I am a J12.
I am as bold as I am refined, as unexpected as iconic.
I am sporty. I am feminine.
I am where itâs at.
My 19mm-size is deliberate.
Excessively small, yet excessively strong.
I hide where I see fit.
On a ring. In the fold of a glove. On a cuff.
I dictate the rules, my style, my allure, my time.
I decide.
Is it all a contradiction? Or an attitude?
No, it is just who I am.
One does not look at me. One admires me.
I do not tell the time, I offer it to those who dare to look.
Do I confuse you? Am I different?
Well, that is my wit and charm.
Do not take me too seriously.
I love the quirky humor of those who appreciate
my contradictions.
I am a J12. I am excessive.
I am J12.

The new Chanel J12 XS miniature version reinterprets the iconic J12. The house reveals in effect a mini version called J12 XS measuring only 19 millimeters in diameter. The sister took over the lines that contributed to the success of the J12 since its creation in 1999 by Jacques Helleu with its dial available in lacquered version, onyx and still the house colors: white and black. Sold with a thin strap in black or white calf leather, the watch can be worn alone or with an accessory: tone on tone with a cuff with silver edge, melted into a wide cuff in six strips of leather studded with diamonds or associated a large cuff.

To also enhance the wearing this watch, the J12 XS also goes with a pair of leather gloves signed Causse. This mini version of watchmaking jewel is surprising but assumed. The smallest watch of Chanel is full of contrasts: feminine, fashionable and valuable and also sporty, refined and modern, much like the woman of today...
