This week\u2019s Cannes Film Festival is the 21st<\/sup> consecutive year at which Chopard has been an official partner, and the brand has released a limited edition of its L.U.C XPS called the Azur, a reference to the colour of the Mediterranean on the French Riviera that also gives the watch its dial colour.<\/strong><\/p>\n There will be ten made of the watch, which houses the chronometer-certified L.U.C 96.01-L movement in a slim 40mm 18ct white gold case.<\/p>\n Chopard calls it the ultimate red carpet timepiece.<\/p>\n Its azure blue hand-guilloch\u00e9d dial is lit up by baguette-cut hour-markers, swept over by Dauphine-type hands while the movement, visible through a crystal case back, shows the Poincon de Geneve hallmark of quality and a 22ct gold micro rotor.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
