Cartier

I have the feeling to write the same words years after years but one again, Cartier was the most active and creative brand of the SIHH. Not a surprise when we know the turnover share of Cartier within Richemont but not so obvious when you have in the same...  

... which is a 2015 novelty. I will do it later this year. Fx

Surprising... Best, and thanks for this comprehensive report, Fx. Nicolas

Well done. Best wishes, Joel

Dear FrX, Thank you for the rapid overview report of the Cartier new watches for 2015 with more reports to come. SOLID CASE BACK I agree that the Cartier Rotonde Reversed Tourbillon should have been made more 'PuristS' by a solid caseback. That would have...  

And yes, we will come back with more details on some of these watches. Fx

Thanks for this great report, Fx. Cartier continues to dazzle as in recent years with some amazing high-end novelties. The Crash is perhaps my favorite SIHH release for 2015 from ANY brand. It is like a dream...and given its very limited production and pr... 

I had a different sort of experience. First of all, the brand beefed up their booth artificially by including a lot of jewelry and jewelry watches. Understandable for a jewelry/watch brand such as Cartier, but a bit disappointing nevertheless. Then we hav... 

Yes the Cartier booth is the larger one, logic when we consider the weight of Cartier in Richemont turnover... Logic to see jewels in the booth since Cartier is also a jeweler... you have the same with Piaget... but sorry, I didn't count the people per sq... 

The new collection is simply underwhelming for me. Looks like a small tweak. I would've preferred a new bezel entirely, what VC did with their Harmony collection.

About Cle being a strategic collection - the booth featured in its windows many historical pieces. There is a reason why many of them are not in production - Cartier has a long line of designs that were not successful and were abandoned a few years after.... 

Cartier did it again! I hope this year I will not hear comments like Cartier is more a jeweller than a manufacture... Now about watches: 1. Rotonde de Cartier Reversed Tourbillon I don't like the combination tourbillon + mainspring barrel, clutch lever, e... 

Cartier has produced a very splendid watch here. Thanks for terrific report Foversta!

Yes, we can say that the movement produces the same WOW even if of course it is very different: not the same decoration style, not the same feeling of depth but... as gorgeous and as fascinating. I have to confess that it embodies a style which was not us... 

The "Crash" is a real stunner. I can't wait to see it and try it on. And I will be following with great interest how things go with the "Cle". In pictures it has a real presence.

And of course, we will come back to these watches during the year! Fx
