Chopard L.U.C Heritage Grand CRU 38.5mm

How it wears

Wears larger than its 38.5 mm case suggests

Chopard L.U.C Heritage Grand CRU 38.5mm measures 47.3 mm lug-to-lug on a 38.5 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.23 against a database median of 1.18. That span is longer than 55% of the 8,010 watches in this database and longer than 50% of the 8 Chopard watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 53 mm (2.09 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 64 mm (2.52 in) it starts to look compact. Below 47.3 mm (1.86 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
