WATCHES & WONDERS 2021: PASHA DE CARTIER

By

WITH ITS DISTINCTIVE CODES, CHAINED CROWN AND EXTRAORDINARY DESIGN, THE PASHA HAS BEEN A WATCH FOR THOSE WHO THINK BIG SINCE ITS CREATION IN 1985.

“The Pasha is both an aesthetic and a feeling of strength and power… Moreover, when we launched it in 1985 it was immediately worn by an entire generation of opinion leaders. It has kept this strength.” Pierre Rainero, Director of Image, Style and Heritage at Cartier.

Successfully relaunched in 2020, the new Pasha de Cartier watch is sophisticated in terms of watchmaking functions and design details that combine to strengthen and maximise its ergonomic appeal: interchangeable straps, sapphire case back, a new crown and personalised engraving.

A cult watch whose repertoire is growing in 2021 with two new key designs: from a more feminine 30 mm version to a more masculine 41 mm chronograph version.

PASHA DE CARTIER 41MM CRONOGRAPH WATCH

Made to measure records, the new Cartier chronograph boosts the Pasha watch’s power and visibility. A strong approach that further enhances the watch’s design, accentuated by the presence of a rotating bezel and two push-pieces. Faithful to the historic version of the first Pasha chronographs, these two buttons, set with a cabochon, have kept the original design’s volume. A choice of both style and excess that is perfectly in line with the Pasha de Cartier spirit. “The chronograph interpretation differs from a simple display to offer a daring aesthetic alternative. This latest addition to the Pasha family thus revives the myth in a new light.” Marie-Laure Cérède, Director of Design for Watchmaking at Cartier.

This new chronograph version is equipped with a 1904-CH MC Cartier Manufacture movement and a sapphire case back. In steel or gold, all these versions can be interchanged thanks to an adaptation of the Cartier-developed QuickSwitch system. This invisible mechanism blends into an architecture located under the case and is activated by a single push. The metal bracelet can also be adjusted to the nearest link, without the need for tools, thanks to the SmartLink system.

Having the measurements of 41 mm x 11.97 mm, the case is in 18K yellow gold or steel. The crown set features a sapphire cabochon or a blue synthetic spinel cabochon. The model comes with QuickSwitch navy blue and grey alligator leather strap or steel bracelet with Smartlink size adjustmen system. The model is powered by Manufacture Mechanical Movement with Manual Winding 1904-CH MC. Operating at a frequency of 28,800 vph, it has a power reserve of 47 hours.

A NEW DIAMETER: 30MM

After the 35 mm version was launched in 2020, the Pasha watch is becoming more feminine with a new 30 mm size. A watch with a jewellery-watch diameter, a quartz movement and all the signature details found on a Pasha watch: from personalised engraved initials hidden behind the crown cover to interchangeable straps.

In steel or gold, with or without diamonds, all these versions can be interchanged thanks to an adaptation of the Cartier-developed QuickSwitch system. This invisible mechanism blends into an architecture located under the case and is activated by a single push.

Having the measurements of 30 mm x 8.22 mm, the case is in pink gold or steel.The crown set features a sapphire cabochon or a blue synthetic spinel cabochon. The model comes with QuickSwitch red, fuchsia, navy blue, and grey alligator leather strap or steel bracelet with Smartlink size adjustmen system. The model is powered by Quartz movement.
