Cartier Crash

In 2013, a limited Crash special edition was released in which the bracelet shared by 67 models was decorated with diamonds of up to 4.27 carats. With a width of 22.5 millimetres and a height of 38.45 millimetres, this luxurious timepiece is larger than the original and shines through its interior. Since 2013, the hand-wound mechanical movement has been ticking at the heart of the Cartier Crash. Haute Horlogerie par excellence, the Cartier Crash is a magnificent specimen in all respects and is one of the most luxurious and expensive niche products. This is why a Crash is generally only available in stationary retail outlets on request.

The term "Crash" comes from the English language and stands for a car accident or a collision. It is this name that is said to have been decisive for the design of the Cartier Crash. In the mid-1960s, the Cartier vice president died in a car accident in London. His melted watch, reminiscent of the famous surrealist paintings by Dalí, was left behind. In homage to the vice-president, Cartier is said to have created the Crash with the large, elongated Baignoire Allongée. The model thus perfectly captures the zeitgeist of the art scene of the time and seems as fascinating as it is mysterious.

The Cartier Crash is a stylish statement on the wrist and undoubtedly an eye-catcher. At CHRONEXT, you can obtain this extravagant model at fair prices and with a 24-month CHRONEXT warranty.
