Lot Essay

This unusual timepiece is one of the exceedingly rare skeletonized minute repeating dress watches made by Cartier at the beginning of the 20th century, a fine example of one of Cartier's "couteau" dress watches, referring to the ultra thin case resembling a knife's edge.

It perfectly combines elegance and highest workmanship.
