The world of watch enthusiasts is set to evolve with MONOCHROME introducing an AI chat system. This revolutionary service leans on two decades of rich horology-related content, enabling a faster and more refined discovery of insights. Similar to renowned technologies like ChatGPT and Gemini, this new development is all about delivering answers and turning the vast info-verse of horology into actionable intelligence while waving traditional search methods goodbye.
This debut makes MONOCHROME the first watch-centric platform leveraging robust AI. The challenge of this monumental innovation was the sheer size of the MONOCHROME data set amassed over 20 years. Canadian developer Evan Borodow successfully navigated this problem by ingeniously incorporating this massive archive into an easily accessible and user-friendly system.

There may be a tendency among watch enthusiasts to overlook ’limited edition’ releases, as these are sometimes followed by a regular-production version. However, the exclusivity of a timepiece like the Chopard L.U.C XP Urushi Ukiyo-e justifiably grabs attention. It’s not merely about the thrill of owning something scarce; the real charm lies in the unique artistry of this watch.
The creative expression depicted on the dial of this timepiece goes beyond the usual accents and embellishments. It displays odd yet beautiful proportions of water, land, and sky - an architectural feat rarely achieved on such a small scale. Viewed from afar, one could easily mistake this meticulously crafted dial for an artistic canvas rather an instrument of time-keeping.
