Cool as ice

Chopard's sporty-chic Alpine Eagle looks even more cool this winter with the new Frozen models, inspired by glaciers, colourful skies and everlasting snows of the immaculate, glistening Alpine peaks.

Ethical white gold versions of the 41mm Alpine Eagle Frozen.

"Alpine Eagle Frozen is directly inspired by Alpine glaciers and the way they brilliantly reflect the sunshine. Each diamond used on this timepiece sparkles like a snowflake that has settled on the mountain tops," says Karl-Friedrich Scheufele, Chopard's co-president.

Besides diamonds, blue or rainbow-coloured sapphires illuminate the watches, which showcase Chopard's art of gemsetting.

In-house artisans have patiently paved the entire case, the dial and each bracelet link with hundreds of diamonds. The watch bezel, a distinctive characteristic of the collection with its eight indexed screws, is also adorned with baguette-cut precious stones, sapphires or multicoloured sapphires in a rainbow-hued gradient.

Lauched in 2019, the Alpine Eagle collection already includes numerous variations in Small (36mm), Large (41mm) and Extra-Large sizes with a chronograph movement (44mm), in Lucent Steel A223 and/or ethical gold, as well as an exclusive model in titanium equipped with a high-frequency movement.

The Alpine Eagle Frozen collection offers two small models in ethical rose gold and four large variations in ethical white or rose gold. On the back of the watches, the sapphire crystal reveals the mechanical self-winding movement providing a power reserve of 42 or 60 hours.
