A tale of elegance and craftsmanship.
Jane Lau, also famously known as Jane Chuck, is no stranger to the fashion realm. What started as a simple desire to document her daily life and personal style has blossomed into a vibrant adventure that merges passion with purpose. The fashion powerhouse arrived on set with a smile on her face and a story to share.
On set, her gaze gravitated toward the new 38mm creations by Audemars Piguet, alternating between the Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar in stainless steel and the Code 11.59 by Audemars Piguet Perpetual Calendar in 18-carat pink gold.
Elegantly perched on her wrist, the Code 11.59 by Audemars Piguet Perpetual Calendar, with its vibrant green dial paired with a sumptuous alligator strap, creates a striking statement that exudes sophistication and modern flair. But the allure doesn’t stop there.
As she pivots her attention, the Royal Oak Perpetual Calendar takes centre stage with its captivating light blue “Grande Tapisserie” dial and its functions—perpetual calendar, day, date, astronomical moon, month, leap year, hours and minutes. The delicate interplay of 18-carat white gold hands and hour markers casts a mesmerising glow, showcasing the artistry of Swiss craftsmanship.
For the creator and entrepreneur, the timepieces are a seamless match—a reflection of her bold yet refined aesthetic.
When we asked her about her early days, she gushed, “Honestly, it was really just me wanting to share my daily life, outfits and thoughts back then.” Little did she know that her words would transform into a flourishing blog that resonated with a growing audience. “I didn’t imagine it would grow into what it is today.”
As her journey unfolded, one fundamental lesson emerged. “I’ve learned to grow with my audience, to stay authentic and not to be afraid of evolving,” she shared. Her commitment to evolution while maintaining authenticity mirrors Audemars Piguet’s own philosophy—embracing change while honouring tradition and identity.
Transitioning into entrepreneurship, Jane spoke passionately about her two brands, Chucks and Motherchuckers. “It came from wanting to build something beyond myself,” she explained. “Chucks is my softer, beauty side; Motherchuckers is cheeky and fun.”
Despite her success, motherhood keeps her grounded. “Every decision matters more now because I want to build something meaningful for my family,” she emphasised—a powerful sentiment that many can relate to in today’s fast-paced world.
While juggling motherhood and entrepreneurship isn’t easy, she has refined the art of self-care. “I’ve learned to say no when I need to and to ask for help.” Whether through her skincare routine or a quiet moment with a book, she finds calm among the chaos. “Little rituals keep me sane,” she added.
As her love for fashion has evolved over the years, she has gravitated toward timeless pieces that embody a less-is-more philosophy. When it comes to horology, she found a kindred spirit in Audemars Piguet. “It’s timeless yet bold—classic but never boring,” she said, highlighting the essence of her personal style. “To me, the brand and craftsmanship evoke a quiet confidence. It’s not about showing off, it’s about wearing something that represents the work and growth I’ve put in over the years.”
In between takes, she took a moment to admire the brand’s latest timepieces. “I see wearing a watch as part of my daily uniform—whether I’m in a meeting, travelling, or even on a casual day out. It’s a great addition to elevate my everyday style.”
The Code 11.59 by Audemars Piguet Perpetual Calendar, featuring the remarkable Calibre 7138, boasts a stunningly slim profile of just 4.1 mm. With its sophisticated high frequency of 4 Hz and an impressive 55-hour power reserve, this watch is as functional as it is timeless.
Equipped with a perpetual calendar that tracks the week, day, date, astronomical moon, month, and leap year, it keeps the modern trailblazer perfectly in sync. This exceptional blend of elegance and intricate detail elevates watchmaking to an art form, making a bold statement on her wrist.
She continued to share, “Audemars Piguet is more than a watch; it’s a symbol of craft and legacy. Owning one feels like being part of a bigger story, something that lasts beyond trends.”
With the impeccable timepieces from Audemars Piguet adorning her wrist, she not only celebrates her individual style but also honours the legacy of craftsmanship that inspires her. As we look forward to the future, Jane invites anyone to cherish their journeys, embrace their authentic selves, and find strength in the stories we craft along the way.
