Hey guys! I am looking for a companion to my GMT master II ceramic rolex watch and I think I found it! Its the new Calibre de Cartier! I have only seen pictures of it but a new one arrives in two weeks! What do you guys think about it?

Tripod · 16 April 2010, 11:48 AM

Terrific looking watch. What is the retail price?

javierati · 16 April 2010, 12:19 PM

Retail price - $6,500. It is comparable to the GMT II c price.

datejust1 · 16 April 2010, 12:21 PM

Hey Boricua! Reloj Precioso!! Disfruralo!!

javierati · 16 April 2010, 12:39 PM

Hey! We Puerto Ricans are everywhere!! hahaha

I am still undecided. I am comparing the Roadster GMT extra large, vs this new calibre model. I have to wait until it arrives at the store. Can't wait.
The only thing that has me thinking about this watch is the location of the saphire crystal with respect to the vessel. I looks like it is sunken into the watch. The bezel comes out a bit, then goes down into the watch in a 25 degree angle before it meets the saphire crystal. Sort of like creating a vase. I have to see it in person to see how it looks. Other than that this watch is amazing.

dandan · 17 April 2010, 12:27 AM

I think I like it but would like to see it in the flesh.

eagle_lex · 17 April 2010, 01:38 AM

i think its my fav Cartier for sure! looks great!

Sr. Panza · 17 April 2010, 08:09 AM

I really like its simplistic appearance. It looks very elegant. I just picked up a Roadster that I can't stop looking at. : - )

hmm...interesting...like a tiny shot glass on your wrist?

HL65 · 17 April 2010, 11:10 AM

Nice looking!

boa2 · 18 April 2010, 12:19 PM

I've had it on my wrist, and it's a fantastic watch. Beautifully finished, in-house movement, nice size & heft...a real winner!

javierati · 19 April 2010, 11:08 AM

I am still undecided. Cartier Roadmaster GMT Xlarge vs Calibre de cartier.....

Bullyterrier · 20 April 2010, 08:07 PM

I like that a lot. Dressy yet has a sporty look, Classic but modern. Nice

JJ Irani · 20 April 2010, 08:34 PM

That watch certainly makes one helluva bold statement!!

javierati · 7 May 2010, 01:44 AM

It has arrived!! I just tried it on and I think this one is a winner!! I will post photos when I have it on this afternoon. :D:D

dandan · 7 May 2010, 06:36 AM

Would love to see those pics buddy!

javierati · 7 May 2010, 03:17 PM

Love it!!!! It is a great watch. The size is perfect. Very light due to the saphire crystal in the back. very thin. i think it goes great with my gmt master iic.

sakuraba · 7 May 2010, 03:22 PM

I've always thought Cartiers to be very elegant.

bcacncnc · 8 May 2010, 02:37 PM

Looks great. Shape reminds me of a PAM Luminor. I have a feeling this one could become a bit of a hit.

kcmo · 14 May 2010, 07:28 AM

Lovely! Congrats!

dandan · 14 May 2010, 07:44 AM

Saw one in London this weekend. Its a great looking watch

Que lo disfrutes brother tambien aqui otro Boricua!!

Tripod · 14 May 2010, 10:28 AM

Congrats. Looks beautiful. How bout a wrist shot when you get a chance?

lorsban · 14 May 2010, 11:53 AM

Interesting...my wife was just telling me about this watch. Cartier always seems to be able to mix bold and dressy/elegant very well.

Quattro Libre · 20 May 2010, 07:40 AM

I'm a little late to this party but I think it's a stunning watch...

venom43 · 6 December 2010, 09:27 PM

for sure my next watch....

I've always wanted a cartier, just never wanted to pull the trigger.

trickyric · 27 December 2010, 10:58 PM

I am very late to this party.
I saw this watch on the back of a magazine and fell in love with it!.
I went to the store to see it first hand and love it even more.
I was wondering if anyone on this forum knows where the best deal on one of these can be made, I have found to reputable jewelers that will sell it for $5500 but I know there has to be a better deal out there......

Paul7039 · 28 December 2010, 02:07 PM

Great watch! I just tried one on at a local AD -- beautiful on the wrist. I really like the idea that they manufactured the movement. Enjoy it.

Mockingbird · 28 December 2010, 02:47 PM

Cartier's new in-house movements are quite nice. They're a rising industry juggernaut.
