- Known for their exquisite style in high fashion and their magnificent jewels, Chanel first stepped into the world of horology in 1987 by launching the octagonal-cased Première cocktail watch.
- J12 was first released in 1999 in ceramic, created by the Jacques Helleu and has quickly become an overnight sensation. The name was inspired by the world of yacht racing, particularly “J-class 12 meter racing yachts”. Chanel has further improved and revamps the iconic J12 with some serious changes to give the watch a refreshed look.
- The present Chanel J12 with a petite 33mm diameter black ceramic case is from circa 2011, offered with its full set of accessories and preserved in nearly unworn overall condition, this is a perfect daily watch to go with any wardrobe.
