Frederic Chopin Institute

Chopin's life and achievements are a treasure for European and world culture, which is why they should be carefully and uniquely managed. Poland’s Parliament established the Frederic Chopin Institute in 2001. It is the largest organization working to protect and promote Frederic Chopin’s heritage worldwide, and the only institution authorized to grant licenses for the use of the composer’s image. The Institute has held the International Chopin Piano Competition since 2010, hosting some of the world’s best in classical music, including Fu Ts'ong, Yundi Li and Yulianna Avdeeva.

A strict limit on production

A Limit On Production

Obtaining a license from the Frederic Chopin Institute for creating a watch named after the famous composer is both a source of pride and an immense responsibility. The Institute not only strives to promote Chopin’s image, but also fiercely protects it. For this reason, the annual production of Chopin brand watches is limited to 56 pieces. Each piece is a product of the highest quality of workmanship, characterized by rigorous attention to detail, and representing a beautiful commemoration of the composer's incredible achievements.
