Karl-Friedrich Scheufele commented that this was Chopard's rehearsal to study minute repeater technology. it's their 1st strike at striking watches
The LUC Strike One is a modular hour striker based on their 1.96 movement. It can be set to strike the hours in passing or silent mode. The module and gongs are made "in-house" as a subsidiary project whilst most manufacture efforts have gone towards refining the LUC-based chronograph.
