It’s a nay. it’s a resounding nay. it’s awful, atrocious, cheaply made, no design, no aesthetics, no quality. That thing costs 30 Eur to produce and it screams “asian sweatshop”.
My questions are practical: How do you not get contact dermatitis from that? And how do you clean the leather? Coz that's gonna stink from sweat pretty quickly.
At least, this „headphone-necklace-watch-thing“ kind of fits their fake nails from the Marseille cruise collection… very very disappointing to see this. It‘s a serious punch into my stomach. 😰
@@SuperDacob I guess some things will just keep hunting us for ever after. It‘s not the ghost of Christmas Past, but the ghost of Marseille 23/24 Cruise. 👻 To answer your question about what they were thinking; the answer is: Pretty much nothing. At all. 🙊 This is probably why this „watch-necklace-earpod-thing“ fits the fake nails so well. It‘s actually a reason to purchase the nails. When wearing the nails, you‘ll be able to tear the headphone‘s wires apart. So there is even a use for them. Apart from this, it‘s just completely useless and limits your freedom of movement tremendously. ‚Self inducted restriction‘ is most certainly and obviously not a new trend, I‘m afraid.
"Are the headphones so you can hear the clock ticking?" 🤣🤣🤣 This has to be the strangest thing ever, especially the whole thing with the jack. Uh...research and development fail!
It's for retro nerds....using old music tech devices. For example analogue phones are also coming back. It's just a desperate attempt by Chanel to have people talking about the brand.
You would've thought this "device" was from the 2000's, the height of the iPod era and extravagance. It's so... LATE... It's like the folks at Chanel were like "let's make the most IMPRACTICAL and OBSOLETE object" Wired headphones and a faceless quartz watch on a long heavy chain? WHO IS THIS FOR? even in 2005 this would've been questionable.
So I actually love this, I wear wired headphones and I like that with this necklace you don't have to constantly wind up the cord and put them away in my purse, like if I'm going into a store. This way they can just hang from the necklace. I don't want this Chanel one, but I will look for something that keeps my headphones out like this. It reminds me of reader glasses that have the necklace attachment. I love wired headphones, I've never used wireless headphones, and I literally use my headphones all day long. I had no idea that wired headphones were coming back, I felt pretty uncool using my wired headphones the past few years. But I just did not want to switch to wireless headphones.
I almost recently purchased another Chanel bag. I’m glad I didn’t because I have a feeling that many luxury houses are about to fall flat on their faces.
That is the most impractical thing I have ever seen. Earphones are designed to be practical, grab them and go, turn on your music, easy! Then you add leather, the watch as well... WTF. I just want to listen to music and leave the house!
Most of the world has kinda always thought luxury was always impractical. Maybe as a way of dealing with the absolute fact that they couldn’t afford to buy it or maybe it’s true that luxury isn’t and never has been practical.
Apple makes an adapter which I had to buy because I can't wear the earbuds and need an old school set of headphones like these. That's $22.00 more. Ugh.
Actually just found the details about this. According to the spec it does work with new phones ‘It’s also delivered with a pair of adapters that allow it to connect to Lightning or USB-C ports.’ Not meaning to redeem Chanel, but will anyone really buy these, they’re crazy expensive.
i would buy if it was just the necklace with the watch. i like thinking I could glance down and see the time. I've always wanted a pocket watch. also whomever designed the jack/oulet probably thought of hooking it up to a cassette or CD player lol. also what you were describing Dacob of the watch part having a smart side, made me think of an iPod shuffle lol. at least the shuffle was clip-able/wouldnt move around lol.
I can’t do wireless because I lose them all the time. But no. I wouldn’t wear this. I do have the Chanel premier from the 80s which works just fine without the headphones attached lolllll
They will sell the adaptor each for any type of smartphone, and probably all set of accessories for it, that is why is so unpractical, as much comfy you want it more accessories and matching pieces you will need to buy, Very smart from sells point of view.
I hate it. Saw it in the livestream. I love watches and I'm picky with them. I'm not even a luxury watch person, but I like them to look nice. This watch is a huge NO.
I laughed just as hard seeing it a second time!!!!!! I think their "pieces" are going to get weirder and weirder...not in a good way. But it'll be fun to watch.You commentary makes it gold. Thanks, Dacob.
I have falling shoulders. No bags ever stay put . That's why i need backpacks or to handle bags. I refuse to be carrying stuff on my hands so backpacks for ever. Crossbody bags look bad on people with large boobs.
I do have a phone with a headphone jack, but my phone is designed for audiophiles. It also has quadruple DAC, and the power to run audiophile headphones. These earbuds don't look quality, the wires look like cheap crap, the necklace is ugly the whole thing looks unwieldy. I choose my phone because I like really good quality sound. This is not it . Quality headphones have corded wires, even better if they are replaceable, and i first thought the watch would be an music player as well. (To small to give you high quality sound) BTW, the Sony Experia, one of the most expensive flagship phones around, also still has a headphone jack.
The Samsung Galaxy A smartphones, at least the lowest spec ones, still have a headphone jack 😅 But I'll pass on this Chanel thing because I recently bought Samsung earplugs with cables. I'd never thought that I'd be right up there with luxury fashion, minus the impractical looking stuff 😂 I got them because they were cheap and can't fall out and disappear.
The necklace is inspired by the watch from the 80's so obviously you are going to plug it into your portable stereo player 😂😂. Hope you guys still have it somewhere in your attics 😂
At first I thought they'd do a Gen Z choker watch but no this overpriced useless thing that if you ask me is an offense to the premiere design. You had a great idea to make it as a sort of iPod shuffle where it is an independent electronic item but sadly, you don't work there. Oh well, D- still great content and great review of this as always.
Now we clearly understand why Virginie left. This is unthinkable, so tacky
It’s a nay. it’s a resounding nay.
it’s awful, atrocious, cheaply made, no design, no aesthetics, no quality. That thing costs 30 Eur to produce and it screams “asian sweatshop”.
It's so when we are on the go, we can listen to RUclips videos about how poor Chanel quality is on poor quality Chanel headphones!
What is it they say, “money can’t buy taste”
Chanel was like: yay, we are a tech company now! 🥳😂😂
Hahahah the shaaaade 😂😂😂💖💀
The next release: the chanel walkman! 😂
Price in the UK is £12,600 for anyone who may be interested. 😇
Crazy, bit i know of at least two individuals who will buy it!!😅
They’ll be in the designer glass case at TJ Maxx on clearance 😂
My questions are practical: How do you not get contact dermatitis from that? And how do you clean the leather? Coz that's gonna stink from sweat pretty quickly.
Most phones don’t even have a port for those headphones
It looks like they got the idea 10 years ago, and only now the production rolled out...don't know what happened here....why is it not wireless????
At least, this „headphone-necklace-watch-thing“ kind of fits their fake nails from the Marseille cruise collection… very very disappointing to see this. It‘s a serious punch into my stomach. 😰
Omg… just when I thought I had finally forgotten those atrocious fake nails… you reminded me of them 😂😂😂😂💖

NO!!! omg, i'm looking it up and clutching my pearls

And naturally those headphones have the thinnest wires. I see that heavy chain getting yanked and tearing the headphones lol.
My thoughts too

Hi, I saw the ad on TV many times, and I swear, I didn't get it was about ear plugs 😅😂❤
Walkman sold separately by Chanel.
I have the Chanel J12 and so far that will be the only Chanel watch I’ll invest into!
Stick with the vintage on all designers.. better quality⭐️❤️💕

They’ve got planned obsolescence down to an art form 😂
😂
And it's not even made to work with a iPhone (the jack is wrong)
Ewww! Absolutely like being chained up and.unable to move freely. Plus its ugly.
this feels like 10 steps backward. Once you go wireless you never go back!🤣
Walkmans are trendy again. And most phones have gone back to the jack.
Which phones 😳? Serious question.
@@vivibuffy3352 samsung, nokia, most brands that are not apple. People generally did not like wireless earbuds. Too expensive and easily lost.
I almost recently purchased another Chanel bag. I’m glad I didn’t because I have a feeling that many luxury houses are about to fall flat on their faces.
i guess "timeless" is not in the chanel branding anymore.. to me this kind of disqualifies them as a luxury company
Oh, Jesus... Mary and Joseph, the carpetner ....ridiculous
This is not even wireless...
It kept on getting worse as the pictures went on omg 😂😂
this will be cool...plugged into my iPod😂
If I remember correctly, the iPod mini was available in gold.
@@jochenkraus7016 ooo chic combo!
I’m a Gen x’er. So I’d need my watch/clock to be Flavor Fav size, because my eyesight is not up to snuff 😂
You know Chanel is beyond tripping at those point. Stop Chanel, just Stop.
I'm Gen X. This watch, necklace, whatever it is, is the stupidest thing I've ever seen. Never going to buy it.
That is the most impractical thing I have ever seen. Earphones are designed to be practical, grab them and go, turn on your music, easy! Then you add leather, the watch as well... WTF. I just want to listen to music and leave the house!

The Samsung A9 tab has the jack, at least some of the models. It's new.
Apple makes an adapter which I had to buy because I can't wear the earbuds and need an old school set of headphones like these. That's $22.00 more. Ugh.

GEN alpha has been buying a lot of vintage iPods on the market or old iPods like for example classics
Yep. First thing that occurred to me what phone works with this? Not an apple phone. But wait, next they will release a necklace with an adaptor.
I found a new article about it. It comes with adapters for IPhone and USB-C.
I use only Apple phones but Samsung has a port for plug-in Ear Pods
Afaik Samsung removed it from the more expensive ones.
What the hell ? 😂 honestly who comes up with this garbage. Your commentary is hilarious Dacob 😂😘😘😘😘 xxx
Thanks Aysh 😂😂💖💖💖
Omg I have never laughed so much, comedy time 😂🤣😂🤣 What will go will go, but this Watchlace👂 is a total no!!! 😅 Xx
Chanel-igans!!
😂💖
OMG! CHANEL mist be desperate to create such a tacky and cheap looking contraption.
They should had at least a retro MP3 player you attach to your belt or something
On Google it said 16 thousand for necklace watch
Seriously though, is it any worse that the chain water bottle holders Lagerfeld did in the mid 1990s?
i would buy if it was just the necklace with the watch. i like thinking I could glance down and see the time. I've always wanted a pocket watch. also whomever designed the jack/oulet probably thought of hooking it up to a cassette or CD player lol. also what you were describing Dacob of the watch part having a smart side, made me think of an iPod shuffle lol. at least the shuffle was clip-able/wouldnt move around lol.
So funny, it will plug into my iPhone 8. This Technology was obsolete 10 years ago when I was teaching Aquatic Excersise
This looks like a mish mash of a imagined futuristic device from the 20s and some more "modern" creation of a detached overthinking designer. 😅
IDK what is wrong with me, but I am totally digging that watch headphone thing! LOL 🤣🤣
Just say no. ⛔
A necklace with wired earbuds isn't a bad idea. A watch on there, no thanks. I will keep my Garmin, thank you very much.
Wow, that's a lot going on. LOL
I'll never understand persisting a brand after the person is deceased or retires
It’s obvious the designer was not tech savvy. Limited just fine with me!
10:07 You’re amazing 😂😂 Round of applause for this video, you had me rolling! 👏👏👏
Ideas for Chanel..... record player??? Boom box???
Omgosh it reminded me of stethoscope hahahahah for your heart rate when you get mugged hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Omg, Dacob, it’s hilarious what a Chanel desperation 😳🤪😝😂😂😂🤣🙏❤️
It look cute on picture,wearing it is horrible. Tbh, i would have expexted wish or shien to create this type of crazy item chanel???? 😂😂😂
Wow 😂that’s so tacky!! What’s going on with Chanel! So disappointed!
Rewatching…
That Chanel necklace is too much.
Side note your hair is BEAUTIFUL
I can’t do wireless because I lose them all the time. But no. I wouldn’t wear this. I do have the Chanel premier from the 80s which works just fine without the headphones attached lolllll
🖤the necklace but ✂️ the 🎧😂
They will sell the adaptor each for any type of smartphone, and probably all set of accessories for it, that is why is so unpractical, as much comfy you want it more accessories and matching pieces you will need to buy, Very smart from sells point of view.
I guess the point is just to wear it lol it doesn’t seem to be meant for actual headphone use or time reading 😀
Why ruin a beautiful watch with this weirdness? I predict Fall/Winter 2025 sale rack!! Everyone is going wireless with their ear buds so this is odd.
Grandma conceived this 😂
I hate it. Saw it in the livestream. I love watches and I'm picky with them. I'm not even a luxury watch person, but I like them to look nice. This watch is a huge NO.
And i thought the marc jacobs tote bag was turning autism into fashion but this necklace takes the cake 😂
This is why Virginie bounced 🤣 She said, ‘I canNOT.’
Wow I cannot believe this, it is just soo stupid.
I laughed just as hard seeing it a second time!!!!!! I think their "pieces" are going to get weirder and weirder...not in a good way. But it'll be fun to watch.You commentary makes it gold. Thanks, Dacob.
the necklace itself is kinda cute, but the headphones are not it
I have falling shoulders. No bags ever stay put . That's why i need backpacks or to handle bags. I refuse to be carrying stuff on my hands so backpacks for ever. Crossbody bags look bad on people with large boobs.
a dawwwg mess!! good grief have mercy lol
Haha I rather they release a wireless earpod in collaboration with Apple or something? 😅
I really don’t know what kind of madness this is, someone trying to validate their job, god help them, but someone stupid will buy it
Someone wealthy will buy it
Virginie is probably wheezing right now
It’s just disappointing!
Such a terrible idea. 2010 vibes
I'm scared for the future of Chanel LOL...
How much is this contraption?
I read somewhere it's 16k 😮
I do have a phone with a headphone jack, but my phone is designed for audiophiles. It also has quadruple DAC, and the power to run audiophile headphones.

Looked like a snake in the first picture 😂
You know, some luxury brands are known for batsh!t crazy products. I thought Chanel wasn't one of them.
Absolutely the most funny video this far! 🤣 I died!
The Samsung Galaxy A smartphones, at least the lowest spec ones, still have a headphone jack 😅
But I'll pass on this Chanel thing because I recently bought Samsung earplugs with cables. I'd never thought that I'd be right up there with luxury fashion, minus the impractical looking stuff 😂 I got them because they were cheap and can't fall out and disappear.
😂 oh, last decade is retro now?
Yes, Blackpink😊

A hot mess…
