Reading Time: 2 minutes
Ladies watches are a special watch category that plays by other rules as men’s watches. A special kind of game plays this watch by Chanel – a watch created for the smart girls out there that want to impress a man with their watches, to seduce him with something else than herself. It’s like the moment when she is wearing your favourite shirt,  but it’s not enough said… It’s like she shows you that she can have any of your watches, but she decides to make you jealous with her own.
And to make everything more interesting, even the name plays by his own rules: BOY.FRIEND – “Pure lines, balanced proportions, perfect shapes: the BOY∙FRIEND watch is pure simplicity. Radically elegant, it dares to assert a new look, erasing the lines between masculine and feminine style.” – Chanel Boy.friend watch Website.

From the entire collection, the one that my love and I like most is the Tweed version: “The BOY·FRIEND TWEED asserts its elegance with playful lines and understated style. The tweed inspiration of its strap blurs the boundaries between masculine and feminine. Borrowed from the masculine wardrobe and intrinsic to CHANEL fashion, this motif gives the BOY·FRIEND watch unique allure. A timepiece that exudes spirit and boldness” – Chanel

The Boyfriend Tweed is offered in three variants: two in a steel case of 21.5 x 27.9 x 6.2 mm, one with the bezel set with 62 brilliant cut diamonds of approx. 0.37 carat, and a bigger version of the steel case with 26.7 x 34.6 x 7.3 mm. The watches are covered with a sapphire crystal and have a stainless teel crown with a black spinel cabochon.
