Catalogue Essay
- The Alpine Eagle collection represents Chopard’s vision of a modern luxury sports watch, combining robust construction with refined elegance. This present example commands attention with its striking burgundy dial, its sunburst guilloché pattern evoking the flying flag of Qatar. The rich maroon tone shifts dynamically under light enhancing its sporty yet sophisticated character. The limited series of 50 pieces honour its longstanding partnership with Alfardan Jewellery and are exclusively distributed in Qatar.
- Housed in a commanding 41mm diameter case crafted in Lucent steel, the watch exudes strength and precision. Lucent steel is crafted sustainably with 80% recycled elements which has a tougher and brighter quality compared to regular steel, while the alternating polished and satin-finished surfaces create a striking interplay of light. The integrated bracelet follows the case’s muscular lines, tapering seamlessly for a secure yet comfortable fit—ideal for active wear.
- Powered by the high-performance cal. 01.01-C movement, this Alpine Eagle is built for reliability. The self-winding caliber, certified as a COSC chronometer, delivers a 60-hour power reserve and precise timekeeping. Through the sapphire caseback, the movement’s refined finishing is on full display, including Geneva striping and a custom rotor engraved with the Alpine Eagle motif.

Chopard
Swiss | 1860At the age of 24, Louis-Ulysse Chopard started his company L.U.C. Chopard in Sonviller, Switzerland. Since the brand's inception in 1860, Chopard understood the need for thin and accurate pocket watches to be functional for daily wear. The brand gained world recognition in 1912 after Tsar Nicolas II became a client.
Following Louis-Ulysse's death in 1915, his sons Paul-Louis and Paul André took over the business and moved their headquarters to La Chaux-de-Fonds. In 1963, the company was taken over by Karl Scheufele, who remains the brand's owner. Arguably Chopard's most recognizable design, the "Happy" line, was inspired by Scheufele's daughter Caroline. In 1996, his son Karl-Friedrich established Chopard as a manufacturer of its own range of in-house movements under the name L.U.C., creating groundbreaking, exquisitely finished watches that have earned the brand worldwide acclaim.
