CHOPARD – ALPINE EAGLE 41 SL Cadence 8HF Titanium Edition

 

CHOPARD – ALPINE EAGLE 41 SL Cadence 8HF Ceramised Titanium Black Dial Automatic Edition - 2025

The Alpine Eagle collection has been continually enriched with new technical feats since its inception in 2019. With its third edition of high-frequency timepieces, it marks yet another achievement by introducing the lightest watch ever presented in the collection. The 41-millimetre case, crown and bezel of this Alpine Eagle 41 SL Cadence 8HF model – issued in a 250-piece limited edition – are crafted in ceramicised titanium, teamed with a special-shaped rubber strap. Even its high-frequency, chronometer-certified Chopard 01.14-C movement, is lighter than its predecessor, thanks to a mainplate and bridges also made of ceramicised titanium.

This cutting-edge technology is complemented by a perfectly mastered aesthetic: the ceramicised titanium features a sporty beadblasted finish, while the Pitch Black titanium dial plays on contrasts with subtle orange accents. In fact, the Alpine Eagle 41 SL Cadence 8HF is all about precision, style and sportiness.

The challenge of lightness

The weight of an eagle feather? No, rather that of the latest Alpine Eagle 41 SL Cadence 8HF model, in which ‘SL’ stands for Super Light. This is undeniably the lightest watch ever to grace Chopard’s Alpine Eagle collection: an innovation which has been skilfully combined with a quest for cutting-edge materials to shape not only the watch’s exterior elements, but also certain movement components.

No potential weight savings have been left to chance. To begin with, the 41 mm-diameter, 9.75 mm-thick case has been made from ceramicised grade 5 titanium, as have the bezel with its eight indexed screws, the crown engraved with a compass rose and the bracelet clasp. Alongside its modest weight, the use of ceramicised titanium reflects Chopard workshops’ avant-garde spirit. This ultra-resistant metal is obtained by a process of oxidising titanium using electro-plasma technology: a treatment granting it a hardness of 1000 Vickers as well as shock and scratch resistance comparable to that of ceramic. Developed for use in aerospace and automobile construction, it also features an anthracite grey colour that does not fade over time – a welcome feature in a watch designed for the most extreme conditions.

The Alpine Eagle Cadence 8HF series also appears for the first time in a version with a rubber strap – an option previously confined to the XL Chrono model. This contributes to its eminently sporty character, and is above all another means of cutting its weight. Finally, the dial, traditionally stamped with a motif inspired by the eagle's iris, is made on a titanium base. In addition to all these efforts to make the watch lighter, the movement has also undergone several changes.

The rare performance of a high-frequency movement

High frequency improves chronometry, a theme particularly dear to Chopard’s Co-President, Karl-Friedrich Scheufele. While shocks are part of the life of a watch, they nonetheless disturb the oscillations of the balance. Due to a statistical effect, however, the faster the balance beats, the less effect each impact has on the average rate. This high frequency is also high speed, thus implying rapid recovery of the isochronous rate.

In 2012, Chopard was a pioneer in marketing an entire series of watches with a chronometer-certified high frequency movement. Thanks to the status of Chopard Manufacture as a veritable watchmaking laboratory, the L.U.C collection was enhanced with the L.U.C 01.06-L calibre equipping an experimental series of 100 L.U.C 8HF timepieces in titanium, a model that has become a genuine collector's item. Since then, the calibre – whose complex construction only allows for limited series – has been produced as a second exclusive edition with the L.U.C 8HF Power Control black ceramic and titanium Diamond-Like-Carbon (DLC) timepiece powered by the L.U.C 01.09-L movement, before being used in a Superfast Power Control Porsche 919 HF watch edition equipped with the 01.11-M movement.

After disseminating its precision in the L.U.C Haute Horlogerie collections and the sporty Superfast lines, Chopard's high-frequency movement evolved into two exclusive versions within the Alpine Eagle collection in 2021 and 2023.

More technical and more complex to produce than a movement with a conventional escapement, Chopard Calibre 01.41C equips this new Alpine Eagle 41 SL Cadence 8HF model. Consistent with the watch exterior, its mainplate and bridges are also made from ceramicised titanium and feature the same blackened finish. Like its predecessors, the exceptional precision of this movement is chronometer-certified by the Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute.

The feat and the material

Chopard also uses the properties of monocrystalline silicon to make the most of this 8 Hertz frequency. This light and self-lubricating material is used for the pallet-lever, the escape-wheel and the impulse-pin: in other words, all the components that are subject to high friction, which is thus reduced to a minimum.

The lightness of silicon, its tribological properties and the freedom offered by its manufacturing technology have enabled Chopard to develop an escapement dedicated to high frequencies without resulting in increased energy consumption.

Chopard Calibre 01.14-C has a 60-hour power reserve, a remarkable degree of autonomy generally incompatible with high frequencies. The development endeavours undertaken in the Manufacture’s watchmaking workshops, several patents and the technologies employed have made it possible to reconcile apparently contractionary objectives: chronometry, autonomy and reliability. Now interpreted in the inimitable casual chic Alpine Eagle style, this high-frequency watch enters a select circle of exceptional chronometers.

Pure design

This model retains the Alpine Eagle signature codes, while taking its aesthetic slightly further thanks to a subtle anthracite monochrome and special finishes. The case band and bezel are bead-blasted, as are the case chamfers and the eight screws. This sandblasted appearance extends into the texture of the rubber strap adding suppleness and comfort, available in a black version as well as two other options: one in orange rubber and the other in black calfskin with orange stitching.

The stamped dial features a motif evoking the eagle's iris, a direct tribute to the piercing vision of the majestic birds of prey that inspired the collection. Its Pitch Black colour takes its cue from the intense darkness of mountain nights when wild nature reclaims its rights. Against the deep darkness of this backdrop, both the orange seconds hand – with its eagle-feather-shaped counterweight – as well as the matching minutes track endow the entire dial with an elegant, eminently legible contrast and an even sportier look.

The lower section of the dial features the dynamic arrow-shaped logo in orange that is the unique signature of Chopard high-frequency watches.

CHOPARD – L.U.C Heritage EHG Moon 122 Edition

 

  

CHOPARD – L.U.C Heritage EHG Moon Aventurine Dial 44 mm Rose Gold 200th Anniversary Edition 2025   

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

 Celebrating the 200th anniversary of the Geneva School of Watchmaking (EHG), Chopard is unveiling its new L.U.C Heritage EHG Moon 122 model in ethical 18-carat rose gold. Epitomising the Manufacture's artisanal excellence, this 20-piece limited edition is equipped with the new manual-winding chronometer-certified L.U.C Calibre 63.04-L and bears the prestigious Poinçon de Genève quality hallmark. It is also fitted with an astronomical moonphase display requiring a one-day correction only once every 122 years.

Adorned with impressions of constellations, its elegant aventurine dial provides a striking rendering of the night sky’s natural beauty. Presenting a glowing tribute to ancestral watchmaking skills and their perpetuation, the L.U.C Heritage EHG Moon 122 model underlines Chopard's dedication to training the next generations of watchmakers.

An astronomically accurate moonphase movement

The calibres in the L.U.C collection are all crafted in Chopard’s Haute Horlogerie workshops. The Manufacture’s unparalleled artisanal skills mastered in-house enable it to offer timepieces that are technically and aesthetically unique. The new L.U.C 63.04-L movement powering the L.U.C Heritage EHG Moon 122 is a variation of manual-winding L.U.C Calibre 63.01-L. Its chronometric precision is certified by the Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC). 

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

For the first time, Chopard's astronomical moonphase module is added to the structure of this high-precision calibre. Unlike a standard moon phase needing adjustment every two years and seven months, the astronomical moon requires a one-day adjustment just once every 122 years and 45 days. On the scale of a lunar cycle lasting from one new moon to the next, the error between the real trajectory of the moon and Chopard’s astronomical moon phase is just 57 seconds – an authentic technical feat achieved by the master watchmakers of the Manufacture.

Chopard's commitment to passing on expertise

The Geneva School of Watchmaking celebrated its 200th anniversary in 2024. Building on its partnership since 2004 with this institution dedicated to perpetuating watchmaking expertise, Chopard is delighted to present the L.U.C Heritage EHG Moon 122. The movement of this outstanding new model draws cues from the calibre that Chopard supplies to the school to enable each apprentice to create their graduation timepiece during their fourth year of training. Chopard thus contributes to the EHG’s mission which is expressed through consistently broadening the wider watchmaking community, passing on traditional expertise and motivating generations of students.

For over 20 years, Chopard has annually gifted a dozen final-year students a ‘school-calibre’ (L.U.C 06.01-L, which itself inspired the L.U.C 63.01-L movement) defined in collaboration with the EHG. Fruitful discussions between Chopard and the EHG led to the creation of a kit of finished and partially finished components, offering students the opportunity to perfect their decorative and operational techniques as part of the school's educational programme. As part of the school’s 200th anniversary celebrations, Chopard and the EHG jointly decided that the astronomical moonphase module would be added to the base calibre for watchmakers wishing to continue their studies for an additional year to become watch repair specialists.

The history of our family is the cornerstone of Chopard, laid by artisans and passed down from generation to generation. This expertise is precious. Training is the only way to guarantee the continuity of these ancestral watchmaking and jewellery arts. Without passing on know-how, the future of these professions dedicated to beauty is not assured”, explains Chopard’s Co-President Karl-Friedrich Scheufele.

A timepiece inspired by the Manufacture’s horological heritage

Embodying artisanal watchmaking traditions and the need to pass them on, a movement as refined as this could only be housed in a case inspired by the Maison’s horological heritage. Combining tradition and modernity, this case in ethical 18-carat rose gold features rounded shapes reminiscent of the hunter-type exteriors of pocket watches designed in the 19th century by Louis-Ulysse Chopard – hence the term ‘Heritage’ in the name of this new model. The case middle is elegantly satin-finished and vertical-brushed, while the bezel and case-back are mirror-polished. Its distinctive welded polished lugs evoke early wristwatches. In another reference to the Maison’s heritage, the crown is adorned with the L.U.C. logo recalling a historical Chopard logo.

The expert artisans of the Manufacture have enhanced the astronomical moon phase at 3 o'clock with a hand-hammered and engraved depiction of the Moon on a rose gold and aventurine indicator, creating a fascinating interpretation of the lunar cycles. At 9 o'clock, the same meticulous care and excellence has been applied to offering an original view of the globe observed from the North Pole: a miniature sculpture of the Earth in gold with intense blue lacquer-filled oceans adding depth and refinement to the portrayal. Adorned with white transfers mainly depicting the constellations of the Northern hemisphere, an exquisite aventurine dial on a gold base sets the perfect finishing touch to the ethereal beauty of this extraordinary moon phase.

The elegance and excellence of this remarkably rounded, curvaceous timepiece – equipped with its in-house movement and enhanced with deftly handcrafted finishing – is rewarded by the prestigious Poinçon de Genève quality hallmark. Its sophistication is such that it will be issued in a numbered 20-piece limited edition, thereby accentuating its appeal to connoisseurs of exceptional watchmaking.

CHOPARD – L.U.C Flying T Twin Perpetual "Forest Green" Yellow Gold

  

CHOPARD – L.U.C  Flying T Twin Perpetual "Forest Green" 40,50 mm Yellow Gold 2025   

Chopard Manufacture is laying a new milestone in its history with L.U.C Calibre 96.36 L, an original high complication mo vement pairing a flying tourbillon and a perpetual calendar with large date display. The L.U.C Flying T Twin Perpetual timepiece reflects the finest expertise and innovation cultivated by the Maison’s workshops It features a case in ethical 18-carat yellow gold measuring 40.5 millimetres in diameter, with a slender, bassiné profile. 

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO 

This aesthetic refinement extends to the highly legible Forest Green dial in hand guilloché gold and an ingenious interchangeable strap system treats the watch to a variety of styles. While the movement’s accuracy is chronometer certified, the high quality finishing of this exceptional model has also earned it Poinçon de Genève recognition.

L.U.C Calibre 96.36 L: an high complication movement

The art of Chopard Manufacture consists in appropriating complications by enriching them with its distinctive innovative vision, as well as assembling them in new and ingenious ways. 

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

The history of Chopard Manufacture since 1996 has been dotted with landmark innovative models, the most recent of which is L.U.C Calibre 96.36 L.

L.U.C Calibre 96.36 L

In 2013, the L.U.C Perpetual T model, Chopard's first tourbillon with perpetual calendar, made its mark on the history of the Manufacture. Six years later, it was followed by the no less innovative L.U.C Flying T Twin, constituting the Manufacture's first timepiece with flying tourbillon and automatic winding, as well as being the only one in its category to receive both Poinçon de Genève and chronometer certification.

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

Today, the L.U.C 96.36 L movement represents the culmination of these innovations. Illustrating the Manufacture's constant quest to excel, it unites the finest previous feats in an unprecedented technical development involving no fewer than 319 components. 

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

Thanks to the micro rotor and Chopard Twin tech nology ’s two stacked barrels, the 6 mm thick movement associates the lightness of a flying tourbillon with all the gear trains enabling this model to provide day of the week and large date displays, as well as a month indication, requiring no manual adjust ments to keep track of variable month lengths and leap years. 

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

The perpetual calendar will need only a one day correction on March 1st, 2100 not because of a fault in the mechanism, but due to the Gregorian calendar which stipulates that centuries are leap years only if divisible by 400. The movement’s accuracy also ensures instantaneous display of all the perpetual calendar indications.

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

Distinguished by the absence of an upper bridge, the flying tourbillon of the L.U.C Flying T Twin Perpetual timepiece enables unobstructed views. Equipped with a stop second function enabling the time to be set to the exact second, the tourbillon enhances the movement’s accuracy. This precision is chronometer certified by the COSC ( Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute ), as is the case for all L.U.C calibres with a seconds indication in this instance located on the tourbillon carriage. 

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

A demonstration of technical virtuosity, the tourbillon invented in the 18th century to eliminate the influence of the Earth's gravity and isochronous forces is one of the most sophisticated horological complications. Chopard's flying tourbillon stems from several years of research and development, testifying to the Manufacture’s maturity.

  Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

Finally, thanks to the energy accumulated in the two stacked barrels using Chopard Twin technology, the L.U.C Flying T Twin Perpetual timepiece is endowed with a 65-hour power reserve.

The Poinçon de Genève : a guarantee of excellence

The L.U.C Flying T Twin Perpetual model testifies to the finest craftsmanship cultivated by Chopard. Several hundred made to measure tools are involved in reworking and hand trimming each rough cut component, before manually decorating it using traditional skills even if it is destined to remain concealed beneath a bridge. 

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

Each creation is successively enhanced by chamfering, satin brushing, polishing, circular graining and Côtes de Genève patterns, followed by individual testing and hand assembly in the workshops. 

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

The prestigious Poinçon de Genève quality hallmark, to which Chopard has been loyal for many years, attests to this degree of artisanal skill and meticulous care. This aesthetic and technical certification is validated by an independent body and governed by a law instated by the Canton of Geneva. It im poses peerless criteria of excellence encompassing the case and movement, including their structure, appearance and precision. Since the launch of its first flying tourbillon calibre in 2019, all Chopard watch models equipped with it from the L.U.C Flying T Twin model to the Alpine Eagle Flying Tourbillon have earned this prestigious label of excellence. 

A slimmer, reshaped case

The L.U.C Flying T Twin Perpetual is the first high complication L.U.C model to benefit from the flying tourbillon and comes with a new case featuring a subtly refined design whose sophistication is on a par with the movement finishing. 

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

At 40.5 millimetres in diameter and 11.6 millimetres thick, it fits smoothly on any wrist. The case features a bassine shape, meaning its base is narrower than its domed, polished bezel. Reflecting craftsmanship inspired by the pocket watches that emerged from Louis Ulysse Chopard’s creative heritage in the 19th century, this distinctive profile creates an impressive sense of aesthetic refinement.

This new case with its vertical satin brushed sides is paired with a curved, fluted crown that is not only elegant but also easy to handle. The slightly domed sapphire crystal perfectly matches the curves of the bezel, giving the watch a rounded, harmonious profile. Another sign of fine craftsmanship is that the lugs are made separately before being welded to the case to ensure a perfect aesthetic result.

Crafted in ethical gold, this reshaped case makes the L.U.C Flying T Twin Perpetual a timeless object for watchmaking connoisseurs and paves the way for the aesthetics of future timepieces in the collection.

The hand guilloché dial: a strong commitment to craftsmanship

Since the first L.U.C 1860 timepiece was presented in 1997, dials for L.U.C models have perpetuated a legacy reflecting the purest watchmaking tradition, in which the art of guilloché has become a collection signature. 

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

Having teetered on the brink of extinction during the 1990s, this age old craft has survived thanks to the efforts of Manufactures such as Chopard, which still owns a few rare guilloché lathes with which specialised artisans guide their burins over fine metal surfaces to adorn them with repeating patterns accurate to a tenth of a millimetre.

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

Featuring a deep Forest Green shade, the dial of this new creation is itself naturally guilloché with a sunburst pattern radiating from the flying tourbillon opening at 6 o'clock, the focal point of this timepiece.

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

A concentric snailed pattern runs around the dial periphery, below the minutes track. The hands and hour markers are in yellow gold. The Chopard perpetual calendar highlights the most frequently requested indication the date through a broad twin aperture at 12 o'clock, while the two gold rimmed perpetual calendar counters are also snailed, with the exception of the central section of one located at 9 o'clock. The latter is dedicated to the 24 hour indicator, which also serves as a day/night display. 

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

The upper part (day) bears a sunburst pattern symbolising the presence of the Sun while the lower section is engraved with a horizontal motif evoking the serenity of the night. Ultimately, the arrangement of each indication is b oth aesthetically appealing and perfectly legible.

Interchangeable straps : a combination for every occasion

For the first time in the Chopard collections, this new model is equipped with an interchangeable strap system enabling its owner to vary styles and adapt to different outfits, occasions and activities. This extremely convenient new system is designed for quick, tool free swap outs via the case middle and clasp 

 Click, to see the large size. ▶ BIG FOTO

The aim is to guarantee the user friendliness and wearer comfort that are core to the Chopard philosophy. In addition to the two alligator leather and calfskin straps supplied with the tim epiece, each Chopard boutique will offer an assortment of additional straps in a variety of textures and colours.

The L.U.C collection: watchmaking excellence

In 1997, Chopard Manufacture launched the first watch to emerge from its watchmaking workshops: the L.U.C 1860, equipped with the L.U.C 96.01 L movement. Since then, through the L.U.C collection, it has accumulated mastery of all the major horological complications. Between Fleurier and Geneva, Chopard Manufacture conceives, develops, manufactures, assembles, decorates and certifies all its timepieces.
