New Cartier Watches at The 1916 Company

Cartier has long defined the art of watchmaking at the intersection of design and precision. Known for shaping the modern wristwatch and pioneering a stylistic approach to horology, Cartier remains a symbol of refinement and innovation. The 1916 Company is proud to offer new Cartier watches — available through our online concierge and in our Baltimore, Delaware, Denver, and Newport Beach showrooms.

History of Cartier Watches

Cartier was established in Paris in 1847 by Louis-François Cartier. Initially, the company specialized in fine jewelry, quickly earning recognition for its exceptional designs and craftsmanship. Cartier's innovative approach led to the creation of some of the most iconic jewelry and watch designs throughout history. In the early 20th century, Cartier began producing wristwatches, transforming the way people told time. The Santos watch, created in 1904 for aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont, is considered one of the first pilot's wristwatches. Cartier watches are renowned for their elegant designs, incorporating elements of Art Deco and classic French style. The brand maintains a strong connection to fine jewelry, often utilizing precious metals and gemstones in its watch creations. Cartier is also celebrated for its innovative watch shapes, such as the Tank, the Crash, and the Ballon Bleu, which have become iconic designs. Cartier's dedication to quality and craftsmanship has solidified its position as one of the most prestigious and sought-after luxury watch brands globally.
