CHOPARD’S $25 MILLION DIAMOND IN THE ROUGH

The title of the most expensive watch in the world has once again changed hands. Chopard has taken jewelry watches to the next level with its 201-carat watch featuring 874 (yes, you read that right) diamonds of every imaginable color, shape and size clustered around a yellow face that evokes petals enfolding the ovule of a flower.

This absolutely exquisite timepiece mirrors a flower in function as well as form as the Chopard horologists have equipped this piece with a mechanism that allows the diamonds that enclose the face to flip open like petals unfolding to embrace the day.
