Chopard LUC Luna Doro 1127 - 18K Yellow Gold Day-Date Moonphase

Trade In
Details

A Golden Era Of Complicated Watchmaking

The Chopard L.U.C. line represents the brand's highest standard of Swiss watchmaking, a space where they have consistently produced exceptional and complicated timepieces. The Luna Doro from the 1990s is a prime example of this ambition, combining a full day-date calendar with a romantic moonphase complication. Housed in a solid 18K yellow gold case, this reference showcases the brand's ability to blend traditional high-horology with a distinct and confident design language from a celebrated era in watchmaking.

Understated Proportions, Heavyweight Presence

This Luna Doro balances its impressive set of complications within a classically proportioned 34mm case. The result is a watch that is both intellectually engaging and incredibly wearable. The white dial has aged to a warm cream tone, providing a clean backdrop for the calendar and moonphase displays. It is a thoughtful execution that offers a lot of information without feeling cluttered, a testament to Chopard's refined design approach during the neo-vintage period.

An Honest And Well Maintained Example

This watch is in good condition. The 18K yellow gold case is strong, the dial is clean, and the crystal is perfect. It is fitted to a leather strap that secures with the original Chopard clasp, a small but important detail that speaks to its history. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.

For The Appreciator Of Nuance

This is a watch for someone who understands the quiet confidence of 1990s watchmaking. It predates the trend of oversized cases and loud designs, instead focusing on craftsmanship and mechanical substance. The Luna Doro offers a compelling set of complications from a highly respected manufacture in a package that is both elegant and substantial on the wrist. It is a smart choice for the collector who values what is inside the case as much as the case itself.

What Our Clients Say About Us

I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)

Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.

This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
