Contemporary elegance echoes the grandeur of the Roman Empire with the Swiss Maison’s iconic ladies’ timepiece distinguished by its harmonious proportions and refined minutiae. In December 2014, Chopard introduced a new 36mm Imperiale model featuring a jade dial. Jade is an ornamental rock which boasts a striking green hue, and is culturally revered for its symbolic virtue and purity. The dial additionally includes gilt sword-shaped hour and minute hands, gilt Roman numerals, diamond-set hour-markers and a diamond-set central decorative ring. An 18-carat rose gold case frames the dial, and the bezel and lug-cover are set with scintillating diamonds. An emerald green alligator leather strap perfectly complements the boutique-exclusive timepiece.
