For 20 years, Chanel’s ceramic J12 watch has endured as the maison’s flagship timepiece, proving that elegant style can be as simple as black and white — take your pick.

But the new J12 Paradoxe watch may have you asking: Why not both? As with most paradoxes, there’s more here than meets the eye. The enigmatic 38-mm bicolor case is made by seamlessly fusing two separate cases and fitting them with a single dial and bezel.

The timepiece not only looks edgy, it has cutting-edge watchmaking cred with its high-precision automatic movement with a 70-hour power reserve. Turns out, you really can have it all.
