Hillary Clinton Seen Wearing Chanel J12 Watch

Filed under: Timepieces / Watches, Celebrity Shopping

While not the only watch she has ever been seen wearing, former First Lady and current Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was just seen wearing a white ceramic lady's Chanel J12 watch. Probably the most popular luxury women's watch around the world today, the Chanel J12 single-handedly made ceramic the "it" material for luxury watches. She is seen wearing the most simple version of the watch - meaning it doesn't have any diamond decoration. Though it does appear as though she is wearing the automatic mechanical version of the watch. The image above is from a State Department press photo of Clinton while talking to a boy's softball team in Azerbaijan. Clinton is wearing the watch right next to a pearl bracelet. Clearly she was intending the white to go with her outfit. Her husband Bill, is a well known watch lover and probably got Hillary into timepieces. While the Chanel J12 is a nice watch, it is extremely common. I wonder what less known timepieces Hillary might have. Thanks to Eric W. for sharing the image with me.
