Inside Chopard: Karl-Fritz Scheufele on Alpine Eagle, L.U.C High Horology & Family Watchmaking

This week, Andy sits down with Karl-Fritz Scheufele, Chief of Staff – Craft, Digital & Experience at Chopard and a third-generation member of the family that manages this historic brand. 🇨🇭✨

Karl-Fritz takes us on a deep dive into Chopard's watchmaking legacy, exploring 30 years of L.U.C Chopard, often called the "brand within a brand" for its exceptional high horology. He also shares the fascinating behind-the-scenes story of his pivotal role in bringing the widely acclaimed Alpine Eagle collection to life, and opens up about what it's truly like to work for one of Switzerland's last remaining independent, family-owned luxury watchmakers. 🦅⏱️

Before diving into the main interview, Felix and Andy look back at their own experiences wearing two stunning Chopard pieces on the wrist during Watches & Wonders.
