Chanel Introduces the Coco Game Collection
The French luxury fashion house Chanel has introduced the Coco Game Collection — a thematic lineup of fourteen timepieces created by Arnaud Chastaingt, Director of the Watchmaking Creation Studio. These pieces draw visual inspiration from the world of gaming and chess. As part of the capsule, Chanel spotlights the 2026 Haute Horlogerie Masterpiece, which centres on Gabrielle Chanel as a queen figure commanding an extraordinary chessboard.
The Coco Game Collection combines ceramic craftsmanship, gem-setting expertise, and the brand's signature black and white graphic codes, with each watch assembled at the Chanel Watch Manufacture in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, and designed at Place Vendôme in Paris.
Needless to say, the attention to detail and craftsmanship in the Coco Game Collection is impeccable.
