From suit to wrist<\/h2>\n\n
Gabrielle Chanel used braid trim on her suits to define the contours, edge the pockets and structure the silhouette. The Chanel Premi\u00e8re Galon translates that idea into precious metal. Its bracelet is a rigid bangle made of a twisted braid, reading as jewellery as much as a timepiece. The Premi\u00e8re itself dates to 1987, and the Galon takes that spirit of creative freedom and gives it a literal twist for a fresher take on elegance.<\/p>\n\n
This year, Chanel\u2019s braid-inspired watch arrives in white gold, with diamond counts ranging from 53 to 682.<\/h2>\n

Although the braid trim has long been part of the Chanel wardrobe, on the Premi\u00e8re Galon watch, it becomes a bracelet. The design debuted in yellow gold in 2025, and white gold follows this year, with the added sparkle of diamonds. As a result, the collection now reveals a brighter side of sophistication.<\/p>\n\n
This year, four new versions are introduced. If you want the fullest setting, look to the Premi\u00e8re Galon Diamonds. It has 681 hand-set diamonds from dial to bracelet, with a single stone on the crown. The braid is set with 573 of those stones, and the dial holds 108. In total, that comes to 682 diamonds, or roughly 5.43 carats on a size M. The figure may vary by size, however. It is also a permanent piece, so it is not a limited run.<\/p>\n\n
The other three versions are more graphic. Each has a black-lacquered dial, framed by a bezel set with 52 diamonds. The bracelet is where they differ. The plain white gold braid brings the total to 53 diamonds. Add 80 diamonds to the bracelet, and the count rises to 133. The limited edition adds black lacquer to the braid and an onyx cabochon on the crown. It has 132 diamonds overall. In addition, its caseback carries a \u201cLimited Edition\u201d mention.<\/p>\n
All four measure 19.7 by 15.2 mm and are 7.5 mm thick. Sizes run from XS to L. Meanwhile, a high-precision quartz movement powers the hours and minutes. Water resistance is 30 metres.<\/p>\n\n
Whether you prefer full diamonds or a plain braid, the idea stays the same. It is a suit detail, the mark of a storied heritage, now made wearable on the wrist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
