Nice looking watch.
A watch that has classic style that will definitely be timeless in the future.
Definitely not to everyone's taste, this is definitely a high profile watch that is definitely for those who have unique personalities, personalities even more unique than watches are round (or square for that matter).
This crash is a delight to the senses.
Give me this over the new Calibre de Cartier, it will be a better classic than the overly modern Ballon Bleu. And a bit more unique than the current Cartier Bagnoire and Tank classics that have graced the Vanderbuilts, Carnegies, and other tycoons, but still a classic despite its unique-ness.
The return of the Cartier Crash!
The Crash is one of Cartier's most iconic and desirable case shapes. Legend has it that a Cartier wristwatch, probably a Maxi Ovale or Bagnoire, was involved in a car crash and sent back for repair. Upon seeing it, Jean-Jacques Cartier, who ran Cartier Lo...
The Crash never left
It was always available as a special order, but this is the first time in several years that it is available as a limited edition that will be sold openly in stores. - SJX
That design process is quite "me"..I believe it may be true.
SJX...you KNOW I would come up with serious ideas that would come to pass and be approved with a coincidental madness.
The Dali-esque watch is definitely up your alley
It matches the sculpture you have! ;-) - SJX
Wonder how it would look
on a guy, minus the blings and on a strap. A very interesting design. Would have been even better if it was inspired by Dali (instead of an accident). Look forward to see your SIHH report about it. Thanks. Melvin
It is too small for men but
It might work ass a dress watch under a cuff with a dinner jacket. Even then it is too small, and the shape is quite feminine. - SJX
Agree. A proportional larger version
might work, but could make the watch lose its distinctive characteristic & feel. Perhaps something for Cartier to think work out ;p Melvin
I would like to see an oversized, skeletonised Crash with crashed bridges
Remember you heard that here first. - SJX
Very, very honestly...
.. I just can't figure out why Cartier made this model.... Designed by Dali? Sorry to say that unfortunately, not for me (or for me to choose for my lady, if any :-)) But, nice pics and the model :-) Best, Ken Happy new year!
