Lily-Rose Depp Shines in Chanel's Timeless Watch Campaign

Lily-Rose Depp, the 24-year-old actress known for her role as troubled pop star Jocelyn in HBO's drama series "The Idol," is set to grace Chanel's latest advertising campaign for the Première Original Edition watch, scheduled for release on September 1st.

In awe of the watch's elegance, Lily-Rose describes it as "beautiful, delicate, chic, classic," acknowledging that only Chanel could create such a masterpiece. Having become Chanel's youngest ambassador back in 2015, Lily-Rose has a deep connection with the brand, recalling her earliest memory of wearing Chanel when she was just a toddler.

Throughout the years, she has fronted multiple campaigns for the luxury fashion house, representing iconic products like the Rouge Coco Bloom and Rouge Coco Flash lipsticks, the No.5 L’Eau fragrance, the J-12 watch, and being one of the chosen faces for the launch of the Sac 22 handbag.

The Première Original Edition was initially introduced last year, commemorating the 35th anniversary of Chanel's watchmaking division. A testament to its heritage, the new version retains its timeless essence with meticulous attention to detail. According to Arnaud Chastaingt, the director of the Chanel watchmaking creation studio, the watch stays true to its original form while incorporating subtle modifications.

Originally designed in 1987 by the late Jacques Helleu, the watch draws inspiration from the stopper of Chanel's iconic No.5 fragrance. Its bracelet-like structure, a black lacquer dial with no numbers, and a gold case make it an exquisite piece that transcends being a mere watch – it is an embodiment of timeless style and sophistication, as described by Chastaingt.

With Lily-Rose Depp as the face of this iconic timepiece, Chanel's Première Original Edition watch campaign promises to captivate the hearts of watch enthusiasts and fashion connoisseurs alike, paying homage to the brand's legacy of elegance and innovation.
