Celebrating its enduring partnership with Seddiqi, Chopard presents the Alpine Eagle 41 Darshan Edition, an exclusive UAE limited series crafted in a remarkable blend of beauty, resilience, and heritage. Limited to just 25 pieces, this 41mm timepiece features Chopard’s ultra-durable, highly reflective Lucent Steel™ and a dial inspired by the alpine slate stone, exuding the natural essence of the collection’s namesake. Powered by the precision-certified Chopard 01.15-C movement, the Alpine Eagle 41 Darshan speaks to Chopard’s tradition of excellence and craftsmanship.
Inspired by Great Heights and a Legacy of Flight
Named after an eagle that soared from the top of Dubai’s Burj Khalifa to record the highest flight from a man-made structure, the Darshan Edition carries a profound symbolism. “Darshan” embodies a concept of direct connection with the divine, aptly fitting the legacy of the eagle and the symbolic heights this timepiece represents. This model celebrates both Chopard’s design for modern-day visionaries and the Alpine Eagle Foundation, co-founded by Chopard Co-President Karl-Friedrich Scheufele and eagle expert Jacques-Olivier Travers, whose mission is to safeguard the Alpine ecosystem. Together, they’ve embarked on projects to educate and inspire about the fragility and beauty of alpine environments.
A Dial Rooted in Nature’s Textures
This timepiece captures the textures of the Alpine slate in its dial, crafted with detail to evoke the rugged beauty of mountain landscapes. The gold-finished hour markers and hands, equipped with Super-LumiNova® Grade X1, ensure visibility across day and night. This sophisticated yet sporty design stands out as a nod to the wild Alpine landscapes that continue to inspire the collection.
Powered by Precision with the Chopard 01.15-C Movement
The Alpine Eagle 41 Darshan showcases the COSC-certified Chopard 01.15-C automatic movement. Engineered in Chopard’s own workshops and visible through a sapphire crystal case-back, this movement highlights the brand’s commitment to precise timekeeping. It offers a 60-hour power reserve and includes a stop-seconds function for exact time setting, underscoring the piece’s standard of precision and technical refinement.
