Back To The Future

It might be due to a certain caution about how singling out a certain watch might affect the sales of other models: most of the time, it’s a futile task for a watch journalist to get an industry honcho to name a favourite from his or her brand’s offerings. Which is why Cartier’s image, style, and heritage director Pierre Rainero feels like a breath of fresh air when he immediately answers the question during an interview with The Peak.

“The Tonneau Skeleton Dual Time,” says the smartly dressed Frenchman, without hesitation. “I love it.” This curved, barrel-shaped timepiece – which includes the skeletonised dual time zone model that Rainero mentions – is one of the key timepieces marking Cartier’s renewed focus on “traditional Cartier shapes” in watchmaking.

It is a rare display of solidarity of fierce rivals coming together to face the current global health crisis.
