Chopard 36/91208 Luna d'Oro Platinum Chronograph Quantieme Perpetuel LE

The Chopard reference 36/91208 in platinum is a sophisticated example of the brand’s high-complication watchmaking from the late 20th century, and belongs to the prestigious L.U.C collection, through which Chopard affirmed its ambitions as a true modern manufacture. Housed in a platinum case of approximately 40mm, it offers a rare combination of precious metal presence, classical proportions, and substantial mechanical complexity.

Part of the Luna d’Oro line and produced in a limited series of 50 pieces, the 36/91208 reflects the renewed appreciation for traditional mechanical horology during the post-quartz revival. Its movement was conceived by Michel Parmigiani, one of the great figures of modern watchmaking, whose work brought exceptional technical credibility to the project. The dial combines a chronograph, perpetual calendar, moon-phase display, leap-year indication, within a balanced and formal composition, achieving technical density without visual excess.

From a collector’s standpoint, the 36/91208 represents an important and relatively discreet chapter in Chopard’s modern watchmaking history. It stands apart from more widely recognised perpetual calendar chronographs by offering a comparable level of complication in a far rarer watch at a very undervalued price. Its association with the L.U.C collection and Michel Parmigiani further enhances its relevance, giving the watch both horological substance and historical depth.

Our example is especially appealing, being one of only 50 pieces produced in platinum. It is fitted with its original Chopard platinum buckle and bears the individual limited-edition number 10/50, completing a beautiful and coherent example of this highly important Chopard wristwatch.
