As Céline Dion returned to the stage in Paris, Col&McArthur unveiled the Céline Dion Tribute Collection, a pair of timepieces conceived around resilience, memory and the enduring connection between an artist and the people who have accompanied her throughout her journey.
Officially licensed and created in tribute to Céline Dion’s return to the Paris stage, the collection marks a singular moment in time, while reflecting Col&McArthur’s exclusive watchmaking presence throughout her 2026–2027 residency.
For the Belgian watchmaking brand, the collection reflects a philosophy that has guided its creations from the beginning: the story always comes before the object. Rather than creating watches simply to mark the passing of time, Col&McArthur seeks to preserve the moments that give time its meaning.
"Céline Dion has never simply been a voice," reflects Sébastien Colen, Founder of Col&McArthur. "For millions, her music is tied to memories and emotions they carry for life. At Col&McArthur, we believe a watch can do the same: preserve a story and turn it into something you can keep close to you."
The collection translates that story through a series of carefully chosen details, each signifying moments that have shaped her journey.
At the heart of both timepieces is an iridescent mother-of-pearl dial whose lines and texture become a subtle reference to the nickname that has accompanied Céline Dion since the beginning of her career: “La Perle du Québec,” the Pearl of Quebec.
The architecture of the dial also evokes the flowing lines of a bridal veil, rising towards 12 o’clock in a discreet tribute to her late husband, who was a defining role in her life and career.
At the center of the dial, brilliant-cut stones trace the silhouette of the Eiffel Tower, recalling Céline Dion’s performance during the Opening Ceremony of the Paris Summer Olympic Games. The motif becomes a symbol not simply of place, but of return itself, capturing a moment that resonated far beyond Paris.
Céline Dion’s signature appears at 6 o’clock and is also engraved on the case back, creating an intimate and immediately recognizable connection to the artist whose story inspired the collection.
On the Automatic edition, twelve brown brilliant-cut stones mark the hours in a subtle reference to the color of Céline’s eyes, complemented by seventy-two white stones that bring contrast, light and depth to the composition.
Taken together, these details give the collection a deeper resonance, weaving personal references and defining moments into a timepiece conceived to preserve and carry forward her story.
The result, a collection designed not simply as a tribute to a career, but as an object through which a meaningful moment can be remembered.
Two expressions, the same story
The collection expresses this homage through two distinct timepieces, each offering a different interpretation of the same story
● The Prestige: A true collector’s gem, this edition is a marriage of Swiss precision and high-jewelry aesthetics. Plated in 18-carat white gold and featuring an exhibition back that reveals the rhythmic dance of its inner life, it is limited to 2026 numbered pieces, a permanent tribute to the year of this historic return.
(Available for €2,399 / $2,899)
● The Tribute: An elegant companion for every day, housed in a warm rose gold-plated silhouette. It carries the soul of the collection in a refined, slender form, available exclusively during this collaborative chapter.
(Available for €599 / $899)
A launch shaped around the return
The collection was revealed globally on September 12, 2026, when the shared priority registration list for both pieces opened.
From the reveal through the official launch, Col&McArthur will explore different facets of the story behind the collection, from its symbolism and craftsmanship to the significance of Paris and the relationship between Céline Dion and her audience.
Both watches will officially go on sale on October 3, 2026, a date with particular meaning in Céline Dion’s relationship with her fans.
October 3 marks the anniversary of the release of her 2005 single “Je ne vous oublie pas”.
More than twenty years later, the date creates a natural connection between Celine’s return to Paris, the fans who have remained part of her story, and a collection conceived around memory and the moments we choose to keep close.
The first deliveries of both models will follow in December 2026.
