About This Watch

Pre-owned. No boxes or manual but has orig. undated paper. This ever popular Cartier Pasha C has just been polished to factory specs & overall condition=99% like new. Watch is very well preserved & in near mint condition with a tight bracelet & good as new now with nothing to fault on. It is a one owner's watch who traded in two Cartiers for an upgrade & this is one of them.

This particular example is a very nice model to have which features a more desirable big-date double apertures versus the usual small window @ 4 o'clock & the black dial with oversized white Arabic nos makes it a stunning combination on a steel watch.

The Pasha is one of the first sports model by Cartier & legend has it that his excellency El Haj T’hami el Mezouari el Glaoui, Pasha of Marrakech wanted a watch to see time while he swims & being very well connected with the French high society so he commissioned Louis Cartier for one in the 1930s but it was not until 1943 when a prototype was showned to the public. It was made in 18 carat gold with a grille to protect the glass & like the military watches during the war, it had a "canteen crown" that screws lock onto the case to withstand moisture & dust, the size was a generous 41mm, huge in those days. The movement was a manual winding Calibre 437 developed in 1939 & supplied by Jaeger leCoultre. The Pasha was again revived in 1985 & introduced to the public as a permanent collection & has since been on the wrist of many celebrities & important clients of Cartier.
