Cartier Baignoire de Cartier WJBA0048 Watch

Designed in 1912, the watch later named Baignoire showcases Cartier’s mastery of form. Its refined elliptical silhouette, drawn in a single continuous line, embodies the Maison’s signature balance of purity and timeless elegance. Cartier Manufacture is one of the few watchmaking houses capable of designing, producing, and maintaining every aspect of its timepieces and movements—from simple calibres to complex complications—across both heritage and contemporary collections. This Baignoire, small model, features a quartz movement. Its 31.4 × 23.1?mm, 6.9?mm-thick case is crafted in 18k yellow gold and set with 227 brilliant-cut diamonds (total 2.25?carats). The beaded crown is set with a 0.08?ct brilliant-cut diamond. The mother-of-pearl dial features gold-finish steel sword-shaped hands beneath sapphire crystal. It is paired with a semi-matte beige alligator leather strap and 18k yellow gold ardillon buckle. Water-resistant to 3?bar (approximately 30?metres), it comes with a two-year international warranty, extendable to eight years via online registration.
