The new design of the Cartier Baignoire watch showcases a reversed balance through a fresh proportion. This year, the Baignoire watch is reintroduced with a miniature case, an enlarged rounded bracelet that seamlessly merges with the golden dial. The purity of lines, precision of shapes, and meticulous attention to proportion all harmoniously come together, transforming the watch into a piece of jewelry.
“Cartier has been a part of my family and myself for a long time, symbolizing love and special occasions. For my eighteenth birthday, my mother even gifted me a Cartier Baignoire watch. The elegance and finesse of the sapphire, the understated dial, and the timeless design greatly attract me to this creation,” said Lou Doillon.
Cartier was a jeweler before it was a watchmaker, often blurring the boundaries between these two fundamental crafts to combine the best of both. This combination has resulted in the sleek and refined design of the mini Baignoire. The combination of a bracelet with clean lines and a miniature dial without excessive embellishments aesthetically references Cartier’s heritage and adds a sublime touch, transforming the mini Baignoire into a true piece of jewelry.
