We have here a ladies Cartier Panthère Vendôme, model 166920. The beige/cream dial has all the trademarks of a classic Cartier: Roman numerals, outer minute, railway-style tracking, blue-steel hands and cabochon winding crown.
The studded, 18ct gold bezel is sits atop the smaller, 24mm, stainless steel case, which houses the Quartz caliber, fully serviced by us and running strongly.
The Vendôme lugs are articulated and we've paired the watch on a light blue leather strap to bring out the hands and crown but with style like this, it can wear anything.
Extra Points
Founded in 1847 in Paris by Louis-François Cartier, Cartier has become one of the best-known brands in the watch world. The attention to detail and eye for design has resulted in timeless pieces that are loved by all.
Born from the jewellery collaboration with Jeanne Toussaint, who later became Cartier's Director of Fine Jewellery, the Panthère has a long history. The panther pattern was first seen on a watch in 1914 and was made from white diamonds and onyx. One of the most famous representations of the Panthère was the three-dimensional brooch made for the Duchess of Windsor in 1948 (and recently sold at auction for over $7 million). It wasn't until 1983 that Cartier launched the Panthère line of quartz watches and was worn by the likes of Keith Richards and Pierce Brosnan.
This watch comes fully serviced by our on-site workshop and with a 12 month, non-waterproof service cover.
What we think
The smaller size of this watch does make it and ideal fit for ladies or young adults. The Panthère is a watch that is perfect for the first time buyer and is a must have in any watch (and jewellery!) collection.
