Chanel Monsieur
I'm not sure I remember reading about this reference on here. I can sort of understand the hesitantance- Chanel is not a horology brand, a jewelry one (although they do have ownership in FPJ). I just think this watch is supercool looking. Retrograde minut...
Of all their offerings, this one seems the most interesting
The dial reminds me of a car dashboard but in a cool way
It is expensive
But in line with jumping hour watches and having retrograde. Although if they wanted to drive people to be interested in their higher end watches maybe a price break would lure people.
Not sure I am up for this adventure
But there is something cool about it. At 20k maybe would leap, at 35-40k. Not for me.
Chanel might soon be playing exclusivity games to build up the hype.
Chanel knows how things are done. Make things appear scarce, and then the customers will be fooled into buying it. I hope they don't play games like that with this watch! That being said, it's actually quite nicely done. But do people buy watches because ...
Just a wee bit rich for my blood
If it was $25,000 - $30,000 it would be difficult to ignore this watch. At that price point, however, I will put my dollars elsewhere. Still, it is a beautiful watch.
If this had a haute horology brand name on it people would have about it
Looked very nice In person
Yes I think more interest if said patek
Also 2X the cost. The marble version looked neat online!
This is a very beautiful and cool watch!
Yes, we all „need to broaden our horizons“. ☺️ Just look at my OP about the Montblanc Suspended Exo Tourbillon in MB forum and the further discussion where you took part with your very interesting thoughts. I personally care less and less about from which...
I think the important of the watch line for fashion or luxury groups is very small
this is shown by Kering recent sale of UN/GP to the management. Watches, beside fashion ones, are not such a scalable business. This @ Chanel or @ Montlblanc is a side project with a few insiders that push it forward. If it becomes too much (clients unhap...
I think with the high end MB pieces you are pretty safe. They specifically acquired Minerva to do these pieces.
You don't spend that kind of capital in thinking you are not into it for the long haul and that it is simply a side project. Also, being under the Richemont umbrella gives you added security for longevity. I always thought it made sense, pen collectors te...
I know a high quality watch when I see one
The Monsieur Chanel watch has fine character and quality. I prefer the dressier versions to the Superleggera revision, but the entire watch is excellent in all versions. I went out of my way to take a look at a rose gold example in 2017 when I saw one in ...
Very impressed with Chanel regarding this piece!
The dial is very nice, and the movement is amazing!
This is a great looking watch.
As with so many watches these days I am shaking my head in disbelief when seeing the asking price....
