In an era dominated by conglomerate luxury brands, Chopard stands out as a beacon of family-run authenticity and relentless creativity. With no compromise on quality, Chopard’s journey towards sustainable luxury over the past decade has been nothing short of inspirational. The brand’s enduring value in the relentless flow of time owes much to its steadfast philosophy and vision.
L’Heure du Diamant: A Radiance Refined
Chopard’s new offerings this year are a testament to the brand’s love for diversity and elegance. The L’Heure du Diamant collection, renowned since 1969, represents a harmonious blend of Chopard’s core crafts: horology and gem-setting. This series is particularly adept at showcasing the brilliance of diamonds through exquisite prong settings that amplify their sparkle.
The L’Heure du Diamant Round Models
With two stunning models, the L’Heure du Diamant Round watches are a sight to behold. The 18K rose gold model (10A178-5321) with a peacock stone dial and the 18K white gold model (13A178-1306) with a mother-of-pearl dial both feature a 26mm diameter and a water resistance of 30 meters, encapsulating Chopard’s dedication to ethical standards. The iconic prong setting is a hallmark of the collection, allowing light to pass through the diamonds, creating an unrivaled brilliance.
The Octagonal Elegance of L’Heure du Diamant
The new L’Heure du Diamant Octagonal timepiece, with its 32mm octagonal case, is a nod to designs from the 1960s, offering a fresh and personalized touch to the collection. The V-shaped prong setting technique adorns the bezel with a full circle of diamonds, softening the octagonal design’s masculinity with a touch of elegance.
Imperiale: The Blossoming of Time
Chopard’s Imperiale watches are adorned with delicate flowers, resonating with the youthful spirit within every woman. These timepieces, which combine traditional decorative crafts with modern design, are the fruit of collaboration among master craftsmen, including watchmakers, gem setters, enamel artists, and mother-of-pearl inlayers.
Happy Sport: The Epitome of Versatility
The Happy Sport collection, personified by the effervescent Julia Roberts, exemplifies the brand’s “Joie de Vivre.” The new black and light blue Happy Sport watches are versatile and dynamic, with the black model serving as the “little black dress” of timepieces—elegant, easy to wear, and suitable for all occasions.
High Jewelry: A Testament to Opulence
Chopard’s prowess in high jewelry is evident in two new creations that combine diamonds and sapphires in a symphony of craftsmanship. Each piece, requiring over 400 hours of meticulous work, is a testament to Chopard’s dedication to creating timeless jewelry that radiates charm and sophistication.
