New MONSIEUR 2019
Black is the new white for Chanel this year
Black is the new white for Chanel this year
It was just three years ago here at Baselworld that Chanel wowed watch lovers with its first timepiece designed especially for men. The Monsieur de Chanel was all new from the ground up. It had its own design, a new case and movement, and a new audience. Now Chanel unveils the new Monsieur Edition Noire. It boasts an all-black matte-finished ceramic case. It also features a black dial that is accented with a steel window frame for the jump hour aperture at 6 o’clock, and silvered hands for the retrograde minutes and subsidiary seconds.

Here, nothing is superfluous. The quest for purity is evident. The matte black dial is seen protected under a "glass box", a slightly domed sapphire crystal that subtly plays with the effects of light. On the dial, the position of both complications (the jumping hour at 6 o’clock and the 240°-retrograde minutes off-centred) along with the exclusive typography chosen for the hour, all reinforce this firm choice for differentiation. The contrast between the sobriety of the dial and the movement’s very architectural design is part of the House’s uncompromising creative process.
