Many couples enjoy wearing matching watches to commemorate special moments and symbolise their romantic connection. Traditionally, matching watches often have identical designs, with larger sizes for men and smaller sizes for women, however this approach can sometimes feel too formal or lack of excitement."Seeking similarity in difference" by finding common ground in contrasts may create a unique bond between two. So, how should you choose matching watches from the various luxury brands? Cartier offers many timeless designs that are both simple and aesthetically enduring. In this article, we are showcasing a few different combinations with Cartier watches, offering more varied possibilities for matching watches.
The Cartier Santos de Cartier series and the Panthère de Cartier series, although inspired by different sources and each with its unique style, surprisingly complement each other when paired together.
The Santos de Cartier series was launched in 1904, designed by Louis Cartier for his friend, aviation pioneer, Alberto Santos Dumont. It is said to be the first wristwatch specifically designed for aviation. The Santos de Cartier series is characterized by a square case with rounded edges and a bezel featuring eight visible screws, inspired by the screws on Alberto Santos Dumont's airplane. The Santos de Cartier is one of the few watch series with over a century of history, and remains one of Cartier's most iconic and classic model.
The Panthère de Cartier series was launched in 1983, featuring a watch with simple and graceful lines. The square case with rounded edges, along with the screws on the bezel, echoes the Santos de Cartier series. The delicate bracelet of the Panthère de Cartier is soft and comfortable, resembling a ladies jewelry bracelet.
Despite the completely different design backgrounds of the Santos de Cartier and Panthère de Cartier series, they come together to create a sense of "you are in me, and I am in you" romance.
The Ballon Bleu de Cartier series, with its neutral design, is also an ideal choice for matching watches. The series' neutral design principle allows it to exude elegance whether worn by men or women. The Ballon Bleu de Cartier offers a variety of case sizes, including 28mm, 33mm, 36mm, 40mm, and 42mm. It comes in case materials such as stainless steel, rose gold, yellow gold, white gold, half gold, and diamond-studded options, with a rich selection of dial colors to suit different personal styles.
The Tank Américaine series was introduced in 1989 and was redesigned in 2023 by Cartier to return with a slimmer and a more streamlined design on the case. The design is based on a rectangular case, with reworked geometric lines that emphasize a more elongated, streamlined design compared to the original Tank model. The Tank Américaine series includes versions in rose gold and white gold, with the men's model featuring a classic black leather strap and the women's model offering various strap options, including leather, rose gold, and diamond-encrusted white gold, catering to the different preferences of wearers.
