Some live shots of the new Cartier Roadster collection . . .
Although I’ve been into horology since high school, my first true watch in this journey was a Cartier Roadster back in 2003: This was my daily wearer for more than a decade. However, as my collection grew, she had become a ‘safe queen.’ I traded her in 20...

I think they nailed it. Faithful to the DNA with appealing modifications. Very nicely done and I look forward to seeing in person.

I have always found the style to be intriguing ( love the tie to cars ) and I’m impressed with the blue dial, I hope to see it live soon.
Thanks for the review — I have never warmed up to the Roadster…
In part, I simply do not like the shape and prominence of the cyclops. But, that being said, it seems like a true-to-form reintroduction of a watch appreciated by many.
I still think the proportions of the original are better.
But I'm glad they reintroduced it.. ...
