Cartier
A dazzling creation from CARTIER’s legendary Panthère collection, this extraordinary, covered watch captures the Maison’s unrivaled artistry in both high jewelry and horology. Fashioned in 18K yellow gold, the bracelet takes the form of a dynamic panther, its sinuous body draped gracefully across the wrist. The feline’s form is brought to life through an opulent pavé of vivid yellow and white diamonds, punctuated by striking onyx striping and vivid emerald eyes that exude Cartier’s signature intensity.
The concealed watch dial, revealed beneath the panther’s poised figure, underscores Cartier’s long tradition of crafting jeweled timepieces that blend utility with pure artistry—embodying both luxury and substance.
The Panthère motif first emerged at Cartier in the early 20th century and became an enduring symbol of feminine power, sensuality, and grace. Jeanne Toussaint, Cartier’s legendary creative director, famously championed the panther design, elevating it into one of the Maison’s most iconic and collectible signatures. Today, vintage examples of Cartier’s jeweled panther watches are regarded as rare treasures, highly sought after by connoisseurs and collectors alike for their rarity, exceptional craftsmanship, and symbolic allure.
