With a summer full of sport and just in time for Paris’ 2024 Olympics, we are awarding Chanel a gold medal for its release of the perfectly topical and timely high jewellery watch and bracelet, the Haute Joaillerie Sport watch. While paying homage to the French Maisons quilted motif, this blinged-out wrist candy features a teasing performance-fabric mesh design with striking red and black lacquer decorative colouring alongside its 18-carat white gold hardware.

Chanel’s new 80-piece high jewellery collection comes courtesy of Patrice Leguereau, director of the Chanel Jewellery Creation Studio, and is filled to the brim with pieces perfectly infusing hallmarks of the French maison and symbols of various sporting attire and equipment. In line with the brand’s innovative techniques, the Haute Joaillerie Sport can uniquely be worn to the front, as is the norm, or slid around the wrist and ‘hidden’ at the back. Not to mention, its usually stealthy clasp is now featured as a decorative diamond detail to be shown off.
