Chopard Happy Sport 8245

Stainless Steel, Chopard Happy Sport Quartz Wristwatch, circa 1990's - 2000's

Chopard's Happy Sport was among the most successful gambles of 1990's watch design when Caroline Scheufele decided on setting diamonds free between two sapphire crystals rather than fixing them rigidly into the dial. The result was a watch that felt alive, the stones dancing with every wrist movement, transforming a sport watch into kinetic jewellery.
