Clé de Cartier: Cartier's Newest Timepiece Collection Available This April 2015

A wise friend once said, "You can never go wrong with Cartier."
From the first Santos made in 1904, to Calibre de Cartier, the Tank—or more recently, the Ballon Bleu, Cartier has designed so many memorable shapes for its timepieces collection.

This 2015, witness as Cartier reveals a new addition on its fine-dress jewellery and elegance with great robustness and durability. WATCH!

The new Clé de Cartier collection—where clé in French means key—was just presented at the recent Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie of Geneva, makes no exception introducing distinctive elements: a curved profile that fits snugly to the wrist, a gently rounded bezel, tapered horns and a jewel-like key-like crown which gives the name and signature look to the new timepieces.

The watch is powered by the 1847 MC, the year the Maison was founder, referring to the automatic movement with a 42-hour power reserve that was developed, fabricated and assembled in-house with efficiency in mind. Thanks to a specially conceived lever system, the dual direction winding mechanism is endowed with great robustness and durability.

A specially developed barrel contributes to the chronometric stability of the movement. With this new crown, adorned with a blue sapphire, the act of adjusting the time and date recalls the turning of a key to wind up a clock.

The Clé de Cartier collection includes models for men and for women. The 40 mm case of the model for men is available in pink gold or white gold matched to an alligator leather strap or a bracelet.

All-new Calibre de Cartier Diver Watch Collection

If you are on the look for fine-dress jewellery but rugged diving timepieces, then think Cartier.

Unveiled on this year's Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie (SIHH) fair in Geneva,  the all-new Calibre de Cartier Diver Collection was the surprise of the show—not least because it brings a performance-level sports watch into a maison previously renowned for its stylishly effortless, dressy elegance.

In 2010, the French house first showed an interest in the outdoors, with the launch of its new Cartier de Calibre, their first dedicated 'sports' watch. It had a more rugged design, was water resistant and featured an automatic winding system.

This new Diver timepiece adds some serious heft to the Calibre de Cartier collection. Waterproof to 300 metres (and tested to conform to the industry's IS0 6425 standard for water resistance), the in-house 1904 MC movement is contained within an 11mm deep case, making the timepiece one of the slimmest diver's watches on the market.

Not to mention, the hands, indexes and dive time indicator are all applied with a Superluminova coating, as is the roman numeral XII, ensuring that even when fully submerged you'll never forget you're voyaging beneath the waves wearing a Cartier.

With super luminous (glow-in-the-dark coating) applied to the dive-time indicator, the hour and minute hands, the preselects on device and the small seconds counter, the Calibre de Cartier display has been specially designed to be read in tricky conditions.

Available in steel and pink gold, both come on a rubber strap, with the addition of a steel bracelet version.
