It all begins with human hands \u2013 the expert, patient and inventive hands of the artisans of Chopard who take turns in delicately fashioning these exceptional pieces. The flowing interaction and complementary nature of different talents is facilitated by the physical integration of over 30 crafts under one roof \u2013 a privilege that the Scheufele family cultivates with all due care through focusing on handing down know-how from generation to generation and on training. Chopard is keenly aware that the most precious of all corporate assets is human expertise.\tFrom draughtsman to watchmaker, jeweller, gemsetter and polisher, the full range of specialists unite their skills in giving shape to the most daring dreams. Haute Joaillerie watches vividly embody technical virtuosity dedicated to serving eminently contemporary artistry as well as traditional watchmaking techniques. Time is an essential factor in making an Haute Joaillerie watch since each of them demands several hundred hours of work. Depending on its shape, it may house a mechanical or quartz movement. Crafted in 18-carat rose gold, it is meticulously set with a refined combination of navette-, baguette- or brilliant-cut diamonds that exalt the beauty of its lines and proportions.\t\xa0
