In images released by the brand, the watches are shown to feature a silhouette of Karl’s head on the crown. Emblematic of the designer himself, they feature quirky details: stainless steel bracelets, metallic leather straps, pyramid studs, and chains.

The watches are timed for release in the middle of the fall-winter 2013 collection shows, and at the same time as the opening of the first Karl Lagerfeld store.
