The Chopard Happy Sport collection welcomes three new creations in a delightful palette of blue. These sporty-chic watches feature a modern look and suggest a more relaxed way of wearing diamonds by integrating them into the hectic pace of everyday life. The first model, in steel with a 30 mm diameter, is adorned with a dial whose sky blue hue serves as a backdrop to the whirl of three dancing diamonds. The two other timepieces, with their larger 36 mm diameter, combine stainless steel with details in ethical 18-carat rose gold, while their dials and leather straps are attired in different shades of blue.
Chopard Happy Sport embodies the daring attitude of a look that is all about blending comfort and elegance. Whether women are sporting jeans and trainers or rocking a little black dress and heels, the timepieces in this collection follow them in every activity, placing the glamour of dancing diamonds front and centre. The gems sparkle vivaciously above the dial like a mischievous wink. Time seems to stand still when gazing at the Happy Sport watch to observe the perpetually reinvented choreography of these tiny diamonds swirling in a conscious stream of joie de vivre.
Three dancing diamonds are at the heart of a 30 mm-diameter watch designed to fit even the slimmest wrist. From case to bracelet, it is made entirely of stainless steel, framing a softly luminous sky-blue dial.
A second edition of the Happy Sport watch plays on the marriage of materials with a 36 mm-diameter case in stainless steel paired with a crown and cabochons in ethical 18-carat rose gold. The navy blue dial with its five twirling diamonds matches the colour of the leather strap. Both the hour-markers and the hands are gilded to reflect the tone of the crown and cabochons.
Finally, in a third and final 36 mm version, ethical 18-carat rose gold adorns the bezel in addition to the crown and cabochons. The textured mother-of-pearl dial enables a fascinating blue colour gradient, setting the stage for the whirl of seven dancing diamonds.
Happy Sport: a daring, free-spirited creation.
In 1993, capturing the spirit of the age, Caroline Scheufele (Co-President and Artistic Director of Chopard) devised a sports watch based on the unprecedented combination of steel and diamonds. The Happy Sport was the result of this daring move. Since then, it has never ceased to celebrate joie de vivre and a free-spirited attitude that women daily reinvent to conquer the world. The Chopard Happy Sport watch is a full-fledged show in which the wearer plays an indispensable role: her own movements provide the momentum for the dancing diamonds and this perpetually recomposed tableau. A metaphor for the impetus that the 20th century gave to women’s emancipation, the collection reflects this fast-paced life and has consistently lent itself to infinitely varied transformations.
