CHANEL, with its latest and exotic collections, is a major stopover for watches, jewellery and perfume lovers and collectors at the Doha Jewellery and Watches Exhibition 2022 taking place at the Doha Exhibition and Convention Centre. Located at the Fifty One East Pavilion, CHANEL displays some of its latest collections such as the new J12 Caliber 33mm, J12 Diamond Tourbillon Calibre 5, J12 Caliber 12.2 33mm, Mademoiselle J12 La Pausa among others. In addition, the CHANEL booth also boasts of some of the iconic collections of the brand. There are also a wide variety of elegant jewellery collections at the booth. In 2022, CHANEL marks a new milestone in the history of the J12 watch, presenting the first J12 33mm equipped with a self-winding caliber, a true technical tour de force and an encapsulation of the House’s watchmaking savoir-faire. Designed in Paris by Arnaud Chastaingt, director of the CHANEL Watchmaking Creation Studio, then developed and assembled at the CHANEL Manufacture at La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, the J12 33mm is equipped with an unprecedented self-winding movement: the Caliber 12.2. Produced by the Swiss Manufacture Kenissi, the Caliber 12.2 is a miniaturised motorisation in which each component has been adjusted to ensure a unique performance. Visible through the sapphire crystal caseback, the Caliber 12.2 is decorated and endowed with an oscillating mass in the form of a perfect circle, the signature of CHANEL Watchmaking. It is chronometer-certified by the COSC, the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute, and has a power reserve of 50 hours. The J12 33mm Caliber 12.2 is available in black or white highly resistant ceramic. CHANEL also presents the new J12 Diamond Tourbillon Caliber 5, a technical prowess and aesthetic achievement and an expression of CHANEL’s watchmaking savoir-faire. The Caliber 5 is the first Flying Tourbillon movement made in-house. Equally beautiful from both front and back, the exposed mechanism with its sophisticated finish is adorned with a lion’s head, the signature of CHANEL Haute Horlogerie Manufacture movements. The J12 Tourbillon Diamond is available in matte black ceramic and steel or in glossy black ceramic and 18-carat white gold, each limited to 55 pieces. Mademoiselle Chanel and the J12 watch has met again this year in three exceptional creations, each limited to 55 pieces. Mademoiselle J12 La Pausa welcomes the silhouette of Mademoiselle dressed in a Breton top and sailor pants, inspired by a photograph taken in her garden at La Pausa. For the first time, the Mademoiselle J12 is equipped with the Caliber 12.1, in an exclusive all-black version. Mademoiselle J12 XS clings mischievously to the watch case and Mademoiselle Chanel’s silhouette appears in the form of a figurine entwined in white gold and black lacquer, topped off with a two-tone straw hat accentuated with a brilliant-cut diamond. J12 Gabrielle Caliber 3.1 watch pays homage to the iconic silhouette of Gabrielle Chanel placed on the dial, dressed in black and wearing her beloved pearls. A true keeper of time, Mademoiselle Chanel strikes a pose in a painting within a precious frame composed of a white gold bezel set with baguette-cut diamonds.
