Louis Ulysse Chopard Military

Authentic LUC Louis Ulysse Chopard

This is an original, authentic, and unaltered LUC Louis Ulysse Chopard—an iconic timepiece that exudes historical significance and rarity. The watch is in exceptional working order, with superb accuracy, and features large Arabic numerals on a striking black dial—a choice that sets it apart from the typical white-dial military watches of the era, particularly favoured by the British. The luminous hands and numerals, while some lume on the minute hand has faded, still offer excellent legibility and contribute to the watch’s bold presence. The nickel and chrome case retains its original, untouched state, with no polishing or alterations, ensuring the watch remains in its purest form.

The inside back case reveals some service history scratched into the metal, with the movement having been serviced by the owner several years ago—though it remains in perfect working order, having only undergone a light clean and gentle oiling. The watch is a manual wind, and while the service date is approximate (around 5 or 6 years ago), it has seen little use since then and is ready to wear for special occasions. The case shows normal wear consistent with age, but the crystal and dial remain in superb condition, as does the movement, which continues to keep time with exceptional accuracy.

This is a watch that is completely authentic and original in every detail, with a stunning wrist presence that commands attention. As one of the pinnacles of watchmaking, this LUC Louis Ulysse Chopard is a rare, untouched piece that is perfect for collectors or those looking for a truly unique, historically significant timepiece.
