Chanel’s £18,000 wraparound watch



Cartier’s chief executive officer Bernard Fornas has been banging on about the ‘feel-guilty factor’ to explain why customers are buying smaller watches to replace the huge stonkers (hello Michael Kors) of last year. I don’t really need an excuse to buy another watch, but if I was to buy a small-faced timepiece and had a few grand going spare, it would have to be Chanel’s H2146 Premiere wraparound in 18K (and £18K!) white gold with diamonds. Chic non?
