Since its creation in 1985, the Cartier Pasha de Cartier watches have become heritage pieces. Made entirely from yellow gold, the original models allowed the collection to garner a cult following over the years, especially because of their stunning, extroverted design.
The collection was initially adopted by men, but women soon began wearing the watches as well, drawn in by this bold aesthetic. Cartier watches are more than just a timepiece, they’re also fashion statements, and the Pasha de Cartier models are no exception.
The watches in the collection come with a new crown. This crown is hidden beneath a cover made from a blue gem and is also set with a blue spinel or sapphire. You can also find a new clasp in the shape of a chain link, which is attached to the crown and contains a secret space inside where you can engrave initials – whether yours or from a loved one.
The in-house movement can be glimpsed through the caseback, adding another touch of elegance to the watch; this 1847 MC automatic calibre is made at the Cartier Manufacture at La Chaux-de-Fonds.
The straps are also interchangeable through the QuickSwitch system, which was developed by Cartier and allows you to change the look of your watch whenever you desire. You can take your Pasha de Cartier piece to the office, the pub or the sports field; it will feel at home no matter where you go, as it’s both a great sports model and a fantastic dress watch.
The Pasha de Cartier collection has many admirers, including public figures and celebrities. Cartier is no stranger to this. From its humble Paris shop origins to becoming the “jeweller of kings and the king of jewellers”, the brand has catered to royalty for many years. Today, Cartier attract the attention of actors, singers and other celebrities who can’t get enough of the brand’s timeless appeal and iconic elegance.
Some of the newest brand ambassadors include actors Rami Malek and Maisie Williams, as well as singer-songwriter Troye Sivan and rapper/singer/dancer Jackson Wang. They represent Cartier’s values, such as innovation, diversity, creativity, open-mindedness and artistic spirit.
Cartier Pasha de Cartier 41mm Watch with Interchangeable Straps
This gents’ watch comes with a 41mm stainless-steel case that ensures the watch will last for a long time. The material, combined with the scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, further add to the durability of the piece and protects the self-winding automatic in-house movement (calibre 1847 MC). The watch is also water-resistant up to 100 metres.
The ‘square inside a circle’ motif is clear, as the brand pays homage to the original models with a square rail-track on the silver dial. Adding to the steel case is a fluted crown cap and crown set with synthetic spinels, silvered flingué dial and blue-steel diamond-shaped hands.
The SmartLink feature allows you to adapt the bracelet to your wrist and provides a truly ergonomic design. And, with the QuickSwitch interchangeable system, you can wear a stainless-steel bracelet or switch to a leather one if you prefer.
