To mark this jubilee year, the iconic collection welcomes a mechanical interpretation in the shape of the new Happy Sport Medium Automatic. Caroline Scheufele famously created one of the most enduring Chopard bestsellers in 1993 and the design has been revisited over and over again throughout the last two decades, offering occasionally humorous and consistently elegant ways to enjoy this popular model. It has been ascribed many new names, such as Happy Beach, La Vie en Rose, Happy Spirit, Mystery Pink, and it has always been adored by discerning women all over the world. Now, in celebrating the finest anniversary of its diamonds moving freely just a fewmillimetres above exquisite watch dials, Chopard unveils the new Happy Sport Medium Automatic. The famous moving diamonds – one of the most fascinating jewellery innovations in recent decades – adds an unprecedented mechanical dimension to their entrancing natural charm. Elegant, sophisticated and entirely loyal to the spirit of the original Happy Sport, the newHappy Sport MediumAutomatic reveals a guilloché silver-toned dial, a tribute to the decorative traditions of classical watchmaking and a perfect backdrop against which to highlight the seven moving diamonds. On the back, a sapphire crystal provides a chance to admire its mechanical self-winding movement adorned with a straight Côtes de Genève motif also known as Geneva stripes. Its 36 mm-diameter steel or 18-karat rose gold case is water-resistant to 30 metres and fitted with an alligator leather strap or an 18ct rose gold bracelet. It’s a birthday special watch that would make a perfect present for admirers of Chopard. Happy Sport M e d i u m A u t o m a t i c
