Who makes Chanel watches?

Chanel didn’t start as a wristwatch brand. In fact, unlike other brands, Chanel’s founder was not a horological expert. This makes you wonder who makes their timepieces and if Chanel wristwatches are not just carrying the company’s logo. Well, Chanel has a watch factory located in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland and has a 20% stake in F.P. Journe. In 2018, Chanel bought a stake in Tudor’s movement manufacturer Kenissi, the company that made movements for the Chanel J12 in 2019.
