Cartier is a renowned French luxury brand, established in 1847 by Louis-François Cartier. Known for its exceptional jewelry, watches, fragrances, and other luxury goods, Cartier has earned a reputation for timeless elegance, craftsmanship, and innovation. The brand is often referred to as the "jeweler of kings and the king of jewelers," due to its rich history of serving royalty, celebrities, and affluent clientele.
Cartier's venture into watchmaking began in the early 20th century, when Louis Cartier, the founder's grandson, designed a wristwatch for his friend, the Brazilian aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont. This watch, known as the Santos, marked the beginning of Cartier's illustrious journey in the world of horology. The Santos, with its distinctive square case and exposed screws, became an instant classic and is still produced today.
Over the years, Cartier has introduced numerous iconic watch collections, including the Tank, Ballon Bleu, Pasha, and Drive de Cartier. These timepieces are known for their elegant designs, distinctive shapes, and the use of precious metals and gemstones. Cartier's watches cater to both men and women, offering a wide range of styles and complications, from simple time-only pieces to more complex models with chronographs, moon phases, and perpetual calendars.
Cartier's watchmaking division, Manufacture Cartier, is based in Switzerland, where the brand's timepieces are designed, developed, and assembled in-house, ensuring the highest standards of Swiss watchmaking. In recent years, Cartier has also focused on developing its own mechanical movements, further solidifying its position in the world of haute horology.
