Description

Inspired by a historical Chopard model reinterpreted by three generations of men from the Scheufele family, the Alpine Eagle collection welcomes today a new 33 mm-diameter model crafted in ethical 18-carat yellow gold, adorned with a dial in an original “Maritime Blue” colour. Inspired by the palette of natural colours composing the beauty of the Alpine landscape, "Maritime Blue" is reminiscent of the azure waters of the Mediterranean Sea bordering the southern slopes of the Alps. The self-winding 09.01-C movement stems from developments by Chopard Manufacture and is COSC certified, a rare feature for such a small diameter. The Alpine Eagle 33 model is faithful to its aesthetic: a round case with stylised sides, a crown engraved with the compass rose, a bezel with eight functional screws set at a tangent, a stamped dial featuring deep colours, and finally a 18-carat ethical yellow gold bracelet that is particularly comfortable on the wrist.

Sustainability

Gold is an essential material in our production. This is why we have made special efforts to ensure that one of the major steps in our journey towards sustainable luxury is sourcing gold mined responsibly for all of our watch and jewelry production. This goal was achieved in July 2018, when our workshops began using 100% ethical gold that meets the most stringent international environmental and social standards. Specifically, our ethical gold comes from two transparent and traceable systems: responsibly produced artisanal gold and recycled gold certified by the Responsible Jewellery Council (RJC). Artisanal and small-scale mining involves millions of men and women around the world, individuals working alone, with their families, or in cooperatives, using basic exploration, extraction, and processing methods. Responsible extraction of artisanal and small-scale produced gold is essential to our sourcing strategy, as it allows us to achieve full traceability from the mine to the finished product and contribute to significant socio-economic and environmental impact. The RJC's CoC standard defines the requirements for identifying and tracking "eligible materials," including certified recycled gold from legitimate sources. Since 1978, we have been one of the first watch and jewelry manufacturers to have our own foundry. Thanks to this independent approach, we are now not only able to guarantee the origin of the gold we use in our workshops, but also to remelt our production scraps into gold.
