Watches made their debut in the world of jewellery and could now be worn on the wrist in elegant, refined designs. As early as 1904, the company introduced the &#8216;Santos&#8217; model, one of the first wristwatches, which is still in the catalogue today.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The art of turning time into a jewel<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Throughout the 20th century, other watches were created that are now regarded as masterpieces of high-end watchmaking.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Examples include the Cartier \u2018Tonneau\u2019, launched in 1908; the legendary Cartier \u2018Tank\u2019, introduced in 1917; and the Cartier \u2018Tortue\u2019, first appearing in 1919. Cartier&#8217;s Art Deco designs have earned the brand worldwide renown, and are as celebrated for their jewellery as they are for their watches. <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Inspiration and the \u2018Cartier bestiary\u2019<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The success of Cartier\u2019s wristwatches is also due to its animal-themed collections, a favourite motif of the watchmaker. Cartier\u2019s bestiary has contributed to its renown since the 1940s. Time takes on an animal-like quality: uncontrollable yet contained. The precious nature of the materials used and the reliability of the movements ensure the quality of Cartier\u2019s watchmaking creations and contribute just as much to their success and renown.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cartier watches are highly sought after today by collectors of vintage timepieces and connoisseurs of elegant watches.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartier.com\/fr-fr\/collections\/watchmaking\/innovation-and-know-how\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Discover the world of Cartier<\/a><\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/guerin-expertise.com\/en\/tag\/manufacture-horlogere\/\">The major watch manufacturers<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cartier&#8217;s jewellery and watchmaking: The company was founded in Paris in the 19th century by master jewellers who turned their attention to the prestigious field of watchmaking.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2121,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[75,73],"tags":[80,102,78,90,106],"class_list":["post-2122","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-historically","category-leading-brands","tag-major-brands","tag-manufacture-horlogere","tag-technology","tag-timeless-pieces","tag-watchmaking-and-jewellery"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/guerin-expertise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2122","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/guerin-expertise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/guerin-expertise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/guerin-expertise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/guerin-expertise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2122"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/guerin-expertise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2122\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2128,"href":"https:\/\/guerin-expertise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2122\/revisions\/2128"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/guerin-expertise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2121"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/guerin-expertise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2122"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/guerin-expertise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2122"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/guerin-expertise.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2122"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
