Quintessentially Cartier
There is no other Brand that is internationally demonstrative of the world of luxury quite like Cartier. Bridging the mediums of Watches and Jewellery, Cartier have conquered both and laid a blueprint for the brands that have followed. Established in Paris in 1847, Louis Cartier took over a humble workshop, which spawned the giant it is today. His Grandchildren; Louis, Pierre and Jacques took the Brand even further helping to establish Cartier internationally. In 1902, Cartier’s flagship store in London.
Throughout the last century, Cartier has undoubtedly deserved their recognition as the Master of Shapes. From intricate jewellery that helped create a landscape of artistry across the world to watch designs that remain as relevant as ever, Cartier remain at the forefront of design and technology.
Developing the first ever wrist watch and Pilot’s watch in the Santos series, to the Tank design in 1918; Cartier’s watch designs have stood the test of time. In recent years, reissues of classic designs such as the Panthere de Cartier and Pasha de Cartier have caught the imagination of a whole new generation. With updated and innovative technology such as quick change bracelets and in-house mechanical movements, Cartier continue to prove themselves a powerhouse of the watch industry.

CARTIER COLLECTIONS
Santos de Cartier
In 1904, Louis Cartier was tasked to create a wrist watch for Brazilian aviator, Alberto Santos-Dumont; the Santos de Cartier was born as both the first men’s wrist watch & also the first Pilot’s Watch. A bonafide icon, the design has stood the test of time & beyond.
Tank Must
The Tank Must was brought to the market in the 1970’s, a design born of that era, a classic Tank shape was delivered with colourful and decorated dials. The new Tank Must series continues this legend with a case akin to the classic Tank Louis Cartier but in steel!
Panthère de Cartier
The Panther element of Cartier’s design history was first incorporated by their famous design Director Jeanne Toussaint in the 1930’s. The Panthère de Cartier was released in 1983 mirroring the art scene of the time. Elegant and distinctive, and now back as a pillar in the Cartier pantheon.
BALLON BLEU DE CARTIER
Initially highlighted by the floating ball, the Ballon bleu de Cartier continues Cartier’s mastery of shapes. The crown is hidden into the case, with the dial flowing around this lovely feature. Quickly becoming one of Cartier’s best selling collections, the Ballon Bleu is perfect for almost all occasions.
Pasha de Cartier
Originally developed for the Pasha of Marrakesh as a water resistant sports watch, in 1985, the Pasha de Cartier became a collection in its own right. The signature crown copy makes it both distinctive and instantly recognisable as a Cartier design.
Tank Louis Cartier
Only a true icon can be named after the most famous of the Cartier family. The Tank Louis Cartier, delivered explicitly in precious metal is the most famous Tank model. Curved edges with pointed crown, the modern Louis Cartier collection remains faithful to the original design from the 1920’s.
TANK AMèRICAINE
Enjoying all the hallmarks of classic Cartier Tank models, the Tank Amèricaine takes notes of the vintage Tank Cintrée and modernises the ideal. Brought to market in 1989, making it a relative newcomer in the Tank family, the Americaine has quietly become a fan favourite, partly due to the fact it was initially only offered in precious metals. Available also in steel as of 2017, the Tank Americaine is as stylish as ever fitting perfectly into the Cartier pantheon of watches.
Tank Française
Furthering the mythos of the Tank design, the Cartier Tank Française made its debut in 1996. The Tank design, inspired by military tanks moves into the bracelet with solid links. Offered in both steel and gold, the Tank Française offers options from the every day to the glamorous.
RONDE DE CARTIER
The Ronde de Cartier takes Cartier’s classic design elements and delivers them in a round case. Roman Numerals, sword shaped hands – both quartz and mechanical, precious metal and steel – this Cartier collection offers an option for all watch lovers.
DRIVE DE CARTIER
In 2016, the Drive de Cartier was designed on the foundation of Cartier’s own in-house automatic calibre. Cartier’s emphasis on curves continues with a curved glass and case built to hug the wrist. The Drive element is a reminder from Cartier to push the boundaries and enjoy life!
CLE DE CARTIER
Cartier continues to reign as the maestro of watchmaking design with the Cle de Cartier. Soft curves, clean lines, and a rounded profile, this new shape and harmonious design are a true testament to elegance, precision and proportions made famous by Cartier.
TANK CHINOISE
First brought to market in 1922 alongside other famous Tank models, the Tank Chinoise continues Cartier’s fascination with international design cues.
