Yet another example of Chopard’s equal mastery of watchmaking performance and jewellery design, the latest Happy Sport once again showcases its artisans’ peerless virtuosity.

Nestled in a Lucent Steel™ case, the state-of-the-art PVD guilloché dial in this model features a fascinating colour metamorphosis from blue to iridescent purple, like the sky when night begins giving way to dawn.

Happy Sport, story of a watch icon Spotlight on 1993 when Chopard Co-President Caroline Scheufele effectively captured the spirit of the times in designing a sports watch based on an original association between the robustness of steel and the nobility of diamonds. Ensuring that each diamond in its spinning-top capsule is arranged in such a way that its dance is never hindered is technical feat that only a few choreography artisans are capable of achieving.
Thus embodying unprecedented daring, the Happy Sport was born, epitomising a noble legacy of sporty-chic style in an ever-changing choreography of dancing diamonds.
