I agree with you...
Like you, I would have loved to see it a bit smaller... but what a gorgeous watch. Flat, thin, elegant. Thanks Robin for this nice post! Fx
I must admit too...

Your pictures made me...
go to the Cartier boutique in the hotel lobby this morning...It is a gorgeous watch...I'm thinking now, tempted too, might I add, so I got a Montblanc pen to solve my current "pen problem" to soothe the itch for a while ;-)

Very good point Helen
