Diamonds International of Republic Street, Valletta and Portomaso have been appointed the exclusive representatives for Chanel watches in the Maltese Islands.

The Chanel watch collection developed in the new Chanel 8,000 square metre workshops in the watchmaking cradle of La Chaux-de Fonds in Switzerland includes the J12 Collection – one of today’s watchmaking icons created by Jacques Helleu. This creative spark is transformed into innovative products using modern tools at every stage.

Helleu’s said, “Primarily, I created the J12 for myself. I wanted a timeless watch, in glossy black, indestructible.”

Diamonds International director, Karl Micallef said that they were delighted with this appointment. “This can be compared to being granted a certificate of professional efficiency. We are really honoured to add yet another exclusive international name to the brands we already represent,” he said.

The Chanel watch collection may now be viewed at the Diamonds International Boutique in Portomaso.
