The combination of black and white and the dramatic contrast this look creates is impossible to ignore as is the hypnotic spell that this latest range from Cartier casts. Hypnose makes the head spin and whirl into a never-ending spiral.
A jewellery watch of mesmerizing proportions, its aesthetic appeal lies in the form and power of illusion inspired in its lines. In one stylish yet disciplined stroke, Cartier has created a major new watchmaking classic in this timepiece.
The elegance of its oval form, edged with diamonds, is feminine, subtle and definitively Cartier with an essential brilliance. Graphic ellipses of pure, jewel-like white are accentuated by the luminosity of pavé-set diamonds to create a watch that falls halfway between sophisticated evening attire and exquisite day wear.
Movement, perspective, optical illusions are encapsulated by the virtuosity of savoir-faire in the black lacquer filling the hollows together with the diamonds illuminating the hours from one oval form to the next. The watch featured here is the large model 18-carat white gold, bezel, dial and bracelet set with brilliant-cut diamonds, black lacquer and quartz movement that highlights Cartier’s refined design skill set.
