Nature guides the hand of Chopard watchmakers. The Alpine Eagle Swiss watch is a symphony of exquisite details, each one inspired by the majesty of the Alps and the Eagle.

[Wei Koh] The watch is everything you have worked for the last 25 years towards, it's the manufacture movement, it's also the ethics with your first use of recycled steel. It's the revival of an icon, but also to create the future.

[Wei Koh] I love the story in which... Actually, there's two parallel stories. One about your father when he was a young man, and one that followed, your story related to this watch, and how they intersect as well.

[Karl-Friedrich Scheufele] I tried to convince my father that we needed to diversify our production. We should be looking at doing a stainless steel watch. If we work it the way we work gold, it can be a beautiful sports watch.

[Karl Fritz Scheufele] When I first arrived onto the Alpine Eagle project, I wanted everything to go quickly, I said we'll have to do this, this and then we'll do this. And now, actually, I'm slowly realizing that no, actually, we should let people enjoy the first versions, understand the story, and I think it's an atmosphere that promotes authenticity, as we said, and promotes creativity as well. 


[Wei Koh] I can't think of anything more authentic than a father and a son creating a watch together which has now become really a part of the future of Chopard.
