On paper the stats of this movement may not be that impressive - time and date and just a 48-hour power reserve, you might be asking yourself why they even bothered with two barrels for such a standard power reserve.īut this is where Cartier again defies expectations in being much more technical than you’d imagine from a house known for its design. On the inside is the Cartier 1904-PS in house movement - PS indicating the small seconds variant. With the classic Cartier Roman numerals going from 9 till 2 o'clock, a triple date aperture between two and four, small seconds at six, and batons for the rest of the hour markers - this is unlike any diver out there - and the looks are just the beginning. If Darth Vader wore a dive watch, it would be this.īut unlike most divers that are modeled after the blueprint set out by the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms & Rolex Submariner - the Calibre de Cartier looks completely unique within the segment.

And then a year later in 2015 Cartier upped the ante by creating this blacked out, ADLC coated, rubber strap variant. That all changed in 2014 with the introduction of the Calibre de Cartier diver.Ī 300M ISO-certified dive watch complete with rotating bezel, screw-down crown & a design unlike any of its competitors. Cartier is best known for its dress and sport casual watches, but it isn’t the first brand that comes to mind when one thinks of dive watches.
