PASTELS

Chopard Happy Sport

Limited to just 25 pieces, the Chopard Happy Sport (Ref. 275378-5010) features a lilac-hued lepidolite stone dial with dancing diamonds sparkling inside a 33 mm 18-karat rose gold case, following the golden ratio for harmonious proportions. A diamond-set bezel, gilded Roman numerals, and sword-shaped hands enhance the watch, while an amethyst-set crown and lilac alligator strap complete the look. Inside beats the in-house 09.01-C self-winding movement offering a 42-hour power reserve visible through the sapphire case back.

Price: ₹29,90,000 (approx.)

Arnold & Son HM Steel Amber

A 38-piece limited-edition timepiece, Ref. 1LCDS.Z01A.C287S's standout feature is the dial, crafted from natural Baltic amber—a fossilised resin—each with its own distinct pattern and pale-yellow hue that subtly shifts with light and air. Blued steel hour and minute hands provide elegant contrast against the translucent dial. The watch is housed in a 39.5 mm polished stainless-steel case, and runs on the manual A&S1001 calibre, offering a 90-hour power reserve. It comes on an imperial green alligator leather strap with a vibrant papaya-yellow lining.
