True to form
The guilloche dial subtly setting out the hour lines and the solid blued hands are both great features in my book that pay homage to the original design. I also like the double spinel/sapphire - a nice Easter egg for the owner only. I am personally less attracted to the new, partly integrated chain design - I take that it improves the structural stability but there is something wonderfully anachronistic about the original design and the old crown had more or a middle eastern identity.
The 2020 'Pasha de Cartier'.
Cartier announced the new Pasha de Cartier. The time only models have the Manufacture 1847MC caliber and the case sizes are 41mm with a date function and a 35mm model without the date window. All Pasha models will be delivered with a bracelet and a leathe...
While I like the fact that the dial appears to have been cleaned up compared to the last iteration,
I have to agree that the cockeyed date at 4:00 is just awful. Never was one of my favorites from Cartier, though.
I do not believe that this is Cartier's best design move.
Definitely underwhelming to me.
I think the Pasha is a bit of a feminine looking watch and looks a bit dated. Pardon the pun.
I was always torn in it and almost bought one years ago but today .......hmmmm...... I like the overall dial design except for the date location but the rest just doesn't work for me anymore.
That cap though::
The cap and winding crown are pretty to look at but seem proportionally large for the timepiece.
i generally like the Pasha
when it’s not overtly gauche. I have had several versions on the past, but a few definitely were quite “in your face”. I’d like to see this one on the metal, although I do think the solid hands (sans lume) is a misstep.

Like it very much! A great re-start for Cartier.
To me it seems to be a successful redesign of one of the rather rare independent case designs in horology.
