The cloche is not a limited edition
In fact none of the four watches are limited editions but because they are limited production models, they are arguably as difficult to obtain as a limited edition model. 31k euros sounds about right. It is RM150k in Malaysia but I am a customer of Cartier Paris which is where my orders have been placed at.
My Cartier hit list
Over the years, I have graduated from collecting Patek Philippe watches and now focus on independent brands especially after being less than impressed by Patek's new models over the last decade. The only other big brand that I would consider buying a watc...
Thank you Nico!
I had left my order for the cloche and tank cintree the minute they were released on 13 April. But being allocated one is another thing altogether.
Not the most original choice but
I would go for the Cintree, which I find the most elegant of the four. I like the concept of the guichet but the numbers are too small for my liking, not ideal with dwindling eyesight. The cloche does nothing for me when on or off the wrist. The Panthere ...
The Tank Cintree is definitely the most legible
And I agree with you that the figures on the Tank Guichet are not so easy to read even if one's eyesight was good.
I am sure you will be happy with any (or all) of the four 👏🏻😊👍🏻
And keeping fingers crossed. I find you have chosen four truly exquisite pieces. For me the Cartier I truly lust after and that i unfortunately missed when it could have been gotten more easily is the 2396C CPCP Monopussoir. Maybe one day 🤞🏻🤷🏻♂️ ...
The monopusher is a great watch
and yes I would be very pleased even if only one of the four were allocated to me let alone two or three of them.
I will be delighted with one!
I seriously doubt if Cartier would allocate all four to me as I am not a big time collector.
I wish I had your optimism
but Cartier are in an enviable 'demand exceeding supply by many times' position so they can afford to discriminate big time.
Yes I saw the latest auction results
and couldn’t believe my eyes, really interesting times for Cartier. Still I’m sure in time you’ll get the watches you want.
I wish you were working at Cartier Derreck! :-)
Then I know for sure that at least one of the four Cartiers will be mine
I agree with your overall assessment about the design DNA of Cartier.
Of the four on your short list, it would be the Cintree — classic charm.
Thank you Orahu
The Cintree seems to be a popular choice. I have never had one so I would be privileged to have one in my collection.
You and Nico
are from the same school of thought But if I had to choose two, it would be the cloche and the cintree too
Such a lovely shape
and the guilloche on the dial adds class to the watch. I am less sure about the date window though.
I guess I just like
a watch with no date window at all so a two or three handed watch would always be my preference. Just me
Great selection!
Quick question on the "cloche" if i may? Is it limited ans whats the retail price on that baby in your market? I hear around 31k eur?

Tank a guichet for me please..
I do prefer the yellow gold with green strap though, and I don't usually like yellow or rose gold watches.
Very nice!
Is that yours? I try to avoid Cartier platinum watches as they tend to be too heavy for me making them unwearable. Saying that, I do have a platinum Cartier cloche which is as heavy as I can cope with ...
The green strap is very catchy
but for my skin tone, the rose will look better. Yellow is great too for the fairer skinned.
I like your selection
To my taste, I will had the Santos Dumont squelette whatever the case metal. ...
Hi Patrick
I actually like the Santos Dumont skeleton with the lacquered bezel and in yellow gold. ...
Gorgeous
I didn’t aware about this version. How to not fall in love with it. Thanks for sharing.
I prefer this version
not only because of the lacquered bezel but the hands are more distinctive in the blue making the watch more legible in my opinion.
Well chosen Thomas
I am unable to disagree with your choices as they are my top two too
That is probably the most difficult to get
so I will be most surprised if I am allocated one. I will be very happy with the Cloche or Cintree.
Thanks Greg!
And yes, you are way off topic!! ) But I am glad you are loving my former watch
