Chopard Happy Sport 30mm: The Golden Ratio of Two-Tone Luxury
The Chopard Happy Sport 278573-6013 is a celebration of feminine independence and artistic watchmaking. Housed in a 30mm case crafted from Lucent Steel™ and 18-carat ethical rose gold, this timepiece represents the perfect balance of materials. Featuring five dancing diamonds that glide across a silver guilloché dial, it is an iconic design that transitions effortlessly from day to night.
Visual Audit: A Symphony of Silver and Rose Gold
The dial architecture of the 278573-6013 is designed to maximize light-play. My visual audit confirms a meticulously layered design that serves as a stage for kinetic brilliance.
- Five Floating Diamonds: Five brilliant-cut diamonds (0.14 ct) dance freely between two sapphire crystals, reacting to every movement of the wrist.
- Silver Sunburst Guilloché: The central dial features a traditional spiral sunburst engraving, surrounded by applied rose gold Roman numerals and index markers.
- Signature Sapphire Cabochon: The rose gold crown is set with a 0.09 ct blue sapphire cabochon, a signature mark of Chopard’s luxury watches.
Material Verification: Lucent Steel™ & Ethical Gold
Chopard leads the industry in sustainable luxury, utilizing high-performance, responsibly sourced materials for the 278573-6013.
- Lucent Steel™: A proprietary recycled steel alloy that is harder and whiter than standard stainless steel, providing a superior mirror-like finish.
- Ethical 18k Rose Gold: Used for the bezel and crown, this gold is sourced through transparent, artisanal mining partnerships.
- Black Alligator Strap: A hand-stitched glossy black alligator leather strap provides a classical, high-contrast finish, secured by a polished steel pin buckle.
Mechanical Functionality: The In-House 09.01-C Calibre
Moving beyond quartz, this 30mm model features a fully mechanical self-winding movement developed specifically for Chopard’s feminine collections.
- Manufacture Movement: The Chopard 09.01-C calibre consists of 148 parts and 27 jewels, entirely visible through the exhibition case-back.
- 42-Hour Power Reserve: Reliable autonomous timing with a frequency of 25,200 vibrations per hour (3.5 Hz).
