Chopard - Triple Calendar Moonphase

Details

A Jeweler's Take On Complication

Chopard has always approached watchmaking with the eye of a master jeweler. The LVNA D'ORO is a perfect expression of that philosophy, combining the classical appeal of a triple calendar moonphase with the modern practicality of a high-grade quartz movement. Cased in solid 18K yellow gold, it delivers a traditional, complicated look without the demanding service requirements of a mechanical equivalent. It represents a specific moment in the 1990s when established houses embraced new technology to make classic designs more accessible.

Elegant Execution And A Unique Patina

This example stands out for its clean, balanced dial and the remarkable patina on its case. The white dial serves as a perfect backdrop for the gold stick hands and Roman numerals. Its layout is intuitive, with day and date subdials at nine and three o'clock, and a traditional moonphase display at the six o'clock position. The most distinct feature is the 18k yellow gold case, which has oxidized over time to a darker, almost purple hue, giving it a character that cannot be replicated.

An Untouched And Well Preserved Example

Both the dial and case are in great cosmetic, untouched condition. The watch is fitted to a maroon pebble textured leather strap that complements the warm tones of the gold case. All parts are original, including the signed caseback, dial, and movement. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.

Sophistication Made Simple

This is a watch for someone who appreciates the aesthetics of a complicated calendar watch but prefers the grab-and-go reliability of quartz. It offers the full experience of a classic dress piece from a high-end jeweler in a wearable size. The combination of yellow gold, a full calendar display, and the unique patina makes it a confident and interesting choice that works well beyond its price point.

History

Chopard was founded in 1860 in Sonvilier, Switzerland, and has been family-owned since Karl Scheufele acquired the company in 1963. The L.U.C division — named after founder Louis-Ulysse Chopard — produces in-house movements of genuine quality. Our vintage inventory includes the St. Moritz skeletonized piece and an LUC Dual Time tank case, alongside Chopard Laykin & Co. double-stamped examples that carry California retail history. These are watches from the era when Chopard was building its reputation as a serious watchmaker alongside its better-known jewelry business.
