I would wear that watch just for the looks but it doesn't appear to be a genuine Cartier timepiece to my (albeit untrained) eye.

Ask your uncle where he bought it. I suspect he got it whilst he was on holiday abroad :smile:


ahh really? how can you tell?

yeah sure will do :smile: does it mean it's worthless?

Has no-one noticed yet that it's an automatic? You can see the rotor through the display caseback.
This means that it doesn't use batteries. It is powered by being moved around (when you wear it on your wrist), or it can also be wound by turning the crown. If neither of these get it going again, take it to a watch specialist for a service.
The specialist can also tell you if it is genuine or not.

ahh right I see, would any jeweller suffice for being a specialist, i.e. an employer at H Samuels/Ernest Jones?

Getting a watch fixed by Cartier itself, will be expensive, I mean very. But tbh you don't want it any other way, go to Cartier they will look after it and get it sorted. They should also clean and polish the watch for no extra cost.

hey guys, recently my uncle gave me his watch just by means of taking it off his wrist and giving it to me, and I am wondering what the name and model of the watch is since the battery appears to have been used up. It's make is stated Cartier, any help would really be appreciated!

thanks :biggrin:


If it's genuine then It's a very nice watch! The stone on the crown will be a saphire, and the leather will either be croc or lizard. But It doesn't look like one of Cartiers classic models, so If you hang on to it, I don't think its value will increase or anything. But It's still a nice watch and deffinately worth keeping. Take it into Cartier and ask about it.

thanks! the stone on the crown looks sapphire and the leather seems croc/lizard too. next week when I'm down in london, I'll take it down to the cartier store in bond street and ask them about it :smile: would they be able to tell me if it's genuine, how much it's worth and the model name?
