First conceived in 1912, the Baignoire takes its name from the French word for bathtub, a nod to the distinctive oval case shape that has defined the collection for over a century. This 2024 reference measures 25mm and is crafted in 18K white gold, with a fixed diamond-set bezel that draws the eye around the oval form.
The silver-tone dial is rendered in analog style, with Roman numeral hour markers and blue hands that echo Cartier's longstanding design codes. A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal protects the dial, while a quartz movement provides reliable, low-maintenance timekeeping. The watch fastens via a buckled strap, keeping the overall composition understated and refined.
Offered as a complete set with its original box and papers, this Baignoire represents the 2024 production of one of Cartier's most recognized feminine timepieces, blending the house's jewelry-making tradition with Swiss Made watchmaking.
