Tanks, Santos, Pantheres, Tonneaus, even Tortues (plus each of their myriad variations) are all either overtly or subtly four-sided. There were obscure early pieces that were circular, but these were all but forgotten until the 70s when Cartier revived them as Vendômes, named after the new Parisian boutique at Place Vendôme (second store to complement its historical flagship at 13 Rue de la Paix). Vendômes are slim and sleek, versus the similarly round Colisees which are more sculptural with thick bezels. Vendômes are some of the most understated Cartiers and here we have a seldom-seen version. Most Vendômes have white\/champagne dials and full Roman numerals. Black dials, when they show up, tend to have no indices, or full silver Romans. This one is black with gilt details, large Romans only in the cardinal positions, and diamond-shaped markers elsewhere. Discreet as originally intended, but with rich details to enchant each time you glance at your wrist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCONDITION:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e9.5\/10 with barely any signs of wear. Crystal, dial and cabochon are clean, with microscopic honest age spots on the hands and barely visible spidering. Spidering is appreciated as characterful patina, indicating original vs replaced dials. Caseback engravings deep and clear. Original Cartier strap is used but in perfectly usable condition with plenty of life remaining. Original deployant is excellent. Movement in excellent health, and quartz-accurate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eDIMENSIONS:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e30mm width excl. crown\u003cbr\u003e36.6mm length incl. lugs\u003cbr\u003e5.1mm thick\u003cbr\u003e16mm lug width with custom T-bar cutouts\u003cbr\u003eVisual dial width ~25.5mm\u003cbr\u003eWrist in photos is 15.8cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCRYSTAL:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eSapphire\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCASE:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e925 sterling silver, 20 micron gold-plating\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eWATER RESISTANCE:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eAssumed none, as per vintage watches\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eSTRAP:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eUsed original Cartier strap with Cartier deployant\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCALIBRE:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eCartier Cal. 90, 2-hander quartz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eCOMES WITH:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eWatch, strap and deployant\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTERMS OF SALE:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003ePlease see our stories Highlight entitled “Terms” on our Instagram profile.
