The Chopard Alpine Eagle 41 SL Cadence 8HF, reference 298600-3028, is a limited-edition high-frequency version of Chopard’s integrated sports watch. The 41 mm case is 9.75 mm thick and made of ceramised titanium, a surface treatment that Chopard says raises hardness to about 1,000 Vickers. The case, bezel and screw-down crown share the dark grey finish, and water resistance is 100 metres. There is sapphire crystal on both sides. The black dial carries the Alpine Eagle iris texture with orange accents, and the display shows hours, minutes, central seconds and date. Inside is the in-house automatic calibre 01.14-C, which beats at 8 Hz (57,600 vph), uses a silicon escapement, has bridges and mainplate in ceramised titanium, offers a 60-hour power reserve and is COSC-certified as a chronometer.

Chopard presented the watch at Watches and Wonders in April 2025 as an evolution of the earlier titanium Alpine Eagle Cadence 8HF. Unlike most Alpine Eagles, this model is not sold on the integrated metal bracelet; it comes on a black rubber strap or a black calfskin strap with orange stitching, both with a ceramised titanium pin buckle. Production is limited to 250 pieces. Launch prices were EUR 26,800 in Europe and USD 28,700 in the United States, where Chopard’s website lists it at that price. Swiss retailer Junod lists it at CHF 23,700.

Time+Tide’s Russell Sheldrake named it his favourite Alpine Eagle of 2025, saying it showed Chopard at its best and that there was very little to complain about. Coverage, including Watchonista’s, highlighted Chopard’s rarely discussed expertise in high-frequency movements and the low weight of the titanium case. In November 2025 the watch won the Sports Watch Prize at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève. As a 250-piece limited edition it is no longer a regular catalogue item, and Chopard’s US site showed it as out of stock in October 2026, though some retailers may still hold pieces.
