What's in the Box?!?!?!🎁
Ok I caved in - even I couldn't wait for the proper short strap to arrive. Here she is, Cartier Ronde 1800.1 in 32 mm. Peach colour dial and blue steel hands with the date at 3.
It has the deployment buckle which I love and the contrast stitching on the strap. J'adore!
This is a vintage Cartier that I saw one sleepless night. Followed by more sleepless nights of searching and research. Finally found a reputable seller with the watch in great condition and just serviced.
Oddly enough, I started with a steel Cartier Tank. And for some reason I gravitate to their Vintage watches these days. I mean I'd like a brand new Daytona and make my own scratches on it and give it character. And for some reason, for Cartier I want it to already have character. I may have to process these thoughts and get back to you all on this.
Now we know what is in the box😄 I thoroughly enjoyed the gifs and the comments! Thanks for that guys and hope this did not disappoint 😉
A simple watch lover, with a passion to learn more, enjoy and appreciate different complications. And where the watch I wear reflects my mood 😉
This is an absolute cracker of a watch - Sheer class - and sometimes a great vintage watch can have certain features that dont really tick the boxes but we still acquire them because the pros outweigh the cons - but in this case there literally isnt anything that can be a negative - Everything from the unblemished dial to the classic clasp and condition of strap is A grade - And you rock it perfectly - congrats on a great pick
Wowzers gorgeous congratulations!!!! I'm so glad you couldn't wait! Apologies for being one of a long list of Crunchers pushing for a look inside that red 📦

Thanks! There were more pros for sure. The condition convinced me and thanks for the counsel on this one, much appreciated! 🙏

Thank you😊 A wise Cruncher told me a true watchaholic wouldn't have patience to wait and he was right 😄 and I really appreciate the excitement from you, it adds to the happiness this watch brings. 😉
Another gorgeous creation from Cartier, one of my favorite brands. Congratlations !!
That is a fine, fine watch. Robust yet elegant. Do think I have a slight preference for the Baignoire - but hey, if you have both you don’t have to choose :) Enjoy wearing this piece of French history.

Thanks, I will ✨️ Have to agree the Baignoire still holds the top spot for me and this one a very close second. 😀
I was looking forward to see your comment. It did not disappoint😄👍

And I am trying to add that gif of Paul Rudd happily running down the front yard but I can't 🤣🤣🤣🤣 but you get the drift 😆
An absolute stunner that I think suits you down to the ground! 😍
I'm impressed you managed to resist the box at all!

Thanks 😊
Funny how the last picture puts the size more into perspective…watch looks great!
Thanks!😊
Daaang Gurl! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I dig the dial and the shiny gold in the soft round case is abstractly beautiful. If this what you see in your dreams, your nightmares must be horrifying 🤣
AHahaha.. indeed they are 🤣
Beautiful!!
And the watch is nice too 😉
Aww thanks 😁
Interesting that four is IIII rather than IV, but fits the dial very well anyways 👌
It's a Cartier thing the IIII - some want to se the IV but I think that makes it unique 😁
Wow, what a stunning piece, congratulations!
Thank you!
Beautiful, unusual and elegant 👏🏻
Thanks 😊
Wow! What a beautiful Cartier! Someone loved and took care of this timepiece. Congratulations Alex and wear it in good health!
Yes she was treasured - Thanks a lot! Will do 😁
Not one you see very often, a real classy piece, enjoy!
It has serious wrist presence, very nice 👌
Beautiful watch and great pick up. What year is it from? It exudes vintage goodness. I love Cartier's design language and I love their vintage stuff even more. Congrats!
