CHANEL J12 Superleggera Automatic Watch with Black Dial and Black Ceramic Strap, 42 mm

The J12 spirit in a sport-driven interpretation

Inspired by the legendary J-Class racing yachts, the J12 is reimagined here in a more technical, almost instrumental version. The House of CHANEL introduces the J12 Superleggera, a timepiece designed for movement, where every detail reflects performance and precision.

While preserving the essential codes of the collection, this model embraces a more assertive aesthetic: bold contrasts, dynamic lines, and matte finishes. A sportier vision of the J12, without ever losing its elegance.

An architecture built for performance

The 42 mm matte black ceramic case delivers a strong, contemporary presence. Paired with a unidirectional rotating steel bezel with black coating, it reinforces the functional nature of the watch while ensuring secure time tracking.

Water-resistant to 200 meters and equipped with a screw-down crown, this model fully embraces its sporty character. The sapphire case back reveals the movement, adding a refined technical dimension.

A structured and dynamic dial

The black dial plays with textures, featuring a circular satin finish at the center and an azuré outer ring. The rhodium-plated applied indexes, individually set by hand, structure the display with precision, while the luminescent hands ensure optimal readability.

Subtle red accents bring rhythm and energy to the composition, enhancing the sporty character of this carefully balanced design.

A high-performance manufacture movement

At the heart of this J12 Superleggera beats the Caliber 12.1, an automatic movement developed by the Swiss manufacture Kenissi, co-owned by CHANEL. COSC-certified, it offers a power reserve of approximately 70 hours, ensuring reliability and precision in everyday use.

The matte black ceramic bracelet, structured with contrasting finishes, extends this technical aesthetic. Both durable and comfortable, it is completed by a triple-folding steel clasp, designed for secure and effortless wear.
