A tireless traveller and insatiable creative spirit, Chopard
hopard draws inspiration for its latest creation from South America and the heart of the Inca civilization.
The dial cover is entirely set with brilliant-cut diamonds and turquoises in subtly varied shades. Its almost hypnotic radiance exudes an aura of mystery and seduction. What riches does it conceal? When the dial opens, the signature symbols of the Imperiale collection appear: Roman numerals, tapered hands reminiscent of combat daggers; as well as the famous motif evoking the embroideries adorning the hangings and cushions on which monarchs placed their insignia.
The latter pattern appears on the watch cover mosaic, set with diamonds on the bracelet lugs, as well as lending an original touch to the seconds display; while the dial centre is stamped with a radiant sunburst guilloché decoration in a nod to the Inca dynasty's fascination for this supreme heavenly body.
The case, in Fairmined 18kt white gold, measures 38mm x 12.5mm. It has an AR-coated sapphire crystal, a sapphire display back, and it is water resistant to 50 meters. Entirely set with diamonds, crown in 18kt white gold set with diamonds. Lugs set with 4 pear-cut diamonds.
Movement is the Swiss automatic Chopard in-house caliber L.U.C 96.12-L with 29 jewels, 28,800 vph and a power reserve of 65 hours. Bridges adorned with Côtes de Genève finishing.
Dial in white mother-of-pearl. Rhodiumed and sword-shaped central and minutes hands, small seconds hand picking up the Imperiale motif.
Straps in blue or turquoise damask picking up the Imperiale motif and lined with turquoise leather, or in turquoise alligator leather.
Thanks.
