A Cartier Diabolo reference 1440 in the small model, crafted in 18k yellow gold. This early-2000s example features the model’s distinctive extended lugs—often referred to as officer’s lugs—each tipped with a blue cabochon bullet end that complements the prominent cabochon-set crown, here with a more gently domed profile.
The bright white dial is classically Cartier, displaying black Roman hour numerals, an outer minute track, and elegant blued-steel Breguet-style hands. Powered by a quartz movement for easy, worry-free maintenance, the watch is fitted with an adjustable French-made black lizard strap and secured by an 18k Cartier deployant clasp.
Although not among Cartier’s most widely known models, the Diabolo holds undeniable charm—its chunky, quirky design offering a delightful alternative within the brand’s canon.
