Cartier Baignoire 2369

Cartier Cartier Baignoire Mini (Reference 2369). A white gold quartz wristwatch. Circa 2005

Description Literally translating to “Bathtub”, it’s easy to see why the Baignoire name was bestowed to this Louis Cartier design. The roots of the shape can be traced back to over 100 years ago in 1912, speaking to the enduring and genius nature of the original design. The present watch is the modern iteration in the mini size, featuring a dimple set movement thus negating the need for a crown and resulting in a completely seamless and symmetrical design.
