The Baignoire stands out as an iconic timepiece of the early era of watchmaking, having made its debut in 1912. Its distinctive design resembles a stretched oval with a bathtub-like contour. It remains highly sought after by enthusiasts of Cartier watches. The Mini Baignoire collection, which emerged in 2001, features a diminutive yet distinctive design. Despite its petite size, the timepiece boasts a remarkable 14 plus carats of diamonds, including 74 pave-set diamonds adorning the case and 86 diamonds embellishing the bracelet. Additionally, the watch is equipped with a unique bracelet design, composed of two intertwined single loops that converge at the clasp. The current lot, in excellent condition is a sight to behold and would make a splendid addition to any collection of fine watches or jewelry.
