Why We Love it

Cartier is responsible for some of the most recognizable and successful wristwatches in the history of modern horology. The definitive expert on watch design, the French maison has always been a leader in challenging conventional approaches to watchmaking while pioneering new styling as a fixture in the broader fashion world. 

In the span of the last hundred years or so, Cartier has pushed some of the most recognizable watch designs in history, from the Tank to the Santos to the Crash. In the realm of lady’s watches, few pieces possess the elegance and timeless appeal of the Panthère. The Panthère has a history that is intimately intertwined with the story of Cartier. During the First World War, the Parisian maison designed a ladies’ wristwatch with a spotted diamond and onyx pattern. Commissioned by Louis Cartier, it was a gift to Belgian-French jeweler Jeanne Toussaint, whom he referred to as ‘La Panthère.’

Over a century later, the Panthère line is still a fixture in the Cartier catalog, and the big cat motif appears frequently on watches, jewelry, and more. This particular Panthère de Cartier is a ladies’ staple, fashioned in 18K rose gold with a gorgeous double wrap correct 18K rose gold bracelet. This piece features a factory diamond set bezel, white Roman dial completed with a chemin de fer minute track, and topped with blued steel hands. 

This piece is powered by a quartz movement, befitting a jewelry-forward piece like this one. What's more, this piece is delivers with all of its factory goodies including its inner box, outer box, papers and Certificate of Origin.

This watch is elegance personified in rose gold. It is truly the most elevated expression of Cartier for women, and would serve as an accent in a seasoned collection, or as a token dress watch for that momentous occasion.

Brand Story

+
Despite being a purveyor of haute joaillerie, Cartier has had a long tradition of making watches.

It started in 1907, when founder Louis Cartier made what was one of the first wristwatches for his friend Alberto Santos-Dumont. In the following years, the brand made a name for itself with its most famous wristwatch, the Tank, in all its multitudinous forms.

Cartier introduced the Tank in 1917 — which was supposedly inspired by the Renault FT-17 tanks seen on the battlefields of World War I — with a run of six pieces. (According to legend, these were given to American General John J. Pershing and his staff.) Cartier took the look of the Renault tank's treads and applied it to the watch’s lugs, which were integrated via brancards into the case itself. That first run of six pieces increased to thirty-three by 1920, and by the end of the 20th Century, that number stood well in the hundreds of thousands. Indeed, in sheer volume alone, the Tank — in all its various models — is Cartier's largest line of watches.

The Tank Louis was introduced in 1922, followed close on the heels of the Asian-influenced Tank Chinoise. The Chinoise, released amidst a mania for jewelry inspired by the Orient, has a square rather than rectangular case and lugs that resemble the portico of a Chinese pagoda.

From its debut, the Tank would see many variations, each in keeping with Louis Cartier’s taste for clean lines and perfect symmetry. Each variant — from the original Tank to the Tank Louis to the Cintrée with its flirtatious, curvaceous lines — has its passionate devotees. Rudolph Valentino, that sensual star of the silver screen, insisted on wearing his Tank onscreen in The Son of the Sheik, and Clark Gable, Andy Warhol, and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis were among those who sported a one throughout the years.

Other model lines, including the Santos (based upon the original model crafted for Alberto Santos-Dumont) and the Pasha, have developed devoted followers. Indeed, the maison is unique as one of the few jewelry brands to elicit as much passion from collectors as dedicated watch companies.
