Good Condition
This elegant Cartier Panthère Date Ref. 1100 (c. 1990) features a 27mm two-tone stainless steel and 18k yellow gold case, cream dial with black Roman numerals and date, and a blue sapphire cabochon crown, powered by quartz. On a black leather strap and in good vintage condition, it's ideal for boardroom meetings, gallery openings, or a refined dinner out.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What is the size of this Cartier Panthère and how does it wear on the wrist? A: The case measures 27 mm across (medium/midsize in the Panthère family). Because it is a square design, it wears a touch larger than a round 27 mm watch; similar models have an approximate 36 mm lug-to-lug length, giving a balanced presence on small to medium wrists.
Q: What movement does it use and how often will it need a battery? A: It runs on a Swiss quartz movement. Typical battery life is around 2–3 years, and Cartier advises replacing the battery and seals periodically to maintain performance and water resistance. A movement check every ~5 years is recommended.
Q: Is this vintage Panthère water-resistant? A: The reference 1100 was originally rated to 30 m/3 ATM, suitable for light splashes only. As a vintage watch, water resistance is not guaranteed; we recommend keeping it dry unless it has been pressure-tested after a recent seal replacement.
Q: Where is the date display and how do I set the time and date? A: The date is positioned at about 5 o’clock. For most Cartier quartz models, the crown’s first click adjusts the date and the second click adjusts the time. Avoid changing the date between roughly 9 pm and 3 am to protect the mechanism; if unsure, consult a professional.
Q: What materials and features does this model have? A: The ref. 1100 Panthère combines stainless steel with 18k yellow gold accents, a cream/ivory dial with Roman numerals, a blue cabochon crown, a scratch‑resistant sapphire crystal and a date function. This piece is fitted with a black leather strap and pin buckle.
Q: Is the gold on this two‑tone model solid or plated? A: On ref. 1100 two‑tone pieces, the bezel is 18k yellow gold paired with a stainless‑steel case. This construction is typical for the model and period.
Q: Can I change the strap, and do I need a Cartier strap? A: Yes, the leather strap can be replaced. For best fit and finish, a Cartier strap and matching buckle are recommended, but high‑quality third‑party leather straps that match the correct dimensions can be fitted by a competent watchmaker.
Q: What servicing should I plan for with a vintage Cartier quartz watch? A: Plan for a battery and seal service about every 2–3 years and a full movement check roughly every 5 years. Only qualified watchmakers should open the case; maintaining fresh gaskets and proper sealing is essential for moisture protection.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information for this listing. If an item (such as a box or papers) is not mentioned there, it is not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this watch? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale undergoes multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, reviewing materials, construction, stamps, engravings and movement to ensure authenticity. We are happy to provide additional photos or details on request.
