Cartier Yellow Gold Bathtub - ref. 3208 - c. 2010
Dive back into the legend
Description
How can one speak of Cartier without thinking of the Baignoire model? Elegance, sensuality, and delicacy personified, the Cartier Baignoire embodies the essence of the Cartier woman and her identity. It also illustrates the Maison's technical prowess in creating a mechanism that integrates seamlessly into an oval case.
A rounded, all-gold case, a white dial, black hour markers, and blued hands: all the hallmarks of the Cartier Baignoire are present. However, these hallmarks are modernized here with a few new details. The case angles are slightly more pronounced, the hour markers more prominent. The iridescent dial has more presence than the older, "simply" white dials. Finally, the yellow gold highlights the model. A limited-edition version of an iconic design whose characteristics have been revisited.
How to wear it?
In any situation, it will undoubtedly add a touch of elegance to your outfit. A sleek watch with clean lines that would be best worn with formal attire. However, it remains a perfect everyday watch that can be slipped under a shirt or jacket cuff, or proudly displayed on a bare wrist.
Why did Françoise choose her?
Because the Baignoire is an iconic watch shape from the House of Cartier. A watch worn by many women over the years: women with a confident style, women of character, women who are remembered.
Françoise often favours vintage watches, but she also knows how to be won over by a more recent model like this one.
History
From Catherine Deneuve to Jeanne Moreau and Romy Schneider, the Cartier Bathtub never ceases to charm.
Although Louis Cartier had already introduced a design for an elongated watch in the early 1900s, the iconic model we know today was born in 1958 in Cartier's Parisian workshops. A watch with feminine and sensual lines, an innovative and creative style. A few years later, the Baignoire elongée (Elongated Bath) appeared in the London studios.
While the gold gadrooned case has retained its rounded design, it has nonetheless undergone some variations over the years, as has the dial, sometimes adorned with Roman numerals, sometimes with Arabic numerals. An inherently elegant watch that transcends time without losing its allure.
