Both elegant and sport-inspired, the new Alpine Eagle XL Chrono is a modern interpretation of the St. Moritz launched in 1980, the first watch designed by Karl-Friedrich Scheufele, today co-president of Chopard. Expressing its creator's passion for the Alps and inspired by the nobility of the eagle, this timepiece is crafted in Lucent Steel A223, and it features a chronometer-certified integrated chronograph movement with a flyback feature. Alpine Eagle pays tribute to today's eagles – those ambitious people who surpass themselves on a daily basis, and whose vision is an inspiration for their peers. Determined and avant-garde, they rise to tomorrow's challenges with verve, and are instinctively aware of the importance of environmental issues.
