At 30 mm in length and 24 mm in width, the Tortue's distinctive curved case is rendered in 18k pink gold with a slim 7.3 mm profile. The octagonal crown is set with a faceted sapphire, while the silvered guilloché dial features a sunray effect complemented by sword-shaped hands in blued steel.
Powering the watch is Cartier's own caliber 8970 MC, a Manufacture mechanical movement with manual winding that reflects the maison's commitment to in-house craft. The case offers water resistance to 3 bar (approximately 30 metres).
The watch is worn on a brown alligator skin strap secured by an ardillon buckle in 18k pink gold, completing an elegantly cohesive aesthetic from case to clasp.
