The Calibre de Cartier case measures 42mm in diameter and is available in steel, steel and pink gold, and solid pink gold. The rotor and upper bridges are finished with traditional Côtes de Genève, and the main plate, which is hidden from view, is circular-grained. The movement measures 25.6mm in diameter and 4mm thick and it beats at 28.800 vph. Cartier abandoned reversers in favor of a pawl system to speed winding, and a bi-directional full-size rotor assures maximum winding efficiency. Ceramic ball bearings at the center of the rotor ensure excellent shock resistance and durability. A stop-seconds system facilitates synchronization to a reference signal.Ĭartier also paid close attention to the winding system. The movement features twin barrels to provide a steady flow of power to the escapement, and the regulation system allows for fine adjustment to increase timekeeping accuracy. It powers the new men’s Calibre de Cartier line.
At SIHH last week, Cartier introduced a new in-house automatic movement known as 1904-PS MC.
