WOW! WOW! WOW! Bravo Cartier!
I don;t know where to start but WOW again! The Annual Cal has a noce and different expression I don;t recall seeing in other annual cals.. Patek.. are you paying attention?
The WG Per cal I also very very nice and even the so call entry level Tourbi. The Poacket Watch is fantastic and the repeater... WOW.
WOW WOW WOW again and well done from the house of Cartier.

Breaking news: Cartier Fine Watchmaking at SIHH 2012
Cartier Fine Watchmaking at SIHH 2012 comprises a solid and varied range. At the very top is a new calibre in the minute repeater, but there are also useful new entry level timepieces, like the new annual calendar with an eminently practical display. We’l...

The annual calendar
is EUR25,500 in rose gold before tax. Diameter is 45 mm. All the movements are in-house save for the grande complication pocket watch, which is Renaud and Papi, and the Flying Tourbillon which is based on a Roger Dubuis ebauche. - SJX This message has bee...
Great report!
I liked the Cadran Love, though found the display-back a bit perplexing. Seeing more of the technology behind the Masse secret makes it a more interesting timepiece, it isn't just a regular movement flipped upside down. A

Another take on the peripheral winding Patek did in the 70s and Bucherer more recently. - SJX
Nice!
Becoming more of a fan of Cartier. They definitely have a unique brand design identity and some of these designs are quite attractive! The annual calendar looks interesting design-wise, would be nice to see it in person to comment on the 'business' of the...
