While Cartier is known primarily for its jewellery, it also has a storied history in watchmaking. The design and style of its creation are extremely bald and innovative, always ahead compared to the period they were manufactured. The diversity of the case explored by the Parisian brand is extremely vast but among the most classical and elegant of all, for sure the Vendome stands for its beauty.  Its luxurious and very elegant appearance sometimes has also been embellished thanks to the use of precious stones and the lot here offered is definitely a lavish specimen of Vendome by Cartier. This limited edition estimed to less then 100 pieces presents a circular case manufactured is 18k white gold with 106 brilliant-cut diamonds while the elegant links openworked bracelet has a gorgeous decoration made with diamonds and a central rings each with 4 red ruby with 18k white gold deployant clasp signed. The circular cream dial has Roman numerals with secret signature at VII o’clock, outer minutes track and blued steel epée hands. The watch further comes with original warranty and service.
