Yes Moana, well said in that each piece is ...
“Unique” since it is hand painted by the master !
“Master Minori Koizumi, an Urushi master chosen by Chopard for his extreme artistic mastery”
Did you mean the dial reminds you of “The Dream” or “Garden of Eden” ?
The Dream
The Garden of Eden
If “The Dream” then please my earlier posts. Thanks for reading about my “dream”.

Hi All, a wrist shot dedicated to Bill and Christian from the ...
Horological Japanese Urushi animals based in the concrete jungle of Hong Kong saying hello 👋! What you you like or dislike about this dial and why? Cheers, Gordon ...
Thanks kjkt3 ! In addition to being a joy to wear, this jungle creates much noise and attracts...
much attention from others !
other than a monkey sitting on top of Chopard .....I find the dial meticulously detailed - colors, gradients, sharpeness. The serrrations on the leaves are so prominent. If asked to judge...
...I wud say the artist def has a better handle on the flora than fauna. The dauphine hands, absence of secs hand, the thinness of the case all help bring focus directly onto the dial. Personally always liked the dial closer to the crystal. The depth of d...
Thanks redcoral for your thoughtful comments ! The piece in the metal is quite...
3 D actually, especially the plants in front of the lion. This dial needs to be inspected in person. Hence unfortunately my photography skills are not worthy. :-(
That is just so cool — absolutely unique and beautiful!
For me, it’s a bit reminiscent of Rousseau’s "Garden of Eden." To have it on the wrist must be endlessly fascinating!

My apologies...
Yes, I absolutely meant "The Dream." Thank you for catching that. Now that I have checked out your links, I see that I was on target! Thanks so much for providing the links to your previous threads -- the back story on your beautiful pieces is truly fasci...

I've seen the Chopard Urushi in person. It's a work of art.
This model is my favorite! It's a very nice one you got!
You can order one at the Chopard boutique I think ! Otherwise do what I did ...
in getting it in an auction ! Here is a post of my journey :
Thanks for sharing
Auction looks like a good route. Boutique already confirmed there is no more Jungle
Darn, no more Jungles at boutiques!!?? I will be ...
passing by several boutiques in Asia and will enquire about the situation.
Yes. No more.
I think it’s probably because it was released way back in 2012. Boutique told me they don’t have the dial anymore otherwise they could make one for me. Thanks for checking. Please let me know if somehow there is one. 😀
FYI I asked Chopard boutique in Singapore and the manager said she needed to...
check internally first.
Hi mj23, I checked with Hong Kong Chopard boutique and the response was that the Jungle is...
no longer produced unfortunately and orders would not be taken. :-( You need to get one from the secondary market. Hope to see your jungle wrist shot soon !
Thanks so much for checking, Gordon!!
I really appreciate it!! Now my search begins and it won’t be easy I am sure!!
With this kind of wrist art there nothing to hate only to love.
This kind of watch makes a real statement. Everything to love. Hope to seen in the flesh soon. Best Bill
Thanks Fab ! There are different types of rare...
handcrafts to be appreciated ! What if Patek produced these urushi pieces like this one ? Would Patek fans like it ?
There is nothing
i don’t like about this watch. In fact I’m in love. I think you did very well to pick the YG case. It complements the colors of the dial wonderfully. Thank you for the honor, G! What a privilege. You made my evening 😊 Warm regards from sunny Andalusia. Be...
Thanks Christian for your reply and kind comments ! I simply wanted to share more photos to ...
poison you into submission so that you will get a urushi piece for yourself ! Enjoy Andalusia!
Thanks Luis ! Your great photography skills made me fall more in...
love with my own watch !
Close up photo request
Can we see a close up photo of the dial straight on and not an angle?
