Q: What makes the Chanel Première design iconic?
A: Première was Chanel’s first women’s watch, launched in 1987. Its octagonal case echoes the outline of Paris’s Place Vendôme and the stopper of the N°5 bottle, paired with a black dial and a chain bracelet interlaced with leather for a jewellery‑like look.

Q: What are the key features of this specific watch?
A: This vintage example has a gold‑plated octagonal case, a black dial, and an onyx cabochon crown with a chain‑and‑leather bracelet. The case measures approximately 20 mm and the bracelet is currently sized to fit a wrist up to 14 cm. Condition is very good with surface scratches consistent with age and wear.

Q: What movement does it use and how often will the battery need replacing?
A: Première models of this type typically use a high‑precision quartz movement. Battery life generally ranges from around 2 to 7 years depending on use. If the watch stops, replace the battery promptly (ideally within a few months) to prevent leakage and protect the movement.

Q: Is this watch water resistant—can I wear it in the shower or while swimming?
A: Many Première models are rated to 30 m in modern specifications, but vintage pieces should be treated as non‑waterproof for everyday use. Avoid showering, swimming, or exposing the watch to hot water, steam, or soaps. Occasional, light splashes may be tolerated, but moisture should be wiped off immediately and seals checked during service.

Q: What does the “M” mean for this watch—will it fit me?
A: On vintage Première chain‑and‑leather bracelets, S/M/L usually refers to the original bracelet length rather than the case. This piece is currently set to fit a wrist up to 14 cm or smaller. If your wrist is smaller, a professional can usually remove links for a neater fit; lengthening requires sourcing matching vintage links, which are not included with this item.

Q: Can the chain‑and‑leather bracelet be adjusted or replaced?
A: Shortening is typically possible by removing chain sections, and should be done by a qualified watchmaker familiar with interlaced leather bracelets. Lengthening requires compatible links and leather to match the original. The interwoven leather ribbon can often be replaced by a professional when worn.

Q: How should I care for the gold‑plated case and bracelet?
A: Wipe the watch with a soft, dry, non‑abrasive cloth after wear. Avoid polishing compounds, cape‑cod style cloths, or abrasive cleaners on gold‑plated surfaces to prevent thinning the plating. Keep it away from perfumes, lotions, and chemicals, and store it separately from other jewellery to minimise scratches.

Q: What servicing does a vintage quartz Première need?
A: Replace the battery when required and have seals and gaskets checked during service. Regular maintenance helps preserve accuracy and protect against moisture ingress. Always use an experienced watchmaker or an authorised Chanel service for sizing, battery replacement, and care.

Q: What is included with this item and how is it authenticated?
A: This listing comes without accessories (watch only). Every piece at A Retro Tale undergoes multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, and we stand by the authenticity of all items we sell.
