Collection Privee

Hi,

The Collection Privee is Cartier's high end group of watches containing hand wound movements.  The watches are inspired by models from Cartier's past.  Watches such as the Tank, Tortue, Tonneau, Rotonde, Chinois (to name a few) have been released as part of the Collection Privee.  There are time only watches such as the Tank Chinois and and the Louis Cartier Tank, and models with complications such as Tortue chronographs, power reserves/small seconds/grand date, minute repeater, perpetual calendar, or dual time function watches  and jump hour style watches available in the Tank a Vis and Tank XL. 

The Privee watches generally use base movements from the likes of JLC and Piaget, but they also make a few of their own movements such as those found in the Tank a Vis and Tank XL calendar/jump hour style watch and possibly their dual time zone versions. 

Best regards,

Dino
