gold case. The tastefully designed dial features a timeless look with black Roman numerals that jump off the white dial, showing hours and minutes and a small seconds dial at the 9 o’clock position. Powered by a Chopard L.U.C. Caliber 63.01-L movement, the movement is reminiscent of a pocket-watch movement Chopard produced in 1963. The movement is beautifully decorated using the cotes de Geneve finish and is COSC certified and also features a 60 hour power reserve.

The Chopard L.U.C 1963 is available in both 18k rose gold or a Platinum model, each of which will be limited to 50 pieces. Fitted with a brown hand-sewn alligator leather strap, lined with cognac colored alligator leather, this special timepiece marks a special anniversary for Chopard and the Scheufele family.
