Specs for the steel-case version of the watch are below the photos.Kronos 360, the luxury watches marketplace Like its predecessor, the original Calibre de Cartier, the watch contains the Cartier in-house movement 1904 MC. The Calibre de Cartier Diver is available in an all-steel or rose-gold case, both on a sporty, black rubber strap. This is a clear sign of its pedigree, just like the oversized, luminescent Roman numeral “XII” at the 12 o’clock position. It features a contrast of satin and polished finishes, a turning bezel coated with ADLC and bordered with fluting that recalls the interior of the bezel of the original Calibre de Cartier watch, launched in 2010. They have produced an authentic divers’ watch, without sacrificing everyday comfort on the wrist, in a balanced case measuring just 11 mm in thickness. The manufacture’s watchmakers, as always, took care to maintain a balance of dimensions. Cartier would never release a watch that was overly massive or heavy, so reducing the thickness of the case was a technical and aesthetic challenge. Furthermore, after spending 50 hours at a depth of 30 centimeters at 18° C – 25° C, it continues to function perfectly underwater.ĭespite its sportiness, the watch is still a Cartier. The watch has demonstrated its resistance to saltwater after immersion in a solution of sodium chloride (30 g/l) at 18° C – 25° C for 24 hours. For protection, the Calibre de Cartier Diver is fitted with a thick crystal, a screwed caseback, oversized seals and a screw-down crown that ensure water-resistance to 300 meters. When underwater, diving watches can be subjected to very high pressures and extreme conditions (saltwater, thermal shocks, etc.). The Calibre de Cartier Diver can be clearly read deep below the surface due to the Super-LumiNova applied to its dive-time indicators, hour and minute hands, pre-selection device and small seconds counter. For greater visibility, the markers signaling each five-minute period are clearly indicated. It has been designed with 120 notches (40 teeth and 3 points) to enable adjustment to a half-minute, with a clear sound signal during its rotation. To prevent any accidental rotation or alteration of the dive-time indication, the bezel turns in only one direction.
