Since its inception in 1994, the IMPERIALE collection has embodied Chopard’s vision of regal elegance and horological excellence. In 2025, this iconic collection welcomes a new chapter with the introduction of a poetic complication : the IMPERIALE Four Seasons, a timepiece that captures the eternal rhythm of nature through the artistry of watchmaking. At the heart of this creation lies a rotating disc that completes a full revolution over 365 days, evoking the gentle cycle of the seasons. Crafted in painted textured mother-of-pearl marquetry, this miniature tableau is a moving landscape, shifting subtly with time. The disc is ingeniously indexed to the hour hand — a seamless fusion of mechanical ingenuity and poetic expression. The dial is a masterpiece of craftsmanship. Its upper half is adorned with an ethical 18-carat white gold lace, sculpted into the delicate silhouette of a lotus flower — a recurring motif in the IMPERIALE collection, also echoed in the shape of the crown. Satin-finished gold petals with polished veins create a striking contrast of textures, while the lower dial reveals a painted mother-of-pearl marquetry gradient that evokes the changing hues of the natural world. The 18-carat white gold case, bezel and crown are adorned with diamonds, enhancing the timepiece’s luminous presence. The IMPERIALE Four Seasons is delivered with four interchangeable alligator leather straps, each reflecting the palette of a different season, allowing the wearer to harmonize their timepiece with the world around them. Issued in a limited edition of 25 pieces, this creation is more than a timepiece – it is a lyrical celebration of time, nature, and the enduring artistry of Chopard.
