Chopard Watches 2026 opened with a broad new lineup that ranges from sports models to dress watches, mechanical complications and jewelry pieces, the company said at Watches & Wonders 2026. The releases show clearer differentiation between collections while keeping a consistent level of craftsmanship across the range.
Chopard Watches 2026: highlights and new directions
Chopard presented updates that extend technical work from its L.U.C in house movements into both everyday and high complication pieces. The brand emphasized thin case engineering, dual certifications and refined finishing as recurring themes across the introductions.
Alpine Eagle 41 XPS
The Alpine Eagle 41 XPS draws attention with an 8 millimeter ultra thin profile in a 41 millimeter Lucent Steel case and an integrated bracelet that follows the wrist contours. Achieving that thinness in a sports watch is uncommon, and the model also carries both COSC chronometer certification and the Geneva seal for finishing and movement quality.
The movement is the L.U.C 96.40 L with a thickness of 3.3 millimeters, two mainspring barrels for approximately 65 hours of power reserve, and a 22 karat gold micro rotor for automatic winding. A swan neck regulator is used to refine the rate, and the dial finished in a “Mountain Glow” champagne tone features a small seconds subdial at six o’clock for balanced proportions.
The bracelet includes a 2.5 to 5 millimeter micro adjustment system that improves everyday comfort more than headline case numbers suggest. Chopard said the Alpine Eagle family will continue to be a pillar of its sport lineup in 2026.
L.U.C 1860 Chronometer
The L.U.C 1860 returns in a restrained 36.5 millimeter proportion with no date window to preserve a pure dial layout. The Areuse Blue dial is manufactured in 18 karat white gold and then hand guilloched on a traditional engine turning lathe, creating deeper textures than machine finishing alone.
This model also uses the L.U.C 96.40 L movement, offering about 65 hours of power reserve and dual certification for timekeeping and finishing. Rather than marking the case with commemorative engraving or a limited edition number, Chopard focused on finishing quality and overall completeness.
L.U.C Strike One Titanium
The Strike One Titanium reduces a chiming complication to an hourly strike function, turning complexity into a focused user experience. Chopard uses a sapphire sound spring to transmit the strike with clarity and a different timbre than traditional metal chiming springs, and the titanium case keeps weight low for daily wear.
L.U.C Time Traveler One
The Time Traveler One centers on world time functionality, combining a city ring with a 24 hour display so multiple time zones can be read at a glance. The key design challenge was information hierarchy, and Chopard aimed to keep time reading direct even when the dial carries more data.
Happy Hearts
Happy Hearts arrives in a 33 millimeter Lucent Steel case with a mother of pearl dial, two heart shaped motifs and three moving diamonds that shift with movement. Gradient pink and purple hearts add layered symbolism against the white mother of pearl, and the automatic 09.01 C movement provides a 42 hour power reserve.
The model is offered with a denim style strap that makes the watch feel more casual and suitable for everyday wear. Where other pieces at Chopard aim for extreme thinness or high grade finishing, Happy Hearts emphasizes wearable jewelry watch styling.
L’Heure du Diamant
The L’Heure du Diamant collection focuses on jewelry craft, here in a 30.5 millimeter 18 karat white gold case set with 4.40 carats of diamonds. A black banded onyx dial increases the contrast and the diamond set hands reflect light as they move, turning the passage of time into a visual effect.
Under the dial sits the 09.01 C automatic movement made from 148 parts and offering a 42 hour power reserve. Chopard presented the piece as an example of its work at the intersection of gem setting and movement finishing.
Across the show Chopard used the Alpine Eagle thin case work and the L.U.C technical platform to advance multiple directions at once, from a lightweight titanium repeater experience to diamond set high jewelry watches. Chopard Watches 2026 therefore reads as a coordinated push across sports, dress, complication and jewelry categories.
