CHRONOGRAPH
Behind its classic and elegant appear-
ance, the L.U.C 1963 Heritage
Chronograph watch is a highly techni-
cal and sophisticated timepiece. Its
hand-wound chronograph calibre
demonstrates both superlative techni-
cal design and a particularly elevated
degree of finishing, securing it the
prestigious Poinçon de Genève hall-
mark. Meeting the most stringent
Fine Watchmaking requirements, this
exceptional watch is powered by the
03.07-L calibre, which has been certi-
fied as a chronometer by the COSC.
It has found its place in the dynasty of
superlative chronographs thanks to a
comprehensive approach – aesthetic,
technical and historical – and to Karl-
Friedrich Scheufele's personal passion
for the purest expressions of tradi-
tional watchmaking.
The L.U.C 1963 Heritage Chronograph
model houses a hand-wound mechani-
cal movement. When the barrel is
fully wound, it has a power reserve of

REMARKS AND WARNINGS
The movement of the L.U.C 1963
Heritage Chronograph is not fitted with
a slipping spring. As a result, resistance
gradually builds up during manual wind-
ing. When winding is complete, the level
of resistance is extremely high because
the movement is fully armed. It is cru-
cial to stop winding at this point to avoid
damaging the movement.
– Each time the crown is handled, it must
be pushed back in to guarantee the
watch's water-resistance.
– These operations must not under
any circumstances be performed
underwater, since this might damage
the movement.
