Catalogue Note

Accompanied by a Cartier fitted presentation box. 

It is interesting to note that the majority of examples of this model at auction feature gilt dials, whereas the present lot has a white dial. This variation makes it resemble watches from the Tank family, however its curved elongated shape differentiates it from almost all of those.
