Not worth it at full retail price for quartz models. The gold tones are attractive and hand-wound movement appreciated, but steep pricing, especially for quartz at $11,000+, makes vintage market a better option.
Pros
- Hand-wound movement on most models (adds mechanical appeal)
- Luxurious gold materials (rose gold and white gold options)
- Genuine alligator skin straps
- Sapphire crystal cabochon on crown (signature of fine Cartier timepiece)
- Blued hands matching sapphire detail
- Available in multiple sizes
- Gold adds warmth not found in stainless steel
Cons
- Very steep price point starting at $9,550
- Hand-wound movement requires extra attention and regular winding
- Quartz movement on entry-level small and large models unjustifiably priced at $11,000+
- No seconds hand on any model including extra large
- No date window on any model
- Expensive for what you get compared to vintage alternatives
