Cartier Ellipse “Paris” – Ref. 67080 - Paris-Signed Icon

The Cartier Vendôme is one of the twelve original designs introduced in the Louis Cartier Collection of 1973 — a timeless expression of Parisian refinement. This rare example features the coveted “PARIS” signature at six o’clock, indicating it was sold through Cartier’s prestigious Paris (or London) boutique, a detail highly sought after by collectors.

Our Ref. 67080 combines architectural simplicity with unmistakable Cartier sophistication. The 26 mm 18k yellow gold case is crowned by a beautifully stepped bezel, while the blue sapphire cabochon adds a touch of unmistakable Maison flair. The elegant blued steel sword hands complete the unmistakably Cartier aesthetic, offering a burst of color against the white dial.

Powered by a manual-wind movement and paired with its original Cartier strap, this Vendôme Paris is a quintessential dress watch — discreet, elegant, and undeniably chic.

Cartier

Cartier doesn’t just make watches — it shapes cultural icons. Founded in 1847, the maison built its legacy not through complication, but through design. A Cartier vintage watch isn’t just a timepiece; it’s an object of art, architecture, and allure — one that has graced the wrists of tastemakers for over a century.

When Louis Cartier created one of the first men’s wristwatches for aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont in 1904, he unknowingly set the tone for everything to follow: elegance with purpose. The Tank, introduced in 1917, remains one of the most enduring silhouettes in horological history — inspired by the Renault tanks of World War I, yet refined into a form so clean and balanced, it feels sculptural.

From the Tank Louis, to the Cintrée, to the geometric grace of the Santos or the bold curves of the Pasha, Cartier’s vintage watches speak a language all their own. Not technical bravado — but design purity. Proportion. Restraint. Lines so perfect, they need no defense.

To wear a vintage Cartier is to understand that less is often more. It’s for the collector who doesn’t need noise to feel presence. Someone who sees timeless beauty in Roman numerals, chemin-de-fer minute tracks, and heat-blued sword hands.

Cartier’s watchmaking may be rooted in jewelry, but it has always gone far beyond adornment. These pieces are tools of elegance — worn by artists, royals, icons, and the quietly discerning.

Because true luxury doesn’t need complexity.

Just clarity, confidence, and Cartier.
