The Matelassé watch collection, introduced in the early 1990s, represents Chanel's most direct translation of the Maison's signature quilted leather aesthetic — the same diamond-pattern quilting that made the 2.55 bag an icon — into a fine watch design, with the quilted motif appearing simultaneously on the dial surface, the wide leather strap, and the design language of the entire piece. The result is a watch that is unmistakably and exclusively Chanel in a way that no other luxury watch brand has achieved — a piece that communicates its identity through pattern and texture rather than brand logos, appealing to collectors who value design intelligence over conspicuous branding. Reference H0109 from 1993 is among the earliest and most collectible Matelassé references, produced during the collection's inaugural years when the quilted dial treatment was at its most dramatic and the wide leather strap was at its most architectural. Chanel watches from this period have appreciated consistently in the secondary market as the Maison's watch heritage becomes more widely recognized by collectors.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesign and Construction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThe 19mm square case combines an 18K yellow gold bezel and case body with a stainless steel back, creating the warm two-tone construction that distinguishes the Matelassé from purely steel alternatives and connects the watch to the Chanel fine jewelry tradition. The black dial is the most remarkable element — its surface is cut and faceted in the same diamond quilting pattern as the Matelassé handbag, creating a three-dimensional textured surface that catches light at every angle and shifts between matte and brilliant black as the viewing angle changes. Gold-tone dauphine hands provide legibility against the textured black surface without disrupting the dial's visual integrity, and the black onyx cabochon crown at 3 o'clock adds Chanel's signature jeweled crown detail. The wide quilted black lambskin strap — itself a piece of Chanel leather goods craftsmanship — tapers from its full width at the case to a narrower width at the gold-tone fold-over clasp engraved with the Chanel name, completing a watch that is as much a fashion accessory as a timepiece.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"ASSAY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47430041632958,"sku":"3652","price":2307.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0508\/5724\/6910\/files\/Vintage-1993-Chanel-Matelasse-H0109-18K-Gold-Steel-Black-Dial-Quilted-Watch-Watch.jpg?v=1779352303","url":"https:\/\/ch.assayjewelers.com\/it\/products\/vintage-1993-chanel-matelasse-h0109-18k-gold-steel-black-dial-quilted-watch","provider":"ASSAY","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
