Chopard Alpine Eagle
Loyal fans of the Chopard brand are of course familiar with the legendary St. Moritz watch model, which is based on a design from 1980. The Chopard Alpine Eagle follows in the footsteps of the popular St. Moritz timepiece and is a successful attempt to reinterpret the classic.

The Chopard Alpine Eagle collection - a tribute to the Alps
The vision behind the Chopard Alpine Eagle is expressed in the name of the watch collection. The noble timepieces are a tribute to the Alps with their majestic heights and to the stately eagle that is at home there. Power, majesty, courage, the force of nature and pride are thus in the DNA of the Alpine Eagle product line, which includes an exquisite selection of extremely robust and precise timepieces for men and women.
Technical data on the Chopard Alpine Eagle
With diameters ranging from 33 to 44 millimeters and a COSC-certified automatic movement “under the hood”, the Chopard Alpine Eagle presents itself as a seemingly indestructible measuring instrument for outdoorsmen, adventurers and summiteers. Thanks to its 60-hour power reserve, the watch remains in constant motion when worn regularly, while its water resistance to 100 meters means it can withstand the odd unexpected rain shower unscathed.
If visibility is poor on rough terrain, the Chopard Alpine Eagle with its luminescent hands and indices remains perfectly legible. Depending on the reference, it comes with various complications that are extremely useful when out and about in the great outdoors. For example, the watch is available with a date window that sits boldly between 4 and 5 o'clock, as a highly functional chronograph or with small seconds.
Design: One watch, many nuances
The design of the Chopard Alpine Eagle evokes many associations with the Alps and the eagle soaring above them. The solid Lucent Steel A223 from which the watches are made is reminiscent of rough rock faces, for example, with its rough structure. At the same time, the precious, hypoallergenic metal shines like sunlight falling on a thick blanket of snow. The dial of some models is particularly eye-catching: it has a special surface structure that is based on the appearance of an eagle's iris.
Another striking feature of all Alpin Eagle timepieces are the visible screws on the case, which are arranged in four pairs. In the ladies' models, these stand in stark contrast to the diamonds surrounding them - here the roughness of the Alps symbolically meets the beauty of nature there. Compared to this, the larger men's models appear almost simple despite the Roman numerals and shiny stainless steel row on the link bracelet. They focus on pure sportiness and completely dispense with playful, ornate elements.
Ultimately, the Alpine Eagle from Chopard is a true quick-change artist: it functions both as an elegant, feminine accessory with diamonds and a mother-of-pearl dial and as a sporty, robust companion that can withstand any outdoor adventure.
