A Tribute to Cartier’s Design Heritage
Cartier has long been known as the pioneer of bold and artistic case shapes, and the Baignoire remains one of the Maison’s most distinctive achievements. The elongated case reflects the original concept of transforming an oval “bath tub” silhouette into a poetic and luxurious form.

A Hand-Wound Mechanical Heart
Inside the Baignoire beats the hand-wound mechanical movement, Caliber 1917 MC, strengthening its bond with traditional Swiss watchmaking. The manual winding ritual adds a personal connection between the wearer and their timepiece.
