Baignoire de Cartier Size 17 Yellow Gold Silver Dial 18mm

About the Model

The Cartier Baignoire (ref. WGBA0035) distills more than a century of Parisian design heritage into a form that’s both elegant and unmistakable. With its softly curved elliptical case and ethereal silver dial, this 18mm rendition continues one of Cartier’s oldest wristwatch stories – first conceived in 1912 and refined across decades.

Crafted in 18k yellow gold, the 18mm case is subtly domed and polished to a mirror-like finish, its bezel flowing seamlessly into the signature Parisian-style Roman numerals on the silvered dial. The beaded crown is topped with a blue sapphire cabochon, while the watch runs on a high-precision quartz movement for slimness and reliability. Water-resistant to 30 metres, it is fitted with a glossy black alligator strap secured by a gold ardillon buckle.

Ref. WGBA0035 stands as a current-generation model in the enduring Baignoire line, notable for its compact proportions and timeless silhouette. For collectors and design purists alike, it offers a distilled expression of Cartier’s early 20th-century creativity in a form suited to modern-day understatement.Read More
