Cartier unveils an exceptional ultra-feminine timepiece for women with a gorgeous chain-link bracelet. The chain-link bracelet remains a composed centerpiece, one that plays on classic codes, whilst reinventing today’s attitudes. Measuring 16mm x 17mm, the Maillon de Cartier dial is itself blended into the bracelet architectureÑa series of twisting, arching links which recall the semi-circular shape of pure jewelry designs from Cartier. There will be five versions: two in white gold, two in pink and the ‘entry-level’ in yellow. Both the white and pink gold versions are available with either diamond bezels or a full pavé setting.
It is a precious watch that resides in the creative watchmaking repertoire of the Maison. From the sculptural offset link bracelet to the hexagonal bezel, every element is twisted and contorted to create a vibrant sense of motion that is an intrinsic feature of so many of the famous Parisian Maison’s watches. An ambition to structure the watch, from the form of its links to its faceted case, radicalises the spirit of the watch. Its volume is tangible, angular and dense.
