PREMIÈRE ÉDITION ORIGINALE, a reissue of the 1st CHANEL watch, is worn like a piece of jewellery. Inspired by the design codes of the House, this creation with distinctive lines evokes the stopper of the N°5 fragrance bottle. The supple chain bracelet interlaced with leather echoes the chain of classic CHANEL handbags. The black-lacquer dial with golden hands and no numerals underlines the essential: a spirit of freedom and audacity unique to CHANEL.

A creation with pure lines and refined details for a timeless style. The emerald-cut bevelled crystal of the PREMIÈRE ÉDITION ORIGINALE watch rests on a black lacquer dial with no numerals. Golden hands turn on the perfectly smooth surface. The crown, set with an onyx cabochon, reflects two signature colours of the House: black and gold.
Gold for Gabrielle Chanel’s love of all that sparkles, including baroque, Byzantine and Venetian treasures. And intense black, which emphasises the essential.
Composed of a chain interlaced with leather, its extremely supple bracelet encircles the wrist and fastens with a clasp engraved with “CHANEL”.
I AM THE PREMIÈRE WATCH
In 1987, under the creative direction of Jacques Helleu, the House introduced its first watch, the PREMIÈRE. An iconic design that is reissued by the CHANEL Watch Creation Studio as the PREMIÈRE ÉDITION ORIGINALE and assembled at the House’s Manufacture in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland.
