First introduced in the 1970s, Chopard’s Happy Diamonds collection revolutionized the concept of luxury watches by placing free-floating diamonds between two sapphire crystals — a whimsical idea that fused mechanical ingenuity with joyful design. While cushion or square cases are more commonly associated with the collection, the present example stands apart with its rare and charismatic hexagonal case, a geometric twist that underscores the playful spirit of Chopard. The hexagon-shaped 18K yellow gold case is both architectural and elegant, beautifully complemented by a matching integrated gold bracelet. At the center, a minimalist golden dial sits quietly within a glossy black frame, drawing the eye toward the real stars of the show: 14 floating diamonds, which twinkle and dance freely with every flick of the wrist. Topped off with a cabochon-set crown and a fully signed caseback, this timepiece captures the exuberance of 1970s design while offering timeless appeal. A rare find for collectors of vintage Chopard or aficionados of high jewelry watches, this Happy Diamonds model blends creativity, rarity, and enduring joy into a single, unforgettable package.
