All they are interested in is to pocket the money. At this rate, 10 years from now there will be no heritage or respect left for the brand.

The disappointment that is Cartier today…

4 samples of the Santos-Dumont Xl with so many issues! no idea why. The problem is their boutique were made aware of the issues but they just resold the same timepieces with zero care.

Glad to know im not the only person who notice the dramatic change in treatment since 2015! ive seen so many terrible QC issues with the burgundy reverso but JLC took action and actually recalled the faulty batches and made it right.

I own not the most expensive watch

But my Richemont from 2K is wel made. I loupe my watch like Sherlock Holmes, and i am surprised how good it is made. Even the Sellita movement is doing fine. Yes, it depends on models and brands. I think the warrantee that’s given is the only possibility ...
I'll have to check mine as well...

It's in safe and I'll plan a visit soon. Your post has made me nervous. I thought Cartier was taking care of such details by default!
