Nice to see the back of one of these watches!
It may sound strange, but it is really nice to see a picture of the back of one of these watches for a change. Not by far as exciting as the front of course, but it does give a better picture of the watch as a whole. Also very stunning is the Cat watch, which I didn't even know existed. That is one piece I can actually see my wife wearing! Thanks Anthony for posting these stunning pictures!

A display of CARTIER craftsmanship.....
Hello all! Had a chance to view a rare piece at the Cartier Beverly Hills Boutique on Rodeo Drive. Usually I'm not much for jeweled pieces but when Cartier watch specialist Pierre-Henri B. brought this out, my attention was immediately drawn to the detail...
Thanks DRMW. These are made in La Chaux-de-Fonds
in an area on the ground level where the high jewellery and enamelling workshops are. I am travelling now so can't post my photos of the workshops but will when I get back. - SJX

Hello SJX, I'm sure you got some great stuff for us, looking forward to it when you get back. Safe travels and HAGWE! -MW

Rare piece to see in real life
It really has terrific craftsmanship but I wonder how difficult it is to sell. The fact that it's production is extremely limited probably helps a great deal. However, in my opinion this is not a watch anymore, but art. Thanks for the pictures! Martin

Yeah I purposely took a picture of the back because we never see the back
of these jewelled watches in the press packet. I'm glad I remembered to do so! Cheers, Anthony
