The bezel is likely to be slightly sloped inward and we know that the numerals are painted in SuperLumiNova.
Like most dive watches, the Calibre case is fitted with an external rotating diver’s bezel. We will get to see more of the Calibre Diver at SIHH 2014 but for now what we know makes us excited about the new watches. So take one part Cartier and one part dive watch and for some you have a perfect recipe. The idea of a luxury diver is less about actually diving, and more about the idea that you can combine the utilitarian tool watch lover in you with the brand-obsessed fashionista that secretly likes big names. Watch lovers like me go gaga for divers and each luxury brand should have one. Here I was expecting the Calibre GMT for 2014 and instead I am surprised with a diver. The original Calibre (reviewed here) was followed up with the Calibre Chronograph from 2013, and for 2014 Cartier will release the Calibre Diver. While not without its quirks, I enjoyed it right away and the collection became a success. A few years ago in 2010 when the Calibre collection was released, it was to be the brand’s new flagship men’s model in a round case that also featured the brand’s new in-house movement (the caliber 1904MC). If you had to ask me what Cartier watch I’d want and budget was not an issue, it would probably be the Calibre de Cartier Astrotourbillon.
Ready to dive in style? If you had to ask me what Cartier watch I’d want it would probably be something in the Calibre collection.
