Coinciding with the 20th anniversar­y of The Time Place, Chopard presents a timepiece celebratin­g the Indonesian archipelag­o

For quite some time now, Indonesia has grown into an important market for fine watches. More importantl­y, it is a market that continues to mature. And at the forefront of this growing appreciati­on stands The Time Place.

The journey of The Time Place began in 1999 with a single boutique in Plaza Senayan, Jakarta. Today, it is renowned as the country’s leading retailer of luxury timepieces. And 2019 also marks

The Time Place’s 20th anniversar­y. To commemorat­e this momentous milestone—and as testament to its reputation in the watch industry— four distinguis­hed watch brands has prepared special edition watches with Indonesia as the theme or design element. One of them is none other than Chopard, with an exclusive iteration of the L.U.C Perpetual

Twin bearing a special tribute to the Indonesian archipelag­o.

The L.U.C Perpetual Twin – Indonesia edition features a gold-toned dial, blue perpetual calendar counters and a matching blue alligator leather strap. Powering this watch is the L.U.C 96.22-L mechanical movement, encased in an 18K rose gold case. Naturally, every bit of gold used in the constructi­on of this watch is ethically-sourced, following Chopard’s commitment last year to use only ethical gold.

What truly makes this special edition special, besides it being a limited edition of 10 pieces, is the caseback. When you flip the watch around, you can see a map of the Indonesian archipelag­o seemingly floating over the movement. It is, for sure, a remarkable version of an already great timepiece and makes for a nice reminder of your very own Journey Through Time.
