Cartier was founded in Paris in 1847 by Louis-Francois Cartier, the son of a powder horn maker. Cartier’s jewelry was characterized by a light, airy touch in contrast to the overly formal and overwrought ornaments of the period.
Today, as one of the oldest jewelers in the world, Cartier enjoys a reputation for selling only the finest quality jewelry and accessories. Nowhere is this philosophy more evident than with Cartier’s highly diverse line of wristwatches, many of which are among the most recognizable designs on the planet. From the Tank or Pasha models to the finest bejeweled creations for women, there is literally a Cartier watch for everyone, at almost every price point.
