To commemorate its Golden Jubilee, Cortina Watch is introducing several special and limited edition timepieces with longstanding partners in watchmaking. The latest are two releases from Chopard – Happy Hearts Cortina 50th Anniversary and Happy Moon Cortina 50th Anniversary for the ladies, comprising of limited editions created together with and exclusively for Cortina Watch’s anniversary celebrations.

Cortina Watch and Chopard are family-owned businesses, have enjoyed a close-knit and successful partnership since 1992.

Produced in a limited edition of 50 pieces, the Happy Hearts Cortina 50th Anniversary timepiece is fitted with a 36 mm stainless steel case and red alligator leather straps. This watch features a white dial brought to life with six dancing elements: five diamonds and a red heart. While the diamonds depict five decades since the humble beginnings of Cortina Watch, the red heart carries a deeper meaning – as part of Cortina Watch’s continued efforts to give back to the community, net proceeds from the sale of this special edition will be donated to the Singapore Heart Foundation (SHF). The Happy Hearts Cortina 50th Anniversary timepiece also features an exhibition caseback with a special “Cortina Watch 50th Anniversary Since 1972” inscription, together with a heart-shaped symbol – the logo of the SHF.

Also presented as a limited edition, is the Happy Moon Cortina 50th Anniversary collection. Made in three variations presented with a blue aventurine, green aventurine or red mother-of-pearl dial and paired with 18-carat ethical gold. Featuring the moonphase display – a favourite complication among Cortina Watch’s discerning female clientele, this is a mechanical and poetic creation brimming with enchanting precision and craftsmanship. Only 5 pieces will be made for each dial variation. This special edition of Happy Moon also comes with an exhibition caseback stamped with “Cortina Watch 50th Anniversary Since 1972”.

Both the Happy Hearts and Happy Moon Cortina 50th Anniversary limited edition timepieces will retail exclusively at Cortina Watch boutiques.

“It has been an absolute pleasure to work with Chopard and the Scheufele family through the years. As family-owned businesses, we share many common values and it is especially meaningful for us to be able to celebrate Cortina Watch’s 50th Anniversary not only through the unveiling of exquisite timepieces, but more importantly, by sharing the joy of giving by giving back to society together with our longstanding business partner. We hope that this vibrant exhibition and our milestone collaboration with Chopard will bring about precious memories to be cherished in years to come,” says Jeremy Lim, CEO of Cortina Watch.

Sending his best wishes, Karl-Friedrich Scheufele, Chopard Co-President added, “We sincerely congratulate you all, the family and of course all the members of your staff on this important occasion because 50 years is quite something. It shows resilience, it shows your creativity, it shows everything you have built with passion over these years. And we are very happy that we have been working with you for 30 years, in fact, we went back to our records and we started in 1992. And we are very happy to commemorate this happy occasion with you with some special moments.”

“We are honoured to have Cortina Watch mark their 50th Anniversary with a limited-edition timepiece that promotes heart health. Time is especially crucial when it comes to safeguarding our hearts. Every minute of inaction in preventing a cardiac event and providing resuscitation efforts can prove costly to our lives. This support from Cortina Watch will enable the Singapore Heart Foundation to encourage active steps that will protect our hearts and those around us,” expressed Dr Low Lip Ping, Chairman Emeritus of Singapore Heart Foundation
