L.U.C PERPETUAL TWIN
The L.U.C Perpetual Twin model houses
a self­winding mechanical movement,
which is equipped with two stacked
barrels (Chopard Twin technology) and
a perpetual calendar. Your wrist move­
ments become the key factor in winding
your watch. When fully wound, it has a

power reserve of 65 hours. If the watch
has stopped, wind it by hand before
wearing it by making about fifty clock­
wise rotations of the crown. This is
equivalent to a power reserve of approxi­
mately 35 hours.
Your watch is supplied with a corrector
tool enabling you to precisely adjust the
date, month, four­year leap­year cycle
and the day.

REMARKS AND WARNINGS
– After each adjustment, the crown must
always be pushed back and screwed
in (depending on the model) in order to
guarantee its water­resistance.
– These operations must not under
any circumstances be performed
underwater, since this might damage
the movement.
– Never use a pen or any other instru­
ment other than that supplied, as this
could damage the watch.
* However, years that are divisible by 100 are
only leap years if their number is also divisible
by 400: 2000 was thus a leap year, but 1700,
1800 and 1900 were not.
