Chopard presents the L.U.C Skull One, a 100-piece limited-edition adorned with a Mexican calavera as a tribute to the Day of the Dead. Clad in a beautiful combination of dark hues thanks to a black dial with lacquered finishes and gilded hour-markers, the L.U.C Skull One features a 40 mm case in beadblasted DLC stainless steel and a brown calfskin leather strap. Beneath this mischievous death mask beats the L.U.C 96.53-L mechanical movement with automatic winding, crafted by Chopard Manufacture Artisans.

A many-splendoured appearance for the ‘jeweller to the stars’

 November 2020 – Chopard is announcing its participation in the film Rebecca, directed by Ben Wheatley and available since October 21^st 2020 on Netflix. In this adaptation of the eponymous novel written in 1938 by Daphne de Maurier, Chopard watch and jewellery creations adorn the characters played by Lily James, Keeley Hawes and Armie Hammer. An artistic collaboration giving the Maison an opportunity to reaffirm its love of cinema and all the emotions it arouses.

Brescia, Thursday 22nd October 2020 – For the 32nd consecutive year, Chopard lined up at the start of this new edition of the 1000 Miglia rally as main partner and official timekeeper. Traditionally organised in May, the car race regarded as "the world’s most beautiful" is being held this year from October 22nd to 25th, in compliance with the prevailing public health regulations. 

The quintessence of Urushi, the ancestral Japanese lacquering art, joins with supremely refined Swiss watchmaking in celebrating Vietnamese culture. Three extremely limited editions of the L.U.C XP timepiece, available exclusively in Chopard’s Vietnam boutiques, have been added to the Maison’s Haute Horlogerie collection. Crafted in ethical 18-carat rose gold and powered by the ultra-thin L.U.C 96.17-L movement, the L.U.C XP Urushi Vietnam Edition depicts the flow of time on lacquered dials richly decorated with national heritage symbols. An encounter between several artistic crafts brilliantly orchestrated by Chopard.

As a great lover of flora and fauna, my inspiration for this year’s Red Carpet came from Mother Nature herself. From the exotic gardens of the East to the glistening Arctic North, to crystal blue oceans and abundant jungle vegetation. Then back home, surrounded by the Swiss mountains, lakes and meadows, bejewelled creations came to life.

Contemporary, refined and assertive, the new Alpine Eagle sports chic timepiece collection is a state-of-the-art reinterpretation of the St. Moritz, the first watch created in 1980 by Karl-Friedrich Scheufele, now co-president of Chopard. Imagined and personally designed by him, Alpine Eagle is driven by his passion for the Alps and by the lofty power of the eagle that reigns supreme there.

A fervent environmental activist sensitive to the Journey towards Sustainable Luxury pursued by Chopard since 2013, Marion Cotillard came up with the idea of creating a jewellery set that would embody both her style and her personal idea of responsible jewellery. She wished to share this project with her long-time friend Caroline Scheufele, Co-President and Artistic Director of Chopard, who immediately agreed to devote the expertise of her ateliers to such a purpose. The Oscar-winning actress thus passionately devoted herself to this project, which reflects a fairer form of luxury that demonstrates concern for the men and women who mine raw materials.

With the L.U.C XP Il Sarto Kiton timepiece, Chopard is introducing its first collaboration with the Kiton Ateliers, masters of Italian tailoring. This strictly limited edition of 100 ultra-flat watches in beadblasted DLC-coated steel is soberly attired with a houndstooth-patterned dial and a slate-coloured cashmere strap lined with red alligator leather.

Life naturally harbours the joy of perpetual motion, as gracefully expressed through the subtle movement of a talisman jewel: the Happy Spirit collection symbolises the cardinal values permeating the Maison Chopard. A jewellery collection imbued with multiple artistic sources, which it vividly embodies through its light effects and pure lines.

Few Maisons can claim complete control of all watchmaking and jewellery professions. Chopard is one of these select few. Thanks to its skilful Artisans, experts in their respective fields, Chopard workshops are home to a full range of talents giving rise to the most complex watches and the most extraordinary jewellery.
