In 1963 in Geneva, Karl Scheufele III met with the grandson of Louis-Ulysse Chopard. The two men hit it off immediately and the latter agreed to hand over the reins of the family firm.

Chopard seized this creative freedom with both hands, crafting dials from ornamental stones in an array of bold, bright hues. L’Heure du Diamant, a future icon, was taking shape. The L’Heure du Diamant collection debuted in 2012. The V-shaped prongs of the crown setting expose more of the diamonds to the light, forming a sparkling halo around the dial.
