First, the master burns the entire plate blue, then scrapes off part of the surface with a tool, then fires it to produce brown, yellow, or beige, then scrapes it again, fires it, and so on, until it completes the jaguar we see now. Although changing the color of the metal plate itself is not as mysterious and complex as enamel painting, it is not easy to make every hair come to life; not to mention that if you accidentally burn it too much, you have to start all over again. Therefore, it is really difficult to achieve without complete focus. Powered by the Cartier calibre 430 MC, the 2.1 mm thickness makes the entire watch only 7.24 mm thick, making it ideal for wearing.
In fact, many of Cartier‘s impressive watches this year are designed with the jaguar as the main theme and use a variety of detailed and intricate techniques to show different styles. For example, the Drive de Cartier Jaguar with its cushion-shaped 18-carat gold case is unique, not only engraved with a large jaguar with a yellow gold dial but also extends the picture beyond the sapphire crystal, like a painting that breaks free from the frame and limits. Therefore, the left and lower bezel and lugs are all part of the leopard’s body. If you look closely, you can see the careful finishing, from the bezel to the dial, which perfectly depicts the hair on the skin of the jaguar; the black markings are enamelled to create a brilliant shine.
Another new Panthère Joueuse uses diamond-paving techniques to create a sparkling leopard’s head and claws; emerald leopard eyes and lacquered leopard prints are Cartier‘s best creative techniques. In particular, the time is not shown under the definite hands and hour markers but by the leopard’s claw and a diamond-encrusted ball that it plays with; the leopard’s claws move like a minute hand in one rotation per hour, following the sphere representing the hour at all times. This playful image is driven by Cartier‘s new 9918 MC calibre, which is timeless day after day, year after year, as if the time of eternity is recorded on the dial with a child’s heart. The 18-carat white gold case is set with brilliant-cut diamonds.

Very good, I like it very much. It is worthy of being a classic watch. I looked at a lot of it online and finally chose this one. I also went to the store to see it. I like the appearance very much. After receiving the goods, I wear it every day and the time is also accurate
