Cartier Gives You the Moon

April 11, 2017

The Drive de Cartier collection, created in 2016, is designed for the man who flaunts an independent mind and a keen sense for fashion. Looking effortlessly stylish as he saunters through life, whether dressed down in casual chic or spruced up in black tie, the Drive de Cartier man is dapper on every occasion.

And his watch boasts just as many sides to its personality. All models in this collection feature exquisite watchmaking movements. The Drive de Cartier hours, minutes and seconds watch, the second time zone model and the flying tourbillon model have now been joined by a new moon phase model.

The newest face in the collection has the same highly personal codes and exude the Drive de Cartier man’s love of authenticity, free spirit and imagination.

This watch is fitted with the new manufacture movement 1904-LU MC. A distinctive moon phase complication displayed at 6 o’clock tracks the cycle of new moons, half-moons and full moons. This extraordinarily precise complication is known as an astronomic moon phase, needs to be corrected by one day every 125 years.

The Drive de Cartier Moon Phases watch stays true to the signature aesthetic of the Drive de Cartier collection: wearability. With a convex curved glass case and uncluttered white guilloché dial, it is available in rose gold or steel. This timepiece lends an unaffected touch of sophistication to everyday mechanics.
