Yellow gold-plated Première Edition Originale watch

In 1987, something new emerged from the doors of No. 18 Place Vendôme; this was the year that CHANEL created its very first watch. The Première Edition Originale is a revival of the influential style, which draws inspiration from other icons in the Maison’s repertoire. Its octagonal shape? Reminiscent of the N°5 fragrance bottle’s cap. Its strap? Informed by the chain on the CHANEL bag, marrying 18-karat gold-plated steel with black leather.
