The "Automatique" in the model name of this watch indicates that it is equipped with an automatic movement. This is a rarity! Because most vintage Cartier watches were powered by manually wound movements. It uses the high-quality Swiss movement ETA 2670, which promises reliability and precision.
The Vendôme is known for its round case, which sets it apart from collections such as Tank and Santos. The case of this watch is made of 18 carat yellow gold, measures 33mm in diameter and has an elegant stepped bezel.
The white enamel dial features Roman numerals - a hallmark of Cartier's design language. The magical metallic hands appear blue or black depending on the viewing angle.
The typical Cartier crown with blue sapphire cabochon is an unmistakable feature of the Vendôme and perfectly matches the luxurious character of the watch.
The timepiece is also accompanied by the original high-quality Cartier leather strap. The gold clasp bears the Cartier signature and the gold hallmarks.
