Cartier Wrist Watches
King Edward VII of England called Cartier the “jeweler of kings and king of jewelers.” Established in 1847 by Louis-François Cartier, the French maison was from its beginnings a darling of the aristocracy. But Cartier is also known for its luxury watches. It was the founder’s grandson, Louis Cartier, who cemented its reputation as a trendsetting watchmaker. In 1904, he made one of the first men's wristwatches for a friend, Brazilian coffee-plantation heir Alberto Santos-Dumont.
Although the pocket watch was the de rigueur men’s accessory of the day, Santos-Dumont, a pioneering aviator, found his own hard to consult while keeping his plane aloft. Louis fashioned a timepiece with a flat, square case on a leather strap that could be referred to easily at a glance. Named in honor of Louis’s friend, the Santos was eventually produced for sale in 1911.
Deemed daring and modern, men’s wristwatches became a vogue among the elite. Capitalizing on his success, Louis released the Tonneau in 1906. Its barrel-shaped case, another departure from the traditional round pocket watch, was embraced by other savvy watchmakers and remains a perennial favorite.
However, the Tonneau was soon eclipsed by Louis’s most iconic design. During the First World War, he was so impressed by the Renault tanks he saw on the Western Front that in 1917, he created a watch inspired by their industrial forms — the Cartier Tank watch.
Louis’s inventive streak didn’t stop at men’s watches. In 1906, he took a traditional round ladies’ case and stretched it into an elegant oval. The style was later dubbed the Baignoire for its resemblance to the elongated curves of a bathtub. In 1914, he commissioned artist George Barbier to illustrate an invitation to an upcoming exhibition. The resulting Dame à la panthère marked the debut of the animal that would become synonymous with the house.
That same year, Cartier introduced its first jewel incorporating the panther motif: a diamond watch with onyx spots, the inspiration for the current women’s Panthère model. After Louis’s death, in 1942, his legacy continued in the brand’s penchant for timepieces with unusual shapes. Its ultimate expression may be the Dalí-esque Crash watch, introduced in 1967 and said to be modeled on a Baignoire pulled from a car wreck.

Cartier Vintage Pasha 18K Yellow Gold 38mm Perpetual Calendar Automatic Watch
By Cartier
Located in New York, NY
Cartier Pasha, a line first presented in the heady '80s and based on a watch that was, according to Cartier, presented to the Pasha of Marrakech in 1943.
Originally intended for the wrists of men but famously adopted by many women, the Pasha is, on the face of it, a round dress watch. Certainly, in describing it thus, you would not be incorrect.
If the Pasha is the type of watch that catches your attention, there's a lot to like in this 18K Yellow Gold chronograph variant circa 1986 of the elegant collection. Quickly familiar as a member of Cartier's distinct Pasha design family via its integrated case silhouette, and clean dial, the model is elegant and versatile on the wrist.
And this wouldn't be a Pasha without the canteen-style crown protector, which has to be screwed off to access a smaller crown for manually winding the movement and setting the time.
The signature stylized Arabic numerals are gone to make way for the chronograph sub-dials against the White porcelain dial. The sub-dials are slightly lower than the main dial which adds a nice depth perspective to the execution as a whole.

Cartier Vendome Louis Cartier Trinity Date Three 18k Golds with 3 Gold Strap
By Cartier
Located in PARIS, FR
CARTIER
Founded in 1847
For the discerning ones
Wear Cartier watch it's integrate the club of famous clients : Jackie Kennedy, Princess Diana, the Duchess of Windsor, Princess Grace, Barbara Hutton, Elizabeth Taylor, Andy Warhol, Yves Saint Laurent, Truman Capote, Cary Grant, Clark Gable, Jean Cocteau, Mohamed Ali amongst countless others.
About the Cartier Trinity Collection
Louis Cartier himself envisioned the first piece of the Trinity collection in the form of a ring in 1924. Three bands of white gold, yellow gold, and rose gold were intertwined to create a one-of-a-kind piece. Cartier designed this iconic piece at the request of French writer, designer, playwright, artist, and filmmaker, Jean Cocteau. The two had a longstanding relationship and a mutual admiration for each other's work. Jean Cocteau would go on to wear the signature Trinity ring on his pinky finger for the rest of his life. Along with this endearing tale of two friends, the inception of the Trinity collection came during the Art Deco Era, a time where everything was heavily ornamented and decorated. The Cartier Trinity ring was unlike many other designs and was brave for its pure architecture and style.
Each color of 18K gold in a Trinity ring is said to represent one of the aspects of a relationship:
- The white gold band symbolizes enduring friendship.
- The yellow gold band is said to represent the loyalty or fidelity of marriage.
- The rose gold band stands for true love.
Make the perfect gift with this marvelous Trinity Louis Cartier watch.
