The Tortue Monopoussoir marked the third watch of Cartier’s creation, representing a development in the brand moving toward an elegant and rounded design modelled after the shape of a tortoise, with its name ‘Tortue’ fitting accordingly. Its first version in 1912 was alike to its two predecessors in that it read time only, but in 1928 the monopoussoir chronograph was introduced and re-released in 1999.

This Cartier Tortue Monopoussoir is fitted with a classic guilloché dial including a Cartier Paris signature at 12 o’clock, black roman numerals, and blued steel hands, warmed by a 34x44mm 18k yellow gold case. The chronograph is operated solely by a single pusher on its crown that is all-encompassing in the start, stop, and reset functions. The caseback has been engraved with No. 0100. This watch has been made available using three different metals including this yellow gold version, as well as white gold (Lot 966 in this auction) and pink gold.

It is part of the Collection Privée Cartier Paris (CPCP), which was launched in 1998 to commemorate historical designs, cherishing its past whilst adapting to the modern day. Though a chronograph is traditionally used for sports timing, its slim case and single pusher radiates a classic Cartier elegance which makes it an ideal piece for a black-tie event. It is in excellent overall condition and comes with its original CPCP presentation box and certificate. This highly rare and truly collectible timepiece is part one of the most illustrious collections that honours the legacy of the Cartier brand, tying together the past and present.

Cartier

French

With the Constitution of 1848 came a new standard for luxury in France. Founded one year prior by Louis-Francois Cartier, the house of Cartier was one of the first to use platinum in jewelry making. This incredibly expensive material became the stepping-stone for Cartier to experiment in form, mechanisms and attitude. It helped men move from pocket watches to wristwatches, effectively making the watch much more functional and prominent in a man's overall wardrobe.

Cartier did not only touch on functionality. Inspired by a commissioned painting by George Barbier featuring a black panther at the feet of an elegantly bejeweled woman, Cartier began incorporating wild animals in his designs—most notably, Cartier Panthère rings, bangle bracelets and watches. Yet it wasn't until the late 1960s that the house of Cartier debuted their iconic yellow and rose gold LOVE collection, which includes the famous bracelet that only a special screwdriver can open.
