Subtle Refinements

From Maison Chopard’s beloved collections come new and improved timepieces.

Chopard is a brand that understands the value of refinement, crafting timepieces with finely tuned changes that resonate with loyal followers and captivate new admirers. With its latest 33mm models from the Alpine Eagle, Happy Sport and L’Heure du Diamant collections, the maison showcases how subtle innovations in design, ethical craftsmanship and technical precision can cater to diverse tastes while staying true to its legacy.

ALPINE EAGLE 33 FROZEN
The Alpine Eagle 33 Frozen is inspired by nature’s icy beauty. Crafted from ethical 18-carat white gold, the watch is fully set with diamonds, including baguette cuts on the bezel and brilliant cuts on the bracelet links and dial. Designed for slimmer wrists, it retains the collection’s balanced proportions. Its exhibition case back reveals the meticulously crafted Chopard 09.01-C self-winding movement, composed of 159 components. The watch also offers 50m water resistance, proving that its opulence doesn’t come at the expense of functionality.

HAPPY SPORT
The Happy Sport in Lucent Steel combines minimalist design with sustainable materials. Lucent Steel, made from 80% recycled content, offers both durability and brightness while aligning with Chopard’s commitment to sustainability. The cream-coloured guilloché dial is understated yet refined, featuring five dancing diamonds that move freely with the wearer. The bezel and case are crafted from the same steel and are water resistant to 30m. Olive-green details such as the alligator leather strap and a crown set with a green tourmaline introduce a subtle pop of colour without overwhelming the design.

HAPPY SPORT JOAILLERIE
The Happy Sport Joaillerie is a vivid display of Chopard’s playful spirit and exceptional gem-setting expertise. Its ethical 18-carat white gold case is framed by a bezel adorned with baguette-cut purple sapphires arranged in a soft gradient. The textured mother-of-pearl dial features five dancing diamonds, while sapphires serve as hour markers. This vibrant design is finished with a glossy purple alligator leather strap and a pin buckle set with diamonds. While visually dynamic, the watch is also practical, with a durable case and 30m water resistance. Its harmonious proportions are based on the golden ratio (also known as divine proportion, a ratio between two numbers that equals approximately 1.618), ensuring a visually pleasing aesthetic that is as captivating as it is balanced.

L’HEURE DU DIAMANT
The L’Heure du Diamant is a celebration of vintage-inspired elegance. Its cushion-shaped case, crafted from ethical 18-carat white gold, is surrounded by a bezel set with 24 pear-shaped diamonds, totalling 3.86 carats. The aventurine glass dial sparkles like a starry sky, offering a unique texture and depth that sets it apart from more traditional materials. A midnight-blue alligator leather strap enhances the celestial theme, creating a cohesive and sophisticated design. This watch reflects the L’Heure du Diamant collection’s roots in the 1960s while embracing modernity.
