Description

The J12 X-Ray, which was released in March, marks a bold new step for Chanel, which has long maintained a serious watchmaking initiative.

Since its unveiling in 1999, the J12 has become one of the foremost pillars of the CHANEL Watchmaking Creation Studio. Considered revolutionary for its ceramic case, the J12 has since been rendered in a variety of models, but notably has remained loyal to the Maison’s signature colours of black and white. This year, the J12 is enriched with a new movement, Calibre 5, as well as the spar- kling addition of diamonds. Enter the J12 Diamond Tourbillon watch.

Since this year’s outing at Watches and Wonders was its first after leaving Baselworld, Chanel decided that it would debut its most impressive model in its iconic J12 family of watches yet — a tourbillon on top of which a multi-faceted diamond dances elegantly, keeping time with the movement of this hypnotic complication. This stunning timepiece ticks to the beat set by the Calibre 5, an in-house manually-wound flying tourbillon movement.
