The Chopard Happy Hearts watch
Not that one needs an occasion to give a watch to oneself or a significant other, but Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse. The Chopard Happy Hearts watch symbolises the synchronicity between the ticking of time and a beating heart. The dial is animated by three “dancing” diamonds and red and diamond-set 18kt white-gold hearts. A date window features between 4 and 5 o’clock on this 36mm stainless-steel piece on a red alligator-leather strap.
