A fragment of Johnny's jacket, the soul of this eternal rocker
The 2017 Hallyday collection includes an authentic piece of the black leather jacket worn by Johnny Hallyday during the presentation of a gold record. This authentic jacket, provided by the Hallyday family, was cut into 3mm fragments in our approved laboratories, then encapsulated at 9 o'clock under a sapphire crystal. Crafted by his official designer, Gérard Sené, based in Los Angeles, this unique piece embodies the soul of rock. The collection is limited to 2,017 numbered copies.
“What I am, I owe to the stage.”
— Johnny Hallyday
Official partnership with the Hallyday family
Col&MacArthur collaborates with the Hallyday family to celebrate Johnny Hallyday's legacy. This collaboration came to fruition during the official exhibition "Johnny Hallyday L'Exposition" in Paris and Brussels. Thanks to this partnership, the black leather jacket worn by Johnny Hallyday was presented to Col&MacArthur by the singer's family in 2022. Col&MacArthur also obtained permission to affix Johnny's official signature to the back of each watch, out of deep respect for his memory.
