Overview

Description

Founded by Louis‑François Cartier in 1847, the Maison translated high jewellery flair into wristwatches for aviator Alberto Santos‑Dumont (1904) and the modernist Tank (1917). Richemont‑owned since 2012, Cartier’s lineup—from Santos‑Dumont to 2024’s Reflection de Cartier bangle—pairs design purity with in‑house calibres, keeping it one of the world’s most‑searched luxury marques.
