Tiny Treasures: Chanel is going extra small with its J12.XS watches
This new Chanel creation may be small, but it’s a bold and versatile timepiece that will surprise you with every passing second.
J12 is a name you should all be familiar with. As prominent as the 2.55 in a Chanel boutique, or the N°5 in the brand’s perfume collection, the J12 has become a steadfast icon in the world of watches. Created with elements important to Jacques Helleu, this watch has grown and developed to become a timeless and indestructible classic for the sophisticated and modern woman.
The latest iteration for the J12 sees a 19mm dial peeking out from fashion pieces of every kind – displayed on a bold, calfskin cuff, attached to the wrist of a sleek, lambskin glove, or hiding on the face of an unassuming ring. It is the J12.XS. It is a world of contradictions, as you slowly come to realise that it is both bold and refined, sporty and feminine, timeless and trendy. Simply put, it is XSsively small, and XSsively unexpected – the perfect surprise to your every day.
J12.XS will be available in the Chanel Fine Jewellery Boutique (391 Orchard Road, #01-04 Ngee Ann City) from September 2016. Retail prices for this collection range from SGD7,550 to SGD12,000.
