In 1860, Louis-Ulysse Chopard, a visionary watchmaker from Sonvilier, set out to redefine the art of watchmaking. At just 24 years old, he began crafting exceptional timepieces that quickly gained recognition within the Swiss horological community and eventually captivated a global audience. Under the stewardship of his son, Paul-Louis Chopard, the brand’s legacy of precision and excellence flourished, marked by the relocation of its production to Geneva, the heart of fine watchmaking. Over time, Chopard evolved into a renowned creator of exquisite jewel watches, solidifying its status as a leading name in the world of haute horlogerie, with the present timepiece truly embodying such a statement. Exuding elegance and individuality, the present yellow-gold Chopard features a unique octagonal case, matched with an even more spectacular and striking green malachite dial, designed in a woven pattern that creates a captivating textured effect. Four triangular-cut diamond accents are seamlessly integrated into the dial, adding a touch of brilliance and sophistication. The slim dauphine hands further complement the overall luxurious and sleek aesthetic of the timepiece. The amalgamation of its unique vintage design and opulent materials positions it as a timeless treasure—a testament to Chopard’s enduring commitment to elegance and singularity, and is certainly destined to be cherished for years to come.
