About Chopard Happy Sport:
The Chopard Happy Sport was created in 1993 by Caroline Scheufele, co-president of Chopard, as a deliberate challenge to the convention that diamonds must always be fixed and formal. Chopard, founded in Sonvilier, Switzerland in 1860 and now headquartered in Geneva, has been a leading independent Swiss luxury watch and jewelry house for over 160 years. The Happy Sport became an immediate icon upon its release — the first watch in history to feature freely floating diamonds inside the crystal — and it transformed Chopard from a respected watchmaker into a global luxury fashion statement. The combination of sports watch proportions, precious stone accents, and the playful animated diamond element created a watch that appealed equally to jewelry lovers and watch enthusiasts in a way no previous timepiece had managed. Collectors prize early Happy Sport pieces, particularly two-tone ruby lug variants, for their rarity, their historical significance as the original floating diamond watches, and their continued relevance as objects of desire decades after their introduction.
