Produced in 2005, the present Baignoire Allongée is not lacking in style or substance. Based on the original Allongée design conceived during a renaissance period for Cartier in 1957, this watch features a bold and contemporary 47mm case in an exaggerated elongated oval shape, but is generously curved thus allowing for the watch to wrap around the wrist and wears extraordinarily well.
Featuring the added allure of beautiful diamond-setting throughout the case coupled with a subtle motif dial, this Baignoire is perfect for the modern collector who is looking for a classic and coveted Cartier design, with added flair.
