Love my Cartier Roadster
I know it is no horological masterpiece. I know many regard these as jewelry instead of timepieces. Yet, even to my very own surprise, this has been one of two watches that I've flipped and kept regretting doing so (the other one being my polar Explorer II). After thinning the herd a little bit, I have re-aquired a Cartier Roadster and I love it.
P.S. A polar exp2 with 3186 movement is on its way too... Incoming tomorrow via DavidSW. Order re-established. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I owned a roadster (TT) and loved it. But After a few years it started needing service frequently. Hopefully the newer ones are more reliable.
Congrats on a great watch. |

The Roadster is a modern classic.

I think so too. The fact that you can exchange straps with such ease widens the options significantly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Love this watch, esp the chrono, really great design but probably too big for me nowadays.

Nice collection of straps as well. I have only three for my Roadster. How comfortable is the rubber one?

I used to own the chronograph version and loved it. I hastily sold it (for way too little) and regret it to this day. Wear it and enjoy! It's a beauty.
