Delicate in form yet rich in detail, the Cartier Baignoire Mini Watch Ref. HPI01767 is a radiant expression of the Maison’s savoir-faire in high jewelry watchmaking. Sculpted in white gold and adorned with a vibrant selection of diamonds and colored gemstones, this elegant mini model reimagines a historic silhouette with contemporary refinement. Designed for those who seek beauty in precision and brilliance in design, it is a true collector’s piece in miniature scale.
The watch features a gracefully curved 24.8 x 17.1 mm case, crafted in 750/1000 white gold, with a case thickness of 8.13 mm. Its soft, elliptical profile stays true to the original Baignoire aesthetic, a design first introduced in the early 20th century and continually reinvented through Cartier’s artistic lens. Surrounding the case is a magnificent setting of 36 brilliant-cut diamonds, totaling 2.27 carats, interspersed with emeralds, blue tourmalines, and sapphires, creating a composition full of color and light. The watch is also water-resistant up to 3 bar (30 meters), balancing ornamental charm with everyday durability.
A study in miniature jewelry artistry, the white gold dial is entirely paved with 130 brilliant-cut diamonds totaling 0.71 carats, offering a refined and textured sparkle. At the center lies a single blue tourmaline, subtly contrasting the surrounding brilliance and drawing the eye inward. Polished grey steel sword-shaped hands glide over the dial with classic Cartier elegance, allowing time to be read at a glance without distracting from the jewel-like composition. Every detail is meticulously executed, underscoring Cartier’s ability to create watches that are both functional and ornamental.
Inside, the watch is powered by a high-precision quartz movement, chosen for its reliability and discreet presence. Its slim, compact nature allows the timepiece to remain lightweight and elegant, while offering ease of use and consistent performance. In a watch designed for visual artistry, this movement quietly supports the experience without complication.
The watch is paired with a fully gem-set white gold bracelet, echoing the design of the case in both shape and embellishment. Adorned with a curated mix of diamonds, sapphires, emeralds, and blue tourmalines, the bracelet completes the composition with harmony and balance. Its fluid construction ensures comfort on the wrist, while its brilliance transforms the piece into a full high jewelry statement, suitable for formal occasions and meaningful moments alike.
The Baignoire collection is one of Cartier’s longest-standing icons, originally designed to explore femininity through form and simplicity. The Ref. HPI01767 advances that legacy into the realm of haute joaillerie, combining tradition with rare materials and expressive gem-setting. It belongs among the Maison’s most elevated creations, alongside the Métiers d’Art and High Jewelry collections, where every watch is a piece of wearable sculpture.
