Q: What is the Chanel Première L 20mm watch?
A: It’s a vintage, Swiss‑made Chanel ladies’ watch from around 2000 with a refined 20mm octagonal case, black lacquered dial, onyx cabochon crown, and Chanel’s signature interwoven black leather‑and‑chain bracelet. This example is reference H0001 and fits a wrist of approximately 15cm or smaller.

Q: What makes the Première’s case design special?
A: The Première is famed for its octagonal case—an aesthetic tribute to the geometry of Place Vendôme in Paris and the stopper of the Chanel N°5 perfume bottle. The minimalist, numeral‑free black dial gives it a jewellery‑like elegance.

Q: What movement does it use and how long does the battery last?
A: Most Chanel Première models from this era use a Swiss quartz movement. Typical battery life is around 2–3 years depending on use and storage. A professional watchmaker can confirm the exact battery type for this specific piece.

Q: How do I set the time on this watch?
A: Gently pull the crown out to the time‑setting position and turn the hands to the correct time. Push the crown back in firmly when finished. This model is usually time‑only (no date), so there’s no date‑setting step.

Q: Is it water‑resistant and can I wear it in the rain or swim with it?
A: Water resistance on vintage watches cannot be guaranteed without recent servicing and pressure testing. Treat it as splash‑resistant at best and avoid swimming, showering or submersion. Keep the leather‑and‑chain bracelet away from moisture to preserve the leather and plating.

Q: Will it fit my wrist, and can the bracelet be resized?
A: This watch fits a wrist of approximately 15cm or smaller. The leather‑and‑chain bracelet is generally a fixed style; modest adjustments may be possible via an experienced jeweller, but adding length requires sourcing compatible genuine links, which can be challenging. Share your wrist measurement and we’ll advise options.

Q: What type of crystal does it have?
A: Many Chanel Première models feature a scratch‑resistant sapphire crystal. If you’d like confirmation for this exact watch, contact us and we’ll verify the crystal type.

Q: How should I care for the gold‑plated hardware and leather‑and‑chain strap?
A: Wipe surfaces with a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents, perfumes and lotions, which can mark leather and degrade plating. Store away from humidity and extreme heat. Light plating wear is normal on vintage pieces; specialist jewellers can re‑plate if desired. Keep the leather dry and avoid twisting the chain weave.

Q: What is included with this listing?
A: As stated, this piece is delivered without accessories (no box or papers). If you need additional documentation or measurements, please contact us and we’ll be happy to help.

Q: Is it authentic, and what warranty and shipping do you offer?
A: A Retro Tale rigorously authenticates every item and guarantees 100% originality. All watches include a 12‑month movement guarantee. We offer free, fully insured DHL shipping, a 14‑day return policy, and 0% customs fees for EU buyers; contact us for any specific delivery or warranty questions.
