Specialist note
This large and impressive wristwatch is not necessarily what may spring to mind when one thinks ‘Cartier’ yet they have very much approached this watch with the mindset that has earnt the brand the name ‘The King of Jewellers’. Executed in palladium, a rare and unusual material of choice, this watch has the sportier and more ‘rough and ready’ look of stainless steel, whilst wearing like a regal platinum wristwatch.
The skeletonization is beautifully executed. The movement is rather small which gives the watch the impression that it is floating on air. Presented in excellent condition, this is an interesting opportunity for a collector to acquire an unusual yet certainly impressive and rare Cartier wristwatch.
