Finding the Right wrist-watches for You
Antique, new and vintage wristwatches have captured the hearts and minds of all manner of watch collectors as well as the watchmakers themselves — it's time you found your own.
Certain vintage watches for men and iconic watch designs for women are sought after not only because of their graceful proportions or innovative materials but also because of the illustrious histories of the houses that created them, histories that they stylishly embody.
Bulgari’s legendary Serpenti watch was on everyone’s list after the collection’s bold bracelet, which technically debuted after the timepiece, graced the wrist of actress Elizabeth Taylor. If anything, elaborately crafted timepieces — the unmistakably boxy silhouette of Cartier Tank watches, the elegant and minimal Calatrava designed by legendary Swiss house Patek Philippe — are even more effective than the shape we associate with traditional wristwatches.
Form watches — the all-encompassing moniker bestowed upon non-round watches — are making headlines and completing contemporary fashionable ensembles the world over. At the same time, both casual fans and careful collectors are drawn to the unbeatable charm of vintage styles, such as the icons designed by Omega that even James Bond can’t resist.
In the early days of watchmaking, watches were fragile enough that they necessitated protection from the elements. Now, wristwatches made of gold and steel can withstand the harshest climates — even 100 meters underwater, in the case of Rolex’s Submariner. Designer Gérald Genta, whose range of clients included Rolex, created for Audemars Piguet the first luxury sports timepiece to be made from stainless steel. First introduced in 1972, the Royal Oak was a perfect choice for blending the form and function that are now synonymous with sports watches.
Are you shopping for a wristwatch? It’s good to keep your needs as well as your specific personal style in mind: A smaller, subtle timepiece is a good fit for small wrists. When will you be wearing your new accessory? There’s a versatile model out there for everyday wear, while a rugged, feature-heavy watch is a safe bet if you’re prone to embarking on all-weather activities in the great outdoors.

The Panthère de Cartier and Clé de Cartier watches are also popular pieces. Shop a range of authentic Cartier watches from top sellers on 1stDibs.
- Are Cartier watches respected?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertDecember 4, 2023Yes, Cartier watches are respected by many collectors due to their innovative designs, reliable mechanisms and fine craftsmanship. One of Cartier’s earliest major successes was the Santos de Cartier watch—one of the world's first modern wristwatches for men. Louis Cartier designed the timepiece in 1904 for his friend, the popular Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont, who wanted to be able to check the time more easily while flying. Another of Cartier’s famous timepieces is the Tank watch, which was inspired by the linear form of military tanks during World War I. On 1stDibs, find a wide variety of Cartier watches.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 6, 2023Which Cartier watch is the most iconic is open to debate. One of the French luxury brand's most influential watches is the Cartier Tank, which debuted in 1917.

It was introduced in 1914, and its original design drew inspiration from a painting of a panther by artist George Barbier. Shop a large collection of Cartier watches on 1stDibs.

- Are Cartier watches automatic?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Most Cartier watches are quartz, but the iconic Tank watch is automatic. While quartz watches work due to a pre-installed battery, automatic watches use a spring system and are self-winding.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022What Cartier watch is the most famous is largely a matter of personal opinion.

- 1stDibs ExpertJune 15, 2023To tell what year your Cartier watch was made, you can typically look at the serial number on the back. On most timepieces, the first two digits correspond to the year of production. For example, a serial number starting with 87 would indicate a watch made in 1987. Experts suggest working with a professional in the field of vintage fashion when it comes to determining the age of a Cartier watch. On 1stDibs, find a collection of Cartier watches.
- 1stDibs ExpertMay 5, 2023The best way to know what Cartier Tank watch you have is to check the serial number on the back of the case.

- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 14, 2023To tell the model of your Cartier watch, locate its model number. On most timepieces, you'll find this eight-digit code on the back of the case. It also appears on the warranty card. Once you have the number, you can use trusted online resources to identify your watch. Find a large collection of Cartier watches on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 21, 2023Yes, a Cartier watch can last a lifetime, provided that you care for and maintain it properly. Most Cartier watches need servicing by an authorized repair person at least once every three years. Follow the maintenance schedule included with your watch for the best results.

- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 22, 2022To tell if a Cartier watch is real, turn the watch over and examine the markings on the back of the case.

But anyone can wear a Cartier Tank watch.

Find a variety of Cartier Tank watches on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertMarch 31, 2023What is special about the Cartier Tank watch is its unique design. The watch's rectangular shape is meant to conjure images of train tracks.
