The case of the Baignoire Ref. WJBA0026 is meticulously crafted from 18K white gold (750/1000), delivering a luminous, refined finish that elevates the watch’s sculptural form. The polished surface reflects light beautifully, emphasizing the purity of the oval silhouette. White gold lends a contemporary edge while preserving the timeless prestige associated with Cartier’s use of precious metals.

This movement allows the wearer to enjoy flawless timekeeping without the need for frequent winding or adjustment. By pairing advanced quartz technology with fine materials, Cartier ensures that elegance and practicality coexist effortlessly within this refined timepiece.
The dial of the Baignoire Ref. WJBA0026 features a softly silvered finish, creating a subtle yet radiant canvas that enhances legibility and elegance. The iconic blued-steel sword-shaped hands glide smoothly across the dial, offering a striking contrast that is instantly recognizable as Cartier. Every element is precisely positioned to maintain visual harmony and timeless appeal.
Covering the dial is a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal, selected to preserve clarity and brilliance over time. This premium crystal protects the refined dial while maintaining a flawless viewing experience. The inclusion of sapphire crystal reflects Cartier’s commitment to durability, ensuring that the beauty of the CRWJBA0026 remains intact through years of wear.
