Chanel Launches First Men's Diving Watch

Chanel Launches First Men's Diving Watch

Posted 1 year, 7 months ago


Chanel released its first men’s diving timepiece with a little help from Laird Hamilton, famous American big-wave surfer and co-inventor of tow-in surfing.

This brand new model, dazzling contribution to Chanel’s J12 line, is available in the Chanel boutiques since July.

The model comes in black and white version and two sizes. Retail price for 38mm watch is $4,700 and 42mm version is sold for $4,900.

The timepiece is water resistant up to 300 meters and suitable for swimming, snorkeling and scuba diving at depths. Big Arabic numeral, time-markers and sporty arrow-shaped hands are covered with luminous filling, offering the exceptional brightness even at the ocean depths.

Hamilton started wearing Chanel watches after he received one as a gift, and he honestly admits: "I didn't know I was Chanel until somebody sent me a watch to use. Usually I can break a watch in three or four months. I climb trees. I do crazy things in the pool, I surf, of course. I paddle board. I jet ski. But this watch endured me."
