chopard titanium

[silver7]

Does anyone have an opinion on a Chophard XL grand tourismo limited edition to 1000 pieces in Titanium. I am working in singapore for 2 weeks and have found one for around £2.5k (20% discount). I can't find a picture but main difference is the face is dark grey with very fine lines.

Question - do these hold their values? is this a good price?

thanks in advance

I had been in love with the Mille Miglia's for a while, but by all accounts the movement inside them is just a plain old boggo ETA, and from what I've seen, I don't think their resale value is that high, but I'm in the US so it might be different where you are.

ok thanks I am not in love with it, just thought it might be a bit different. I refuse to lose money on watches though. Just got my daytona at list (took 3 years though!) Now I did fall in love with the blancpain 50 fathoms chrono! but out of my price range (£6k)

I would agree with DrJon - the Chopards don't seem to hold their value brilliantly - not bad but certainly don't seem to gain.

I think the movement is from the Valgranges range so definitely ETA but not, perhaps "boggo" ...

Also 1000 isn't really a very limited edition.

Personally I think they are very attractive watches and if you want one to wear then definitely go ahead. I really like the GT XL, except for the d**n cyclops which I cannot bear, and is a deal breaker for me.

had a look at the chophard today, the cyclops has put me off. Would be nice to find a 'toy' whilst I am here. Ideas appreciated

Very nice watch, tried it on in Boodles once, was suprised at how comfortable it was. 2.5k sounds like a bargain.

does any one know list price on these?

Are you sure it's in titanium? As the April 1st price list only shows the model in steel or rose gold.
Steel prices are:

MM GT XL = £2,630
MM GT XL power control = £3,200
MM GT XL Chrono = £3,600

yes it is a titanium limited edition (1000) XL non chrono ( dont think it has power reserve) with date
