ABOUT THIS WATCH

• The Cartier Baignoire was introduced in 1957, although its design draws inspiration from a creation conceived by Louis Cartier in 1912 when he gifted a piece unique to the Russian Grand Duchess Pavlovna
• The Baignoire’s smooth oval shape has stood the test of time through small adaptations over the last century
• The stretched Allongée line was first brought to life in the '60s thanks to the designers at Cartier's London workshop who augmented the watch's original form
• This more contemporary reference is luxuriously presented in white gold and adorned with factory-set diamonds on the bezel
• The slim textured Cartier strap provides some balance and complements the overall character of the watch
• The Baignoire’s overlooked heritage offers collectors an appealing alternative to more commonly seen models from the French maison
