TimeForArt provides a fresh opportunity for Chopard to showcase the full extent of its creativity through this one-of-a-kind timepiece. The new Alpine Eagle 41 XP model combines the pure lines of an iconic creation from the Maison with an exceptional straw marquetry dial crafted using artisanal expertise perfected within Chopard’s in-house workshops. Created by a decoration Artisan from the Manufacture specially trained in this 17th-century technique, the dial of this new model is a first for Chopard. Each intricately crafted strand takes the shape of a feather, embodying the collection’s noble identity. Meticulously arranged in varying sizes, thicknesses, and shades, the strands create a stunning ensemble reminiscent of an eagle’s eye view soaring over the skyscrapers of New York City – the iconic location for the upcoming TimeForArt auction.
The Alpine Eagle collection reflects Chopard’s creative richness and visionary spirit in equal measure, along with inspiration drawn from the power of Nature. The one-of-a-kind Alpine Eagle 41 XP remains true to this approach: a round case with stylised sides, a crown engraved with a compass rose, a bezel with eight functional indexed screws, luminescent indications, a comfortable metal bracelet and above all, a state-of-the-art material: Lucent Steel™. This innovative steel alloy made with an 80% recycling rate was developed by Chopard for its robustness and incomparable brilliance obtained through a meticulous remelting process.
The Alpine Eagle 41 XP model is endowed with pure, sleek lines and harmonious proportions. Measuring 41 millimeters in diameter and just eight millimeters thick, its case, featuring a slimmed-down bezel and sides, provides a wide opening onto the unprecedented dial. The thinness of the case is made possible by the use of the in-house L.U.C 96.17-L movement, itself measuring just 3.30 mm thick. This self-winding caliber is equipped with a 22-carat gold off-center micro-rotor. Its high inertia enables it to wind the two stacked barrels of Chopard Twin technology, which store the energy needed to give the Alpine Eagle 41 XP Time For Art a total 65-hour power reserve.
