Chanel Première Diamond, model Primiere Diamond, a 1987 quartz steel watch with a 26 mm case and steel bracelet, original papers included, in very good condition with minor cosmetic wear.
Description from the seller
Chanel Première "Diamond" in size L, a piece that represents a milestone in the history of haute couture and watchmaking. It is in fact the very first wristwatch model ever produced by the Maison Chanel, designed by the celebrated artistic director Jacques Helleu and launched on the market in October 1987. This refined variant stands out clearly from the classic time-only versions thanks to a splendid octagonal bezel entirely set with brilliant-cut diamonds, inspired by the geometry of Place Vendôme and the cap of the legendary Chanel N°5 perfume. The structure is completed by an elegant polished stainless steel link bracelet and a black lacquered dial in a minimalist and timeless style.
Condition of the item and transparency (Please read carefully): The watch is 39 years old and presents itself in generally good condition. Being an authentic vintage piece, it shows the usual and physiological signs of aging consistent with its age. Specifically, there are micro-scratches and superficial scratches on the glass and case, bracelet; these are aesthetic details tied to the passage of time that in no way preclude the beauty, integrity or functionality of the watch (please closely view the backlit photos for maximum transparency before purchase). The item is sold as-is.
The watch benefits from an impeccable and documented maintenance history that certifies its absolute authenticity:
Original clasp replaced directly at the Chanel headquarters (official high-cost intervention).
Official Chanel repair warranty card included (supplied following the intervention).
Documentation and care recorded with a fiscal receipt at the prestigious and historic luxury jewelry store Monetti in Naples.
These are the only documents that will be sent together with the watch.
