Cartier Crash Bond Street London

Born in London during the vibrant Swinging Sixties, the Cartier Crash stands as one of the world’s most iconic—and unquestionably one of the most exclusive—watch designs. The Bond Street edition remains deeply faithful to its origins, available solely through the London boutique on New Bond Street, the very same historic building where Jean-Jacques Cartier oversaw the sale of the original Crash more than fifty years ago. A creation rooted in heritage and scarcity, it is Cartier at its most compelling.

A special caseback engraving and a ruby-set crown elevate this edition with refined, unmistakable exclusivity. Crafted in platinum, the case enhances the Crash’s sculptural brilliance while offering exceptional durability and scratch resistance.

Paired with a grey calfskin strap that contrasts elegantly with the cool-toned metal, the watch maintains a harmonious, modern sophistication. The dial remains true to the original icon: stretched Roman numerals, blued-steel hands, and unmistakable Cartier artistry.

Inside beats the in-house calibre 1917 MC, a hand-wound movement offering a 38-hour power reserve—uniting heritage design with Cartier’s contemporary watchmaking prowess.
