By the mid 1970s, Cartier has secured itself as a global name in luxury goods — namely jewelry, and of course, watches. But prior to this time, the maison was much smaller and produced far fewer goods. As such, anything prior to the early 1970s can be considered special, rare, and usually interesting... In fact, Cartier subcontracted a handful of other brands to produce watches for them: Movado, Piaget, Bulova, etc. 

The piece that we have here is one of those watches. Manufactured by New York-based Bulova in circa 1958, this piece comes in at approximately 33mm in diameter and is fashioned out of 14k yellow gold. It features a 'stepped' case construction with stylized 'fancy' lugs, a caseback secured by a steel ring, and a beautiful dial within. The case shows normal signs of wear and some sleeve polish from age and retains defined factory finishing. The sunburst gold dial inside has lovely faceted applied indices and is in outstanding, virtually flawless condition. Of course, it bears the "Cartier" signature rendered in black on the top half, as well as "Automatic" on the lower half. The movement within is automatic-winding and has a Cartier-signed rotor. The caseback is also signed Cartier along with various specifications.

In addition to quite simply being a beautiful example of 1950s design, this piece represents fantastic value considering it's solid gold construction and the interesting story behind its genesis.

And we'll bet you don't see another anytime soon.

Arrived damaged
Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel Basic
Unfortunately, very cheaply made. It arrived with one of the connecting tubes cracked horizontally. Possibly due to bad welding. It is quite a headache to assemble. It was delivered on time but returned for a refund.

Not a great experience but a fine product
Color: Black, Size: 4 Panel Basic
not enough screws were included to make the wall. I was able to locate more screws to finish building-so I didn’t have to return the product- but it was a pain and I got lucky finding the pieces I needed but it could’ve been a fail and a returned product

Useful, simple room divider
Color: White, Size: 4 Panel Basic
All the pieces were accounted for, and some even had extra pieces, maybe just in case they need changing. It was a bit like putting together a piece of IKEA furniture, though I went slower than usual so as not to make any mistakes. It wasn’t too hard to put together myself, and helps give my studio apt a feeling of space and privacy for my bed. I only wish it had a lovely Japanese design on it, but it does amazingly seem to match the wall color.
