The Chopard St. Moritz is a compelling example of early integrated bracelet sports watches from the 1980s and 1990s, combining bold design and refined execution. Designed by Karl-Friedrich Scheufele and named after the iconic Swiss alpine city, the St. Moritz was Chopard’s first sports watch in steel and one of the first high-end luxury watches to fully embrace two-tone and gold variants. The example offered here is a rare steel chronograph variant, reference 8333, distinguished by its pink salmon dial—a warm, striking tone that enhances the sporty yet elegant presence of the model. Most St. Moritz pieces encountered are time-only; chronograph configurations are significantly less common, making this example all the more desirable. Powering the watch is the automatic Caliber 1185, a thin, column-wheel chronograph movement visible through the sapphire caseback. A standout in Chopard’s history, the present chronograph is mechanically impressive and notably scarce, especially in this dial and complication configuration.
