Cartier

( click here for the world's first review of the Calibre de Cartier.) While the high watchmaking collection certainly drew the most attention on this forum, the most commercially important product from SIHH 2010 is the Calibre de Cartier. This watch is si...  

this can only spell success for Cartier as people are spoiled for choice with other brands but for "hard core" Cartier buffs, have been left with just the usual iconic models which they would have already had their fill of all these years. To highlight th...

somehow. Yes for me

I really like to look of the Calibre. Having not done much research on Cartier, I've only seen the roadster, pasha and santos and none of them really inspired me. This year, from the pictures (only), I've been quite impressed. In MY (newbie) eyes, it seem...

Could be a new sports watch. - SJX
