Happy Sport, Imperiale and the jewellery line

Happy Sport is the watch Chopard is best known for, and the deepest part of our Chopard inventory: the moving diamonds first appeared in Happy Diamonds in 1976, and the sport version put them on a steel bracelet in 1993. Happy Diamonds and L'heure du diamant continue the jewellery-first idea, and Imperiale adds the amphora case and Roman numerals. Ice Cube is the geometric, more contemporary option.

L.U.C, Alpine Eagle and Mille Miglia

L.U.C is the manufacture line, named for founder Louis-Ulysse Chopard and made in Fleurier since 1996, with chronometer certification and Geneva Seal on several references. Alpine Eagle is the integrated-bracelet sports watch, built in the proprietary Lucent Steel with a dial textured like an eagle's iris. Mille Miglia is the racing chronograph tied to the Italian road race, often with Dunlop-tread rubber straps.

Sizing and wearability

Happy Sport runs from 30mm to 36mm and wears close to its number, so it works across a wide range of wrists. Alpine Eagle is offered in 36mm and 41mm from the same case design, which makes it one of the few genuinely unisex integrated-bracelet watches. L.U.C dress references stay classical at 39mm to 40mm. If you are buying unseen, send us a wrist measurement and we will tell you which case reads correctly.

Gold, condition and enquiries

Chopard has used 100% ethical gold across its production since 2018, which is worth knowing if provenance matters to you. We inspect every watch in-house, describe condition as we find it, and note box and papers where present. Diamond settings are identified as factory or aftermarket. Pieces shown as price on request are available and quoted on enquiry, and we buy and trade Chopard.
