CHANEL Première Ruban Yellow Gold & Titanium quartz 19,7 x 15,2 mm Full Set 2025

A brief history

The CHANEL Première watch embodies one of the purest expressions of elegance according to the House of CHANEL. Launched in the late 1980s, the Première marked CHANEL’s entry into the world of women’s watchmaking with a radically different approach: a watch conceived first and foremost as a style object, freed from traditional watchmaking codes.

Its design draws directly on two iconic symbols of the House. The octagonal shape of the case echoes the stopper of the N°5 perfume bottle, while the lacquered black dial pays tribute to Gabrielle Chanel’s signature colour. Devoid of indexes and any superfluous indications, the Première claims a free, elegant and intuitive reading of time, faithful to CHANEL’s vision of fashion.

With the Première Ruban version, the House pushes this jewellery-inspired approach even further. The model retains the collection’s minimalist DNA while adding a contemporary dimension, blending precious materials with aesthetic innovation. The Première Ruban thus continues CHANEL’s heritage, positioned at the crossroads of fine women’s watchmaking and statement jewellery.

Timeless, instantly recognisable and deeply connected to the world of couture, the CHANEL Première Ruban is today regarded as an iconic piece, a symbol of discreet luxury and elegance beyond trends.

The model

The CHANEL Première Ruban, reference H6125, perfectly illustrates the House’s watchmaking vision: a watch designed as a piece of jewellery, where design is as important as precision. Its octagonal case, with its refined and compact dimensions, naturally embraces the wrist and offers a subtle yet assertive presence.

The case is crafted in yellow gold 750/1000, combined with titanium to ensure lightness and wearing comfort. The quality of the finishing highlights the purity of the lines and the geometric rigour characteristic of the Première collection. The crown, also in yellow gold, is set with an onyx cabochon—an emblematic CHANEL signature—adding an immediately recognisable precious touch.

The lacquered black dial, deliberately pared back, stands out through the absence of indexes and minute track. Only the gold-toned hands indicate the passage of time, reinforcing the watch’s minimalist and elegant aesthetic. This deliberate sobriety gives the Première Ruban a timeless, almost graphic dimension.

The watch is fitted with a black rubber strap with a velvet-like effect, a material that is both contemporary and comfortable, contrasting with the nobility of yellow gold. This bold choice illustrates CHANEL’s talent for combining unexpected materials in perfect harmony. The strap is secured by a yellow gold pin buckle, ensuring aesthetic consistency.

Powered by a high-precision quartz movement, the Première Ruban offers absolute reliability and great ease of use on a daily basis. Water-resistant to 30 metres, it is perfectly suited to everyday wear, while fully retaining its vocation as an elegant, refined jewellery watch.

At the intersection of watchmaking and jewellery, the CHANEL Première Ruban ref. H6125 is intended for those seeking an iconic, elegant and resolutely timeless timepiece, faithful to the spirit of rue Cambon.
