Take heart! “If you are sad, if you are heartbroken, make yourself up, dress up, add more lipstick and go on the attack (…)”: such was the sage advice given by Gabrielle Chanel in her time. Red to regain power? The Director of Chanel’s Watchmaking Creation Studio, Arnaud Chastaingt, takes this injunction literally with a new Haute Horlogerie Edition Rouge capsule collection composed of three limited editions: a J12 X-Ray and a Boy.Friend X-Ray Squelette, both dripping in sapphires, as well as a Boy.Friend Squelette. The beige gold of the case middle makes a beautiful contrast with the 38 baguette-cut rubies on the bezel, highlighting the openworked components of the Chanel Manufacture Caliber 3, which is also dressed in red. A symbol of power, seduction and passion.
