Cartier Must de Cartier Vendôme Wristwatch

This is a vintage ladies' Must de Cartier Vendôme wristwatch, likely dating from the 1980s or 1990s. The timepiece features a round case, approximately 24-30mm in diameter, crafted from vermeil (18k gold plating over sterling silver). Its dial is a classic champagne or gold-toned shade with a minimalist two-hand display and the distinct Cartier branding positioned below the 12 o'clock marker. A notable design feature is the Vendôme-style bar lugs which attach the case to a slim, dark navy or black crocodile-embossed leather strap. The strap is secured with a matching gold-tone ardillon buckle. Regarding condition, the watch displays moderate signs of wear consistent with age, including light surface scratching on the metal bezel and some creasing along the leather band. The gold plating appears largely intact, though typical vintage pieces in this line often show minor tarnishing or thinning at the edges of the lugs. The minimalist aesthetic and T-bar lug design are hallmarks of the Vendôme collection's mid-century revival, representing high-quality French horology and luxury fashion.
