Cartier Must de Cartier 21 Silver Dial Quartz Vintage Women's Watch | Authentic Cartier Vintage Timepiece | Bixley Shop

A rare opportunity to own a classic vintage Cartier Watch. This is Must de Cartier from the 1970s. 
We authenticated this based on the serial number as an authentic Cartier on the CartierCare website. Originally the numbers and parts of the band were gold plated, but the plating has faded. Based on our research, the plating could be restored - Cartier does that and will clean refurbish the watch. Currently the watch isn't working, undoubtedly it needs a new battery, it is best to do this at Cartier and would be part of the refurbishment. It's also a great excuse to go into a Cartier store and browse the beautiful merchandise.

According to the Coveted website: "The Must de Cartier collection, launched in 1973, marked Cartier's strategy change toward affordable luxury during economic downturns and the Quartz Crisis. Designed to appeal to a wider audience, it combined refined craftsmanship with affordable pricing while maintaining Cartier's design philosophy...By combining affordability, elegance, and iconic design, the Must de Cartier collection reinvigorated the company and solidified its horological supremacy."
