Chopard Watches:
Jewelry and Timepiece Rolled into One
Chopard watches are conceived through the merging of jewelry and innovative horology. Although watchmaking should logically come first, it was the concept of jewelry that greatly defines Chopard timepieces. Without a doubt, the main difference of Chopard from its contemporaries is the fact that it manufactures watches that bear a great resemblance to the luxury adornment pieces.
The Chopard brand of Swiss luxury watches was founded by Louis-Ulysse Chopard in the year 1860. It was the decision of the owner himself to manufacture timepieces with an inventive mindset. Chopard then started to produce watches of different variety through striking combinations of movements and materials. Even when the company was taken over by Karl Scheufele in 1863, Chopard's concepts in watchmaking continued to materialize in the future timepieces. The fact that Scheufele was also a skilled jeweller has eventually revealed the complete turning point in the manufacture of Swiss watches. Apparently, he had pioneered in the production of watches that integrates jewelry.

However, despite its association with jewelry items, Chopard has maintained the quality of the watches through the years. The “Qualité Fleurier” seal that is found in most Chopard watch copy is equivalent to the Geneva standards that set the highest horological quality. All the timepieces are painstakingly manufactured that one remarkable Chopard movement, the calibre 1.96, was recognized with a Geneva Seal. Indeed, with its complex mechanisms, the calibre 1.96 rightfully deserved such recognition.
Currently, Chopard specializes in nine collections, which include the Happy Diamonds, Happy Sport Ladies, L.U.C., and Millie Miglia. The Happy Diamonds collection has become so popular that it eventually established one of the trademarks of Chopard replica watches: diamonds floating between the sapphire transparent crystals. Interestingly, various cuts of diamonds are showcased in awide rangeof watches that the company produces.
Happy Sports Ladies is a collection of Chopard timepieces that is somewhat reminiscent to Happy Diamonds; albeit more versatile and trendy than itspredecessor. The Happy Sports Ladies' watches posses a sportyappeal and feminine charm. On the other hand, L.U.C. is an impressive collection of men's watches that suggest sporty lifestyle and classic elegance. Under this collection came the Lunar 1, a timepiece that has a perpetual calendar and moonphase display, and the Quattro watch that has a 9-day power reserve.
