Condition Report:
The movement is in working condition at the time of cataloguing. All diamonds and gemstones are nice and intact. The crystal with an extremely minor wear only visible under a strong loupe. The dial with surface marks visible to the naked eye possibly due to the hour hand. The case band with a dent at 10 o'clock. The case back with surface scratches by the clasp visible to the naked eye. The strap with wear at places and the folding clasp is in very good overall condition.
Catalogue Note:
Cartier is known for their elegance in watchmaking for the past century. Not limited to avant-garde designs, the current Colisee is a piece of art by itself. Integrating multiple cuts of diamonds on the bezel and the carved rubies, sapphires and emeralds on the case, it not only exerts immense presence on the wrist but also showcases Cartier’s expertise in gemstone craftsmanship. The rarity does not stop there as it is believed to be a possibly unique piece created by the Maison.
