First Look: The Chopard Alpine Eagle Flying Tourbillon Now in Ice Blue

The Alpine Eagle draws inspiration from the 1980s St. Moritz series, Chopard's take on the then-trending luxury sports watch with an integrated braceleta trend that has regained momentum. The Chopard Alpine Eagle Flying Tourbillon joined the collection in 2022, following the introduction of the chronograph and high-frequency models. While there's always room to discuss influences and debate whether a tourbillon belongs in a sports watch, one thing is clear: the Alpine Eagle is making its mark, and the Flying Tourbillon fits right in.The latest 2025 Alpine Eagle Flying Tourbillon remains largely unchanged from its 2022 debut, with the only noticeable update being the dial colour. This new version features a Rh?ne Blue dial, a lighter shade than the original Aletsch Blue. The 41mm case, crafted from Lucent Steel Chopard's proprietary alloy maintains its finishes, shape, 8mm slim profile, 100m water resistance, and sapphire crystals on both the front and back.

The gold dial base is stamped to create the radiating pattern and then coloured via PVD treatment. The white gold hour markers and hour and minute hands are coated with Grade X1 Super-LumiNova for enhanced readability. The running seconds are displayed via a white gold triangle-tipped pointer attached to the tourbillon cage; the pointer is also luminescent.At the heart of the watch is the L.U.C 96-24-L, a micro-rotor movement measuring just 3.3mm thick.
