Chanel J12 Marine

 

The hottest release for Chanel in 2010 is the J12 Marine – and Watches of Switzerland is the only place to get it. As the exclusive stockist of Chanel watches nationally, Watches of Switzerland was excited to receive the first shipment of these this month.

 

IT was meant to happen, one day J12 was going to return to its natural habitat: the immensity of the sea, the force of oceans,. Inspired from birth by maritime symbols, J12 is celebrating its tenth anniversary this year by stating its true identity. J12 Marine is an authentic diving watch. With three versions and two sizes, this new J12 asserts its thoroughbred nature without conceding anything to aesthetics. Staying true to the stylistic design which has made it so successful, the J12 Marine is thus setting out to conquer new territory - the depths.
