The Basics

With its round case and straight lugs, the Rotonde de Cartier is one of the brand’s more traditional designs – while retaining many Cartier signature elements. This collection consists primarily of watches with added complications. The Rotonde Mysterious Hour builds upon Cartier’s long history of ‘mysterious’ clocks, whose hands seemingly float in thin air without any visible connection to any form of movement. Reference HPI00889 has a white gold case set with 183 baguette-cut diamonds totaling 7.13 carats, a beaded crown set with a brilliant-cut faceted diamond of 0.12 carats, and a rhodiumized 18K white gold dial set with 182 baguette-cut diamonds totaling 5.92 carats.
