Inspired by the majesty of the great historical empires, the prestigious Swiss firm Chopard infuses an aristocratic character into every detail of the Imperiale Chronograph Ref. 8549. The design of its lugs emulates the proportions of classic Roman columns, while its openwork hands recreate royal ceremonial daggers, and its crown features carved amethysts in honor of the color of royalty. This opulent version elevates the concept of luxury by crowning its steel case with a dazzling fixed bezel set with thirty genuine brilliant-cut diamonds.

When the description of a watch states “it works,” it means the watch is functioning. Since collector’s watches typically have delicate and complex mechanisms, the buyer is responsible for any general servicing, inspection, battery replacement, adjustment, or repair that may be necessary. We do not guarantee the perfect functioning of any watch. All photographs of our watches are original and have been taken by our photographers; in other words, we do not use stock photography, which is why the photographs are considered part of the listing.
