Catalogue note
An exceptional testament to Chopard’s golden era of jewelry watchmaking, this vintage 18K yellow gold wristwatch embodies the bold glamour and refined textures of late 20th-century luxury design. The timepiece centers on a beautifully proportioned, rounded square case bordered by a meticulously calibrated bezel of factory-set single-cut diamonds, which brilliantly accents the warm tones of the satin-finished monochrome dial. Elevating the piece from a timepiece to an exquisite artifact of wearable art is its integrated Milanaise mesh bracelet, which demonstrates the masterfully executed, fluid goldsmithing that defined the house's high-jewelry productions during the 1970s and 1980s. Characterized by its sleek, ultra-thin profile and minimalist aesthetic, this elegant cocktail watch represents a timeless marriage of Swiss mechanical reliability and transcendent European style, making it a highly collectable acquisition for connoisseurs of vintage horology.
