Not an ordinary Cartier, but a special creation from the maison’s high jewelry-inspired line of the 1980s. Crafted in 18k yellow gold, the watch is richly adorned with 32 asscher-cut diamonds around the bezel, each precisely angled to follow the curved edges of the case. The white enamel dial stands apart from Cartier’s usual designs, with fine black stick markers tipped in points, quarter Arabic numerals, and blued-steel hands. Matching the bezel, the lugs are playfully accented with asscher-cut diamonds, while a diamond-set crown completes the lavish detailing.

It is fitted with a Cartier black silk strap attached to a row of round diamond bars, and fastened by a Cartier-signed 18k gold deployant clasp for easy wear. Inside, the watch is powered by the caliber 852 manual-wind movement, with the inner case back stamped C.HO—likely the mark of its distinguished case maker.. Rarely encountered on the market, this vintage Cartier embodies the brand’s artistry at its most opulent—an elegant treasure for special occasions or for collectors drawn to the unusual.
