First of all, congrats Rogi
Blue is definitely the colour of the day ;-)
When I saw and read the FX review, the only thing which disturbed me with this watch was the blue cabochon. Of course, I know it is full part of the Cartier DNA but there is something wrong for a diving watch.
In my mind, a diving watch must be efficient first and, if possible, nice. But, IMHO, there is a lack of "coherence" from Cartier between efficiency and luxury.
What is your opinion about this (finally little) element?
Best wishes

The cabochon/spinel is one of those things that drew me to the piece, I guess it intrigued me at first and wasn't sure if I would like it. I think Cartier want to combine that luxury/utility into a dive watch and this was what they did with the Calibre De...

Are all three bezels a different colour blue depending on the case metal?
Rogi, Thanks for showing the two-tone metal case version of the Calibre de Cartier Diver. It looks different from the all-rose gold and all-steel variants. Even the "blue" looks different.....NO? Calibre de Cartier Diver (Steel) Regards, MTF ...
Great obsevation MTF and I think they are, the materials give...
....each blue a sort of "emotion" to them. In that I mean the all stainless adds a crisp and light feeling to the piece gives the blue (especially the bezel) an appearance that is lighter. The two tone with the addition of the pink gold on the bezel, crow...
Huge congrats my friend!
The Diver is one of the very watches I consider in its two-tones version. It brings a touch of warmth which remains very subtle. A great version and I'm sure that you will enjoy it a lot. Thanks for your post and pics! Fx
