Dial Material: Mother-of-pearl

The graceful oval silhouette of Cartier’s celebrated Baignoire takes on exceptional brilliance in this elegant wristwatch. Crafted in 18K yellow gold, the gently curved case is framed by a double row of sparkling white diamonds. Its luminous ivory mother-of-pearl dial bears Cartier’s signature Roman numerals and blued-steel sword-shaped hands, while a sapphire cabochon accents the beaded crown. A sculptural integrated bracelet completes the jewel-like design.

Introduced in 1912, the distinctive oval form that would become the Baignoire exemplifies Cartier’s mastery of refined geometry. Its name is derived from the French word for “bathtub,” a reference to the model’s elongated, softly curved shape. This diamond-set interpretation beautifully unites the maison’s watchmaking heritage with its legendary jewelry craftsmanship.
