Introduction

Celebrating Cartier's storied heritage of luxury and elegance and tracing its design roots back to 1912 when Louis Cartier crafted an unnamed watch for Grand Duchess Pavlovna of Russia, the Cartier Baignoire was officially released to the public in 1957 as the "Baignoire," French for "bathtub”. Embodying the brand’s daring reinterpretation of the traditional round watch, the ref. 1967 captures the Baignoire’s iconic silhouette with a modern twist with its unique 18k yellow gold loop bracelet. Stretching into a curved, feminine silhouette that measures 20mm x 28mm, the ref. 1967’s aesthetic is entirely unusual thanks to its oval-linked 18k gold bracelet that mirrors the case’s shape, while the concealed lugs ensure easy strap interchangeability. Featuring Cartier’s timeless Roman numerals, blued steel sword-shaoed hands, and an iconic sapphire cabochon crown grace the ivory dial, the watch completes Cartier signature design.
