L'Heure du Diamant

L’Heure du Diamant

Feminine and precious

With L'Heure du Diamant, Chopard masterfully captures the beauty of diamonds. Acknowledged masters in the realm of jewellery watches, the artisans of the Maison have orchestrated a meeting between contemporary design and the queen of precious stones. The collection is now enriched by a 26 mm-diameter jewellery watch in ethical gold, richly set with diamonds and fitted with a link bracelet. Powered by a mechanical manual-winding movement, this talisman timepiece bears witness to the energy emerging from a perfect alchemist’s blend of form and matter.

The subtle balance between the art of jewellery-making and watchmaking expertise enables L'Heure du Diamant to combine intelligence and beauty, thereby offering the perfect expression of today's femininity. The new timepiece joining the collection is fresh demonstration of this reality. The absolute purity of the diamond is majestically highlighted by an emblematic gemsetting technique called crown setting, which exalts the beauty of each stone by allowing the light to blaze through. This ribbon composed of more than two carats of brilliant-cut diamonds encircling the case lights up a dainty mother-of-pearl dial set with 12 brilliant-cut diamonds.

Crafted in ethical 18-carat white or rose ethical gold, this L'Heure du Diamant timepiece is paired with a link bracelet comfortably moulding the shape of the wrist. At its heart beats a mechanical manual-winding movement driving hours and minutes indications.

The Maison’s watchmaking heritage

For decades, jewellery watches have been one of the historic specialities of the Scheufele family, which now presides over the destiny of Chopard. At the exact intersection between beauty and precision, the L'Heure du Diamant collection reaps the benefits of this technical virtuosity dedicated to great artistic modernity. From designer to watchmaker, from jeweller to gemsetter, and from polisher to watchmaker, exponents of the full range of artistic crafts combine their talents in bringing these creations to life.
