Have you ever thought that a watch can carry such rich natural elements and design concepts? The birth of the Alpine Eagle watch is not only a tribute to the classics, but also a perfect display of the love and awe of the Alps. How it combines power and elegance, let’s explore the story behind this watch!
The birth and design concept of the Alpine Eagle watch
In 2019, Carl Friedrich Schaefer designed the Alpine Eagle watch series to reinterpret the St. Moritz watch.
The birth of the Alpine Eagle watch series originated from Carl Friedrich Schaefer’s love for the Alps. He believes that the mutual reflection between the strong in nature is the unity of strength and gentleness. He hopes to convey this concept through watch design.
Movement and functions
The Alpine Eagle series watch is built with Chopard 01.01C self-winding movement, which has a 60-hour power reserve and has been certified by the Swiss Official Observatory (COSC) to ensure its excellent accuracy and reliability.
Materials and Aesthetics
The aesthetic design of the Snow Mountain Pride series watch combines the images of “Alpine Eagle” and “Rock Jasmine”. The eagle symbolizes strength and freedom, while rock jasmine shows the elegance of growing tenaciously in difficult circumstances. The combination of the two makes the Snow Mountain Aoyi series watch not only a timing tool, but also a work of art, showing the dual beauty of toughness and elegance.
Market Performance and Design Heritage
Since its launch, the Snow Mountain Ao Wing series of watches has risen rapidly in the luxury sports watch market and has become a new symbol of Chopard. It inherits the design essence of St. Moritz watches and incorporates more natural elements, making each watch like a unique work of art.
In 1980, Carl Friedrich Schaefer, the current co-president of Chopard, created the St Moritz watch, the brand’s first stainless steel sports watch. The design of the St. Moritz watch was inspired by the scenery of the Alps that Carl Friedrich Schaefer saw during his ski vacation in St. Moritz, Switzerland. Its design is simple and classic, with an octagonal case and a minimalist dial. The launch of the St. Moritz watch marks Chopard’s entry into the luxury sports watch market.
Features of the new Xueshan Aoyi watch
The new Snow Mountain Aoyi watch adopts a more modern design language. Its case is made of Chopard’s exclusive metal Lucent Steel™, which is not only stronger but also has better anti-allergenic properties. The case has a diameter of 41 mm, a thickness of 10.9 mm, and a water resistance of 100 meters. The color of the dial is inspired by the rock jasmine in the Alps. They grow tenaciously in the cold climate and show their tenacious vitality. The new “rock jasmine” tone dial shows a warm and natural feeling. It uses a gradient color design, from dark green to light beige, like a sea of rocky jasmine in the Alps.

The Alpine Eagle watch is not only a timing tool, but also a combination of art and nature, demonstrating the brand’s design heritage and innovation.
