Chanel J12 Bleu Diamond Tourbillon

Chanel J12 Bleu Diamond Tourbillon – A Masterpiece of Sapphire & Ceramic

During the 2025 Watches & Wonders Geneva exhibition, Chanel unveiled the striking
Chanel J12 Bleu Diamond Tourbillon—a high-complication timepiece that combines a luminous baguette-cut sapphire bezel with an ultra-modern matte ceramic case. This exceptional creation elevates the J12 Bleu collection with a refined display of craftsmanship, precision, and high jewelry aesthetics.

High-Tech Ceramic Case with Sapphire Brilliance

The 38 mm case is crafted from matte blue high-tech ceramic, paired with a
black-coated stainless-steel bezel and crown. The bezel is meticulously set with
34 custom-cut baguette blue sapphires, while the crown carries a single
brilliant-cut diamond for added radiance.

Openworked Dial and Flying Tourbillon

The off-centered openworked dial showcases the elegant movement of the winding system.
At 12 o’clock sits the time display with a vintage-styled railway minute track, while the
flying tourbillon at 6 o’clock forms a graceful inverted figure-eight display—a universal symbol of infinity.

At the heart of the tourbillon cage, a brilliant-cut diamond sparkles with every rotation, transforming timekeeping into a mesmerizing visual performance.

Caliber 5 – Chanel’s Hand-Wound Floating Tourbillon

Inside the watch beats the Caliber 5 hand-wound floating tourbillon movement, developed entirely in-house by the Chanel Manufacture over three years. Measuring only
6.25 mm thick, the movement is equipped with a
variable inertia balance wheel and an advanced
shock-absorption system to ensure both stability and precision.

It delivers a reliable power reserve of approximately 42 hours, making it both technically impressive and refined.

Limited Edition & Bracelet Design

Completing the piece is a matte blue high-tech ceramic bracelet with a
black-coated stainless-steel folding clasp. The Chanel J12 Bleu Diamond Tourbillon is
produced in a limited edition of only 55 pieces, making it one of the most exclusive Chanel Haute Horlogerie creations.
