The story behind this Emile Chouriet Challenger Cliff
The Maison Emile Chouriet draws its inspiration from the majesty of the Alpine landscapes to design timepieces combining robustness and refinement. The Challenger Cliff line, recognisable by its angular case reminiscent of rock faces, comes here in a resolutely feminine and precious version. The Emile Chouriet watch reference 01.1172.L.6.6.96.6 achieves the perfect fusion between the aesthetics of a steel sports watch and the nobility of fine jewellery. To enhance its blue sunray dial, the Geneva manufacture has chosen to set it with 8 brilliant-cut Top Wesselton diamonds, evoking the brilliance of the ice under the high-altitude sun. This approach makes it possible to offer women a genuine mechanical tool-watch, capable of accompanying them on a daily basis while retaining absolute elegance.
Case, calibre and bracelet of this Challenger Cliff
Sculpted from a block of stainless steel, the case has a diameter of 30 mm, ideally proportioned for women's wrists. Its edgy architecture protects a blue dial with sunray highlights, magnified by applied Roman numerals and 8 pure diamonds (VS quality, totalling approximately 0.064 carat). Large luminescent hands ensure optimum legibility under the sapphire crystal. Particularly rare and appreciated on ladies' models, the caseback incorporates a transparent sapphire crystal revealing the oscillations of the EC9312 self-winding mechanical calibre. This 21-jewel Swiss movement precisely orchestrates the hours, minutes, central seconds and date at 3 o'clock. A full-link stainless steel bracelet, secured by a folding clasp, completes this luxurious armour.
Why this Emile Chouriet watch
The women's "sport-chic" trend places diamond-set steel watches at the pinnacle of desirability. This Challenger Cliff model embodies this ultimate versatility: its steel design gives it the robustness needed for everyday wear, while its diamonds and sunray dial give it an undeniable status dimension. On the watch market, finding a ladies' mechanical watch with a genuine sapphire caseback and certified diamonds at an affordable price is no mean feat. Acquiring it in its strict ex-factory condition, unworn, is a pleasurable investment of rare intelligence.
