Cartier was founded in Paris in 1847 by Louis Francois Cartier and is one of the pioneers in watchmaking style. Cartier was one of the first watchmakers to introduce a rectangular shape, thus becoming a leader of uniquely designed timepieces. This is reflected in their collection consisting of the iconic Tank and Santos watches, both which have become classics. Cartier played a major role in promoting the shift in popularity from pocket to wristwatches. Size and weight may deviate from the manufacturer’s indication. All watches are hand-measured and weighed.
