Cartier watch is a true legend when it comes to watch making and not long ago they had launched the Skeleton Pocket Watch which drew inspiration from the pocket watches of the 1930s. The Skeleton watch was fashioned in white gold and had Roman numerals on it. The watch was limited edition and was meant only for the elite and their very special occasions. The watch company is also credited for manufacturing some very exquisite time pieces such as the Tank, Pasha and Santos, but ever since they put Carole Forestier Kasapi in charge of their department of development we have seen the launch of some splendid time wear which is to the say the least, the best watches we have ever seen from Cartier. The latest Cartier watches to hit the time market were pieces from the Rotonde de Cartier Line and were the flying tourbillion and central chronograph.
