Chopard

Hi,

Some of those pieces are really quite beautiful.  I have been a watch enthusiast for years, however I must admit I have only recently discovered Chopard.

I know that the "Swiss Triangle" comprising of Patek, Audemars and Vacheron have long been regarded as the leading watch makers.  Breguet made some fine pieces and pioneered the wrist watch.  However, I have recently become drawn to the Chopard brand.

Your comment would be appreciated on  where Chopard fits in with the above mentioned hierachy of Swiss watch makers.  Also, I want to know about the movements,  are they manufactured in house or are they supplied by the likes of IWC.?

I can see that they are made beautifully

 

Thank you

Kind Regards

Sajid

. . . auto museum in '72: a yellow 1910 Mercer roadster had just been restored, and I saw the mechanics cranking it up for the first time in decades. At the time, I would have been pleased as punch to drive that car just once; today, I think I'd get a big...
