Nature and the Alps are Chopard's most precious inspiration, with the Alpine environment surrounding the Manufacture playing a key role
In partnering with the Eagle Wings Foundation, Chopard wishes to promote a more sustainable way of life, while raising awareness of Mother Nature's timely needs. Rapid action is necessary to protect the wildlife at risk in an ever-changing environment. Chopard has pledged to work with the foundation to re-introduce the Golden Eagle to its natural Alpine habitat.

* - The date when humanity has reached a point of overshooting" the Earth's resources by consuming more than the planet is capable of regenerating in one year."
When it comes to the world's glaciers, humanity is racing against the clock. To address this global concern, Chopard and Eagle Wings have decided to host an Alpine Eagle Tour. Within this context, we sent a Golden Eagle to the five highest summits of the Alps and timed its descent.
This eagle was equipped with a sensor to track vital environmental data.
