The new Chanel J12 Retrograde Mysterieuse Watch definitely is a unique timepiece. This time piece was introduced at this year’s Baselworld 2010 in conjunction with the team at Audemars Piguet Renaud Papi.
“The name of this watch is beginning to take on meaning: Rétrograde for the minute hand which reverses its travel for ten minutes during which, at each revolution of the dial, the hand returns to its position under the crown -i.e. between 10 and 20 past each hour, with the minute counted in figures in the magnifying aperture at the bottom of the dial -and Mystérieuse for the mysterious workings of this dual analog and digital display. It is a highly technical and very aesthetically-pleasing watch complication.” One final note on the crown: it’s verticable retractable.
