Delivery & Returns
Q: What size is this Cartier Must Vendome watch? A: The case measures 24 mm across, giving it a refined, petite vintage profile on the wrist. It is ideal if you prefer an elegant, understated watch rather than a larger modern size.
Q: What are the defining features of this model? A: This piece features a vermeil case, a brown leather strap, a two-tone dial with Roman numerals, a blue cabochon crown and a quartz movement. Together, these details create the classic, instantly recognisable Cartier look.
Q: What does vermeil mean on this watch? A: Vermeil means the case is made from sterling silver with a gold-plated finish. It offers the warm gold-tone appearance associated with many vintage Must de Cartier watches, but it should be worn with reasonable care to help preserve the finish over time.
Q: Is this watch quartz or mechanical? A: This 1991 example has a quartz movement, so it is battery powered rather than hand-wound or automatic. Quartz is appreciated for straightforward use, accuracy and easy day-to-day wear.
Q: How often will the battery need changing? A: Battery life varies depending on use and the condition of the movement, but Cartier advises that quartz watch batteries last at least around three years on average. For a vintage watch, battery changes are best handled by Cartier or a trusted authorised watchmaker so the case and seals can be checked at the same time.
Q: Is this watch water resistant? A: We do not recommend treating a vintage watch as fully water resistant unless it has been recently pressure-tested by a qualified watchmaker. It is best kept away from water, steam and heavy moisture, especially as the leather strap can also be damaged by liquids.
Q: What is included with this watch? A: This piece is listed with no original box, papers or other extras. Please rely on the product information on this page for exactly what is included with your purchase.
Q: What condition is this watch in? A: The watch is listed in very good overall condition, with light traces of use, light scratches to the shiny hardware and good internal condition. As expected for a 1991 vintage piece, minor signs of age and wear form part of its character.
Q: How do you authenticate this Cartier watch? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully vetted by in-house experts using a multi-point review of materials, engravings, dial details, movement and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
