Chanel’s Watch Face, Tiffany’s Beyoncé Tribute, Turlington Fronts CH

TICKING ALONG: Lily-Rose Depp will likely be fronting a latest promoting campaign for Chanel’s Première Original Edition watch, slated for release Sept. 1.

The 24-year-old, who appears as troubled pop star Jocelyn within the HBO drama series “The Idol,” described the watch as “beautiful, delicate, chic, classic” and a design “only Chanel could make.”

Depp became the youngest ambassador for the Rue Cambon house in 2015 but once told WWD her first memory of wearing Chanel was “probably when [she] was still in diapers.”

She’s since fronted numerous campaigns for the posh house, becoming the face of its Rouge Coco Bloom and Rouge Coco Flash lipsticks, the No.5 L’Eau scent and the J-12 watch, in addition to one among the 4 chosen to represent its Sac 22 handbag for its launch.

The Première Original Edition was launched last yr to mark the thirty fifth anniversary of its namesake, considered the place to begin for Chanel’s watchmaking division, with a rework of “minute details” to maintain the new edition “true to itself,” in response to Arnaud Chastaingt, director of the Chanel watchmaking creation studio.

Launched in 1987, the unique design was the work of the late Jacques Helleu, who intended it to be strong, unique and “an everlasting reference,” he would later say, in response to Thames & Hudson’s volume on Chanel’s watchmaking.

Modeled after the stopper of the brand’s bestselling No.5 fragrance and given a bracelet-like form factor, with hands floating on a black lacquer dial featuring no numbers and set in a gold case, the design was “excess of a watch…a lesson in style,” Chastaingt said. — LILY TEMPLETON
