Pre-SIHH 2019: The Return of the Cartier Tonneau
Says George, “The history of Cartier’s watches shows us that the Tonneau is the second oldest watch made by the maison. In line up there is first the Santos Dumont, designed in 1904 and then the Tonneau in 1906. Tonneau had its 100th birthday in 2006, when Cartier issued the watch as the larger Tonneau XL.”
The movement powering the new Tonneau Watch Large Model, is the manual wound Calibre 1917 MC with a minimum power reserve of 38 hours. But it doesn’t stop there.
