Such is the case when we explore and glance through the window of some of the Elite glamour and glitz creations of Time.
1860, Louis-Ulysse Chopard establishes a high-precision watchmaking factory in Sonvilier, in the Jura region of Switzerland.
1937, Chopard relocates to Geneva and launches into the production of quality watches.
1963, Karl Scheufele takes over Chopard. He owns the German firm Karl Scheufele, founded in 1904 and specialized in watches (under the Eszeha brand name) and jewelry.
Production from both manufacturing entities continues under the Chopard brand.
Rest was a part of a great journey in history, as we unfold some of the gems of 2013, presented by Chopard.
Even though Chopard was a victim of a theft of $1Million reported at the Cannes Festival of 2103, a Glamorous party continued.
Observing the fine timepieces firstly, the Imperiale Chrono Black (top left) has a signature of details, alluring to the finest hours of the imperial age. Roman numerals, a dial delicate with arabesque motifs and embroidered cushions that monarchs used. The exquisitely curved hands cater to the daggers used in combat.
Imperiale Chrono All Black is machined from the finest steel in Chopard workshops, and then treated to a DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating, presenting a distinctive shiny black finish. This 40 mm watch driven by a mechanical self-winding movement is water-resistant to 50 metres.
From time to priceless precious world of jewelry, Chopard made a long time presence. Some of which today comes from - Jennifer Lawrence stuns on the red carpet at the 2013 Academy Awards held at the Dolby Theatre on Sunday (February 24) in Hollywood.
The 22-year-old actress looked amazing in a Dior Haute Couture dress, a Chopard jewels, a Roger Vivier clutch, and Brian Atwood shoes. Especially the long chain necklace hung low to the waist at the back which added the infinite sexiness and imagination!
