Quick TakeThis Cartier Indomptables de Cartier isn't just a watch, it's a wearable menagerie of exquisite craftsmanship. The fierce beauty of the tiger and panther, rendered in gold, diamonds, and vibrant gemstones, transforms timekeeping into a captivating spectacle. It's a testament to Cartier’s legacy, where the wild spirit of nature meets the meticulous precision of horology.

DescriptionThe Indomptables de Cartier Tiger Motif Watch (Ref. HPI01453) is a symphony of precious materials and meticulous craftsmanship. Its 22.2 mm case, meticulously shaped from 18K yellow gold, is a testament to both luxury and durability. This radiant foundation is further embellished with 128 brilliant-cut diamonds, accumulating a total weight of 1.08 carats. The dial, also fashioned from 18K yellow gold, serves as a captivating canvas for 160 diamonds (0.37 carat) and a solitary black spinel. It provides a luxurious backdrop for the gold-finish steel sword-shaped hands, which are driven by a precise quartz movement, ensuring accurate timekeeping. The watch is completed with an 18K yellow gold strap, lavishly adorned with 146 brilliant-cut diamonds (5.24 carats), 47 black spinels, and 13 yellow sapphires (0.84 carat), creating a seamless extension of the watch's opulent design.

However, the true pièce de résistance lies in the intricate animal motifs that grace the watch's design. A captivating panther head, also rendered in 18K yellow gold, is seamlessly integrated into the case and set with 275 brilliant-cut diamonds (1.32 carats). Accents of black lacquer on the spots and nose create a striking contrast, further enhancing the panther's lifelike presence. Opposite this feline figure, a majestic tiger head, similarly crafted in 18K yellow gold, commands attention. This awe-inspiring motif features 174 yellow sapphires (1.48 carats) and 23 orange spessartite garnets, creating a vibrant tapestry of color. The tiger's eyes, fashioned from pear-shaped emeralds totaling 0.28 carats, add a touch of verdant intensity, completing the lifelike portrayal. The watch boasts a thickness of 7.55 mm and is water-resistant up to 3 bar.
