Cartier Rare Cartier Mini Baignoire Watch Only Ref.W8000017

As a loyal fan of Cartier, you must know how special this watch is! The history of the Baignoire watch can be traced back to 1912 when round and square watches were mainstream. Louis Cartier found inspiration in a design he gave to the head of the Russian Grand Duke, elongating the traditional watch face into a rounded rectangle, a design that was both unique and charming. However, the Baignoire truly got its name in 1970, which means "bathtub" in French, inspired by the curved lines of its case, symbolizing the desire for women wearing it to enjoy moments reminiscent of a relaxing bath. Today, the French elegance of the Baignoire shines brightly in any era and on any occasion. The mini Baignoire being shared today is in excellent condition like new, with a precise movement. We have paired it with a wine red Cartier strap, complementing the vintage silver dial perfectly.
