    Inspired from a wristwatch from the early 1930s, The Pasha of Marrakesh, Thami El Glaoui ordered a specific timepiece from Louis Cartier. Cased in yellow gold, the watch presented was one that could withstand the active lifestyle of Pasha that was water-resistant to a certain level, a unique feature at the time. To accomplish that, the watch was equipped with a larger case diameter, a crown cover and a metal grid to protect the dial.

    The birth of the Pasha was in 1985 during the quartz crisis released by Alain Dominique Perrin, Cartier’s CEO at the time. Designed by famed designer, Gerald Genta, the Pasha embodied a masculine appeal that remained in line with Cartier’s iconic elegance.

    The present Cartier Pasha is easily one of most playful iterations of the model from the 2000s. Produced in a cloisonée enamel limited series in white gold, the vivid and playful expression of the Congo African grey parrot steals the spotlight with its beautiful shades of grey. Each layer of its feathers are carefully defined by the master enameller, each curve of the shimmering gold wire forms the beautiful and intelligent creature. Anchored by four baguette diamond-set indexes with claw setting that resembles the 4 toes of the parrot’s feet, the amusing bird is surrounded in the tropical of green and yellow. Powered by the calibre 311B decorated with the iconic Collection Privée pattern, the present timepiece is an exquisite choice for the flamboyant and quick-witted collector.

    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.
