L.U.C. Triple Certification Tourbillon for Chopard

Most prestigious certifications in Swiss watchmaking



The Chopard L.U.C Triple Certification Tourbillon has received the three most prestigious certifications in Swiss watchmaking, becoming the first watch to do so.

This stunning timepiece has been awarded the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute (Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres, or COSC) certificate, the Poinçon de Genève quality hallmark, and the Fleurier Quality Foundation label. They provide assurance of superior quality, precision and reliability never before see.

The COSC is the only neutral body able to grant the title of ‘chronometer.’ To earn certification, a movement must be built with utmost care and precision, as well as endure 15 days of tests conducted in five different positions and at three different temperatures.

The historic Poinçon de Genève quality hallmark requires strict compliance with 12 exacting criteria, ranging from the integrity of the materials, the craftsmanship of components, as well as movement construction and assembly.

And finally, the Fleurier Quality Foundation certification, the most difficult to obtain, subjects the timepiece to the unparalleled Chronofiable testing procedure, as it evaluates long-term resilience by simulating six-months wear through strains such as impact, wrist movement, and variations in humidity.
