Just a reminder to all the watch enthusiasts, slow down and consider each purchase. 1 watch per year is generally fast paced.

[@BarkandJack]

Great advice. Instagram / social media can make us feel like we need more.

[@catlook36]

Useful reminder!🫡

[@martinward7239]

I love all this advice. But disagree. I'm 54. I've been wearing and collecting watches since 1976. I've owned hundreds of watches. 1 a year is your opinion. My opinion is you buy as many as you want or like.

[@ronnienes]

The older I get the more I like watches that are also jewellery. I recently bought a 1980s Longines gold tone watch with a “woven”mesh bracelet. It’s a 2 hand quartz, it’s tiny at 32mm and I love it.

[@dogroot_official]

Grabbed a pair of Santos for a milestone wedding anniversary. They are stunning watches. Tudor/Omega fan here, so this was a leap-one I’m extremely happy I took.

[@chewbacca6893]

£25400 for the gold one is ridiculous

[@keltecdan]

Still a classy elegant watch despite the ludicrous price.

[@markpritchard23]

It was the mid-size, Steel & Gold with date at 5 o'clock that started my now 84th watch obsession. That was back in 1979. My favourite watch in my 84nr is my Medium Size Stainless Steel Santos de Cartier on my 7.75 inch wrist. Like you say, ignore the measurements and wear and enjoy 🤩

[@ASH7388]

so happy someone finally cover the cartier panthere. me and my wide have a pairing wedding watch, with her wearing the panthere in small size and the santos medium for me. many friends has complimented the choice, since most people would pick the tank over the panthere, but yet this panthere has a case design that resonates very well with the santos. my wife actually love wearing it with a black leather strap that literally transforms it into a santos dumont small which does not exist! the panthere bracelet is also really comfortable, but very difficult to size (i didnt want to risk scratching the polished edges so we brought it back to the cartier store to resize)

[@robertdukes4420]

Love the slightly more off piste enjoyment from you here Adrian. It’s a beautiful watch that’s for sure! I’m sure you’ll keep us all updated if you ever decide to purchase!

[@nathanlikert9866]

For half the price, get a vintage 2961 two-tone Santos Carree that looks almost exactly the same and has an automatic movement

[@mr.seyfried1652]

As a proud owner of Panthere medium Steel for over 6 years, I agree. I somehow feel more confident but reserved as a man wearing this supposed lady’s watch.

[@j.m.4444]

What I love about Cartier is their use of the cheapest Selitta Movements, or even 10$ Quarz, for a pricing of an inhouse movement.

[@johnprosser5035]

It's hardly a $10 quartz..... But I get your point.

[@martinward7239]

Show me a Cartier with a $10 quartz movement in it. This comment is from someone who has zero understanding of Cartier

[@ALL-il1sw]

I feel like "in house" has become a headline that gets thrown out there like it means something. Selita and ETA make some great movements, and like the car industry, I don't have any issues with parts being used across many brands. As long as that brand can contribute to innovation somehow, It kinda makes business sense.

[@wallpaper000]

Wonder if Richard Mille put that $10 quartz into one of their products......how much will they charge

Adrian If you like full gold, go for the Vacheron 222

All watch collecting journeys will ultimately lead to either the Santos or the Reverso. Your final decision is to just decide which one you want.

[@DrewF82]

Such a cool video, love how you found a way to describe quartz movements as a form of luxury.

[@NiftyNesty]

I got myself a two-tone panthere couple months ago and love wearing it. My style is a bit dressy though so it matches my aesthetic, but I know that isn’t the case for everyone. I do agree to wear what you like. I like the daintiness of Cartier watches so much so that I got the Baignoire bangle over the weekend. They both wear like jewelry but I find that to be a pro.

[@chareric]

I agree so much with the contrast. You don't have to just have one favourite style!

[@KamilOlaf]

Adrian, I think it’s high time to admit that the watch world is reopening to dress watches. In last 10-20 years watch enthusiasts and people in general were buying bigger watches, sport watches. But we can see slight change of this trend, with Cartier exceeding sales of Omega, with smaller watches trend. I own Cartier Santos de Cartier and can confirm: my god this watch is good, elegant, classy, extremly universal. And! It has no negative „press” that you can face owning a Rolex and other bold watches.

[@tfacison]

My wife wears the small in gold. It looks great and it being quartz is a plus for ease of use.

[@teamcuba2000]

Spring Drive Seiko. I bought the white birch. Never wear it. Beautiful watch, amazing accuracy. Costs less than this piece of "jewellery". When it sells, I'll be getting a Franck Muller or JLC which I'll get so much more value than one of these...what was that brand favoured by Argos back in the day? Don't get me wrong- face value is beautiful...but with these, beauty is only skin deep. Something the Beckhams would wear.

[@tfacison]

@@teamcuba2000 That’s great, enjoy! The Cartier is absolutely jewelry and more design driven than value driven. Honestly splurging on any luxury watch and trying to justify it based on value is something I stopped a long time ago.

[@shawngreen8505]

Definitely been turning my attention to smaller vintage gold VCs, Pateks, Omegas, and Piaget lately. Great way to wear a beautiful watch and not necessarily attract unwanted attention.

[@WatchClyde]

welcome brother lol...vintage is truly better than modern

[@camnova]

DUDE, yes the Pantheré is such a slept on watch for men. IMO, it truly is a unisex watch that's quite classy

[@BobLorrimer]

These watches are stunning in precious metal and I agree that they do very much lean toward jewellery . The Rose gold versions are somewhat softer in appearance and imbue the wearer with both power and elegance. They are also very silky on the wrist. I have one gripe, the modern version of the Panthere wristwatch lacks the seconds hand which for me gives the dial essential kinetic energy, and neither do they have a calendar date window. Cartier are being mean at £ 25 K to exclude those two details. The earlier models of the Panthere possessed both.

[@kuytgjj]

Welcome to the club! An explorer and a cartier dress watch is the best combo to have. Benefits of the quarz movement: 6-8 years of battery life, its dead silent unlike older cartier models with quarz. It doesnt tick, it only makes a tiny sound when the minute hand moves once after each minute and it allows the watch to be under 8mm thick.

[@SisramShivani]

I've recently began my obsession as a watch collector. And i must say- out of all the luxury brands I've been researching, for me the MaMaCoo 's watches are the most intriguing.

[@Vartan297]

You’re right about the gold content/weight. Shouldn’t cost more than about 4K for the actual gold- and gold is easier to work with than steel… 18ct prices never make sense though.

[@SmokeythecryptkeeperWickware]

Watches are so delicate and intricately designed, so I have intense respect and admiration for amzwatch watch makers

[@mattsa]

As an older watch enthusiast it’s interesting to observe the gradual changing of taste and how our eye finds a watch design appealing when it didn’t in the past. Gold dress watches and Roman numerals, like Cartier, were popular in the 80s and are surging back in. All the rage with the young and fashionable. I’m not calling it the death of the sports watch but their domination is over.

[@douglasmstewart]

I’m with you on luxury quartz timepiece that acts like jewelry. If there’s no seconds hand ticking away it allows the design to show off its full intention without distraction. I’m totally ok with the no seconds precious metal jammies

[@jorgenvandeburgt8670]

Fun fact, although the gold santos is the famous watch worn by Michael Douglas in Wall Street, Charlie Sheen wore a Panthere in that movie.

[@marioavila9866]

I would even take the Panthère over the Santos. Both have "basic" movements for their price range. Unless you're a millionaire, you buy a Cartier watch for it's design, not for its high horology.
