The largest of the Must de Cartier 21 models, and the only one with the calendar and second hand.  Model reference 9011.

HOW DO WE DATE THIS WATCH?

The Must de Cartier range was launched in the 1970’s, as gold prices were driving away Cartier’s traditional buyers (gold prices more than quadrupled within a decade.)  So a range of steel and gold plated silver watches were created, and these were named Must de Cartier.  For the 21 model line you could get three different case sizes, with 28mm being the ladies version, then 31mm and finally this 35mm version, and throughout the mode run the bracelets evolved.  This bullet style bracelet with five centre links was the middle of the three styles, and that was around the early 1990’s.

CONDITION

These slim yet sporty watches were a hit in the 1990’s, and very desirable.  Part of their appeal is that they look like nothing else, without being quirky.  The larger size is the most popular today, but wasn’t when they were new – you will find many more 31mm versions for sale than 34/35mm versions.  The bezel is better than average for one of these – they do tend to show light scratches, but this is a good one.  The glass does have some light scratches, but the cabochon polished stone set in the crown is chip free.  The movement is a Cartier 87.06 quartz with quick set date and we will install a brand new battery before sending the watch out to the new owner.  The bracelet is quite long and our sister website, SpareLinks.com, may have extra links if required.  The bracelet has been cleaned in our ultrasonic bath.  You will find models of this watch on a leather strap, and they should be cheaper, but this bullet style bracelet is a big part of the design of this model and worth paying the extra for.

This watch will be supplied with our branded presentation box and our Certificate of Authenticity.
