Cartier watches

Initially a jewelry house, Cartier expanded its repertoire to include watches, setting the standard for haute horlogerie. Throughout its illustrious history, Cartier has achieved numerous milestones, including the creation of the iconic Santos de Cartier watch in 1904, designed for aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont, and the introduction of the Tank watch in 1917, inspired by the silhouette of military tanks. These timeless designs have cemented Cartier's reputation as a pioneer in watchmaking, combining exquisite craftsmanship with innovative design. Cartier's commitment to innovation is further exemplified through its development of the revolutionary mystery clock in 1912, featuring floating hands that appear to move without any visible mechanism. Today, Cartier continues to captivate with its timeless creations, offering a range of watches that embody sophistication, luxury, and impeccable craftsmanship, making them coveted symbols of prestige and refinement.
