Description
Crafted to resemble a tortoise (hence its French namesake), the Tortue marked Cartier’s third watch case design, predating even the iconic Tank. Louis Cartier, amidst the unveiling of the Santos-Dumont in 1904 and the Tonneau in 1906, conceived the Tortue in 1912. It remains a timeless design, with this example combining white gold construction with a diamond-set bezel. Includes box.
