Watches And Wonders 2025: The Chopard Alpine Eagle Collection Soars High

At Watches & Wonders 2025, Chopard has taken its Alpine Eagle collection to new heights, introducing two stunning models that embody the Maison's signature blend of pure design, sophisticated mechanics, and timeless elegance. With a perfect fusion of technical expertise and nature-inspired beauty, these two timepieces showcase Chopard's commitment to pushing the boundaries of luxury watchmaking.

Alpine Eagle 33mm: Where Lucent Steel™ Meets Ethical Yellow Gold

Chopard's Alpine Eagle collection, already renowned for its contemporary sports aesthetic, has just been elevated with a brand-new 33mm model that introduces the gleam of Lucent Steel™ and the shimmer of ethical 18-carat yellow gold. This eye-catching timepiece marks a milestone, offering the perfect harmony between these two noble materials.

The 33mm case, crafted from Chopard's ultra-resistant Lucent Steel™ (made with at least 80% recycled content), is paired with a yellow gold bezel, crown, and central bracelet cap, creating a stunning contrast of colors. The dial, with its captivating "Vals Grey" hue, evokes the silvery reflections of the quartzite slabs found on traditional alpine houses, while diamond-set hour markers add a touch of sparkle. The elegant dial is further enhanced by gilded hands and hour markers at 3, 6, 9, and 12 o’clock, ensuring a refined, luxurious look.

Powered by the Chopard Calibre 09.01-C, a self-winding movement crafted from 159 components, the Alpine Eagle 33mm offers a reliable 42-hour power reserve. This watch not only boasts excellent precision but is also officially chronometer-certified by the Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC), making it a distinguished and accurate companion, whether in the city or the mountains.

This new timepiece beautifully represents Chopard's commitment to craftsmanship and environmental responsibility, blending luxury with sustainability and capturing the essence of alpine elegance.

Alpine Eagle 41 XP CS Platinum: A Tribute to the Majesty of Nature

Chopard's innovation doesn’t stop with the 33mm model. The Alpine Eagle 41 XP CS Platinum takes the collection to extraordinary new levels with a luxurious platinum case and a "Shades of Ice" blue dial inspired by the disappearing glaciers of the Alps. This exceptional timepiece brings together refined materials and cutting-edge technology, showcasing the Maison's mastery in both design and mechanics.

Platinum, one of the rarest and most precious metals, forms the case of this ultra-thin 41mm watch. Not only is platinum 30 times rarer than gold, but it also boasts remarkable durability, corrosion resistance, and a stunning lustre that will last for generations. The Alpine Eagle 41 XP CS Platinum is powered by Chopard’s L.U.C Calibre 96.42-L, an ultra-thin movement featuring a platinum micro-rotor. This movement is a testament to Chopard’s technical prowess, offering a 65-hour power reserve and the COSC chronometer certification.

The dial, with its gradient blue color shifting from pale to deep blue, is a true work of art. Inspired by the shimmering beauty of Alpine glaciers, the "Shades of Ice" dial captures the ever-changing light of the mountains. This visually striking dial is accented by the stamped "eagle’s iris" pattern, creating a mesmerizing play of light and shadows, reminiscent of the majestic natural landscapes of the Alps.

Chopard’s artisans have carefully sculpted the case and integrated bracelet, with polished chamfers and contrasting finishes that reveal the purity of platinum in every angle. The bracelet features reshaped links that combine ergonomics with refined elegance, ensuring the perfect balance of comfort and style.

A Legacy of Innovation and Craftsmanship

From the shimmering Vals Grey dial of the 33mm model to the platinum refinement of the Alpine Eagle 41 XP CS, Chopard continues to push the boundaries of what a sports watch can be. As Karl-Friedrich Scheufele, Co-President of Chopard, eloquently puts it: "The Alpine Eagle collection is renewed in a subtle combination of refined textures, materials, and changing colors that embody the timeless elegance of Chopard craftsmanship, the technical excellence of our watchmakers, and the ethereal beauty of Alpine Nature."
