1 &#8211; Launched in 2000, the Chanel J12 line was their first venture into sports watches &#8211; almost 100 years since the maison was founded, and 13 years since establishing their wristwatch division.
2 &#8211; It was designed by Chanel&#8217;s legendary artistic director, Jacques Helleu, taking inspirations from two of his favorite sports; automobiles and sailing.

3 &#8211; The very first design for the J12 was in all black ceramic case and bracelet, then the all-white followed in 2003. Principles of the iconic design remained until this day, fulfilling Helleu&#8217;s intention on creating something timeless.
4 &#8211; The watch line have gone through many upgrades throughout the years. Such as applying complications in 2005 with the J12 Tourbillon, and invented a new colour of ceramic for the J12 Chromatic in 2011.
5 &#8211; Celebrating its upcoming 20th anniversary next year, the house is preparing a slight makeover &#8211; led by Arnaud Chastaingt, director of the Chanel Watch Creation Studio.

6 &#8211; First part of the redesign is increasing the dial opening, by refining the bezel. Increasing its notches from 30 to 40, while also resizing the crown width by a third.
7 &#8211; Second; the typeface. Fonts for the watch&#8217;s numerals and indexes were redesigned &#8211; with the &#8220;automatic&#8221; and &#8220;Swiss made&#8221; mentions now shares the same one with the brand&#8217;s.
8 &#8211; Third; the numerals. Not only the typeface was updated, but they are now made of ceramics, just like the line&#8217;s signature material.

9 &#8211; Fourth; the hands. Honed and refined, the hours and minutes hands are now the same width with the dimensional adjustment of the luminescent areas.
10 &#8211; Fifth; the thickness of the case was slightly increased &#8211; yet, by softening and rounding its profile, the case appears no thicker than before.

11 &#8211; Finally, it runs on a new 12.1 caliber automatic movement, specially developed by the new Swiss manufacturer Kenissi Manufacture, can be seen clearly from the back case to be admired.
12 &#8211; The watch line has a glamorous string of international figures as their faces. Hong Kong singer and superstar William Chan bears that honor of being the only male face of the J12.
