The new Chopard L.U.C —Louis-Ulysse Chopard— Quattro Spirit 25 is the celebratory piece to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Chopard manufacture. Equipped with a 40 mm 18K white gold case, this watch is available in a limited edition of only 100 pieces. Its case in what Chopard refers to as Ethical 18K white gold frames a black Grand Feu enamel dial hand-crafted by Chopard Manufacture's enamel artisan.

Ethical gold, also known as fair trade gold, represents a significant shift towards sustainability and responsibility within the jewelry industry. Unlike traditional gold mining, which often involves environmentally damaging practices and exploitation of local communities, ethical gold is sourced in a way that prioritizes the well-being of both people and the planet. Miners are provided with fair wages and safe working conditions, while the extraction process adheres to strict environmental standards to minimize harm to ecosystems. By choosing jewelry made from ethical gold, consumers can support a more transparent and socially conscious supply chain, ultimately making a positive impact on the mining industry as a whole.

From movement to dial, this exceptional timepiece bears witness to the finest expertise and innovation cultivated by the artisans in the Maison's workshops, ensuring a high degree of finishing rewarded by the prestigious Poinçon de Genève quality hallmark.
