Chanel takes a stake in Kenissi Manufacture
Chanel continues to strengthen its position in prestigious Watchmaking by taking a stake in Kenissi, a new Swiss manufacturer of automatic movements. This move, initiated in 1993 with the purchase of the G&F Châtelain Manufacture located in La Chaux-de-Fonds, is part of the desire to provide its creations with the highest quality casings and movements. Today the Kenissi Manufacture offers a range of robust and high performance calibers. Currently based in Geneva, Kenissi will be moving to a new building located in Le Locle in 2021. During Baselworld in March 2019, Chanel will present a brand new creation equipped with an automatic movement created by the Kenissi Manufacture.
