ICON IN THE MAKING The watch that started it all, the Première is the creation of the late Jacques Helleu, Chanel's legendary tastemaker who helped shape the House's image and creations for over 40 years while at its helm as Artistic Director. It is the original double-C timepiece and when it was unveiled in 1987, it ushered in a new era for Chanel-one that saw the brand taking charge of women's wrists as much as it already did their wardrobes. As Helleu once said of his masterpiece: "I fought to make a design that was strong, that was unique, that-more than just launching a single collection would become an eternal reference."
