CHANEL releases the Electro Capsule Collection

On the occasion of the Watches & Wonders trade fair, CHANEL presents its “CHANEL ELECTRO” capsule collection, whose graphic codes are borrowed from Electro culture.  In the 90s, this musical movement imposed a radical, eccentric universe, a reflection of the night world and the atmosphere in which it developed.  Inspired by the energy of electronic music, CHANEL reinvents the icon of 21st-century watchmaking in 4 versions: black ceramic, white ceramic, a design completely set with diamonds and another lined with a gradient of sapphire gemstones.

Equipped with Caliber 3.1, the J12 X-RAY is a limited edition watch with only 12 pieces available.  The sapphire dial set with 12 baguette-cut rainbow sapphire indexes, measured at 0.48 carat.  The limited edition watch features an 18K white gold bezel with 46 baguette-cut rainbow sapphires.
