Object description

Case and Dial

The watch is constructed with an 18K rose gold case, which measures approximately 22 x 22.5mm. The design features a sharply tapered, angular geometry. The bezel is set with diamonds, a feature identified in the source as a factory configuration.

The dial is silver in color, displaying black Roman numerals in a large format. A chemin-de-fer minute track encircles the interior of the numerals, and the time is indicated by blued steel hands. The case architecture is intended to create an integrated aesthetic with the bracelet.

Evidence for this section
  • “pairing an 18K rose gold case measuring approximately 22 x 22.5mm with a factory diamond-set bezel”
  • “silver dial is pure Cartier: oversized black Roman numerals, a chemin-de-fer minute track, blued steel hands, and the familiar sapphire cabochon set into the crown”
  • “sharply tapered case gives the watch an almost architectural quality”

Bracelet and Construction

The integrated rose gold bracelet is a primary design element of the watch. It is composed of sculptural, overlapping links that connect directly to the case body. This construction is intended to give the object the visual characteristics of a piece of jewelry.

To maintain the continuity of the bracelet's design, the watch utilizes a concealed deployant clasp. This mechanism hides the closure point beneath the bracelet links while the watch is worn on the wrist.

Evidence for this section
  • “The real drama, however, is the integrated rose gold bracelet. Sculptural, overlapping links flow directly from the case”
  • “A concealed deployant clasp keeps the construction uninterrupted on the wrist.”
  • “more sculpture than timekeeper”

Provenance and Accompanying Items

The watch is provided with its original documentation and packaging. According to the source, the set includes inner and outer boxes, as well as the accompanying papers and pamphlets. The source identifies the collection's origin as the mid-2000s, noting it was named in tribute to the actress María Félix.

The item is being offered by the source as a complete package. The documentation details are intended to support the watch as an ensemble piece rather than an individual watch head.

Evidence for this section
  • “This example is accompanied by its inner and outer boxes, papers, and pamphlets.”
  • “Introduced in the mid-2000s and named in tribute to legendary Mexican actress María Félix”
