It's the demographics >>
It may be that people who appreciate and use Cartier products rather than "colllect" are different from the new collectors of brand names. The same could be said of Audemars Piguet supporters who do NOT collect Royal Oak lines 
Maybe, they are not prone to shout or point to their good stuff? There is no need to draw attention to an old house like Cartier.....
I'm guilty, and my wife is guilty; we have known and used the CPCP lines for years but never posted photos or postings. Don't really know why - maybe like air and water - Cartier just exists.

Interesting SIHH 2007 Cartier: Rotonde de Cartier à grande complication from Collection Privée
From the top end Collection Privée Cartier Paris (CPCP) comes the Rotonde de Cartier à grande complication. I've always liked the aesthetics of the CPCP and respected the quality. One of my favourites from this range is the Pasha tourbillon, using a GP Th...
Ssshhhh >>
SJX, Don't go on to tell everybody about Cartier CPCP watches; it's meant to be a secret pleasure for discerning collectors Louis Cartier (1875-1942) is credited with creating the first man's wristwatch in 1904 for his Brazilian friend and client, aviator...
Totally agree....
Hi Melvyn, SJX, Cartier is my first love in watches and I must confess that while they are obviously known for their mainstream products, it's always a pleasure to show another WIS how Cartier can be on the top choice of watch brands and to what extent Ca...
I'm going to start a rumour about Cartier and FP Journe
but NOBODY must remember where they heard it But first, I must confess that I did not know about any alleged link between FPJ and Cartier for the Cartier Tortue Chrono Monopoussoir.......but that may be why Mrs MTF will wear the FPJ chronographe too. Back...
GP should keep it to themselves
I agree the watches look stunning. I really can't understand why GP doesn't keep the movements to themselves to make them more exclusive especially something like the 3-gold bridges which is so special and such a signature to GP.
GP has supplied the Three Gold Bridges to other companies
Including Panerai (gasp!). That being said GP has selected its partners very carefully, and the use of the Three Gold Bridges in other watches have had no impact on the iconic status or desirability of the GP. I personally think the decision to supply is ...
This one is not a GP movement
G'day, current Cartier tourbillons are not supplied by GP; if recalling correctly, the "Pasha" tourbillon was the last to be a GP movement. Cheers, Peter
Repeater is from Renaud et Papi...
Turtue chronograph monopusher and Rondo day an night are from THA and Tortue perpetual is Jaeger based. The Tortue repeater is the best sounding repeater I ever heard. There is a strange thing about Cartier as "collector's brand". Everyone I have spoken t...
