OUR COVER

COVER STORY

30 YEARS OF CHANEL TIME And the quest for pure watch pleasure

Between power and discretion, the MONSIEUR de CHANEL watch with Instant Jumping Hour and Retrograde Minute is equipped with the CALIBRE 1, the House’s first inhouse high-watchmaking movement. The choice of a double complication with a digital hour display in a watchcase of extreme sobriety seemed almost self-evident. And accordingly, Chanel expresses its unique vision of beautiful masculine watches. For its launch in 2016, 300 numbered movements were produced of which 150 are for the Monsieur in Beige gold and 150 for the white gold model. This year the Monsieur de Chanel appears in platinum with a beautiful black enamel dial.
