Cartier: Watches & Wonders 2013 Hot Post
Friends,
As The Watches & Wonders 2013 closes in Hong Kong, I can make a quick Hot Post with this iPad thingy!
Most of the novelties from SIHH 2013 were shown plus a few pieces like the concept prototypes ID-One and ID-Two. Of course the ID watches are not for sale and kept under lock & key but as a special treat for The Watch magazine and PuristS readers in Hong Kong........
Mystery Tourbillon
More turning from Cartier
Bewitching green eyes of La Panthere......
Croco plays a cameo role
La Phoenix does a turn
Exquisite brooch and watch-in-one
Happy shiny ladies with the masculine Cartier MC background
Why they were happy!
ID-One out of its security box and that was a very special gesture!
Niobium-Titanium alloy
ID-Two was also unleashed and some PuristS were weak at the knees.....
This was an impossible event......
Although the ID watches are not for sale, some concepts are transposed into the production models and here is one of them......
I like it when a dream becomes reality!
Regards,
MTF

Thanks for the 'Watches & Wonders' update MTF
Great to seeing some watches we don't see that often in the flesh. Unfortunately i was'nt there, so cool to see part of the show. GEO
The Watch magazine and PuristS were very appreciative
Geo, In a culture of "face", the gesture was deeply appreciated; that we could actually see and hold (carefully) the 'impossible' watches. I have never seen them "out of the bulletproof box"! Thanks for your support. Regards, Melvyn
That really was a Hot Post
I never expected to see a hands on with the incredible ID Two concept watch. This one blows me away, not just for its technical achievements, but also for the very cool vacuum sealed transparent ceramic case ! Looking forward to seeing something realized ...
Thanks a lot Melvyn for the post!
You managed to see... and handle some hot pieces! Thanks! Fx
Nice... I missed most of it. Damn!
Cartier watches are getting better and better and more creative.... Yes, I, too, hope some of my dreams come true one day..... Ken
We missed you but understand the Lange responsibilities
Ken, We missed you but guess the Lange and Soehne lunch for a few Japanese PuristS over-ran. Regards, MTF
