In a celebration of both artistry and horology, Cartier illuminated New Delhi’s night with an exclusive showcase of its timepieces, held at the residence of French Ambassador H.E. Thierry Mathou over the weekend. The event, which coincided with the tail end of the Diwali festivities, offered a glimpse into Cartier’s storied legacy, where craftsmanship and design seamlessly converge.
The French maison transformed the Ambassador’s residence into an immersive tribute to its heritage, featuring bold Roman numerals and a striking Santos-inspired infinity wall glowing in the brand’s signature ‘Cartier red.’ These elements highlighted Cartier’s deep-rooted connection to luxury and innovation, immersing guests in the world of this iconic French watchmaker.
The evening’s focus was Cartier’s Skeleton collection—a masterful fusion of technical expertise and artistic flair. These skeleton watches, with intricate Roman numeral bridges, exemplified the maison’s talent for blending cutting-edge design with refined craftsmanship, creating timepieces that are as visually captivating as they are functional.
Cartier’s collection also featured its men’s timepieces, which showcased the brand’s technical ingenuity. The Tank Chinoise, inspired by Asian temple architecture, and the 1906 Tonneau, distinguished by its beaded crown and blue steel hands, were displayed alongside reimagined classics such as the Tank Normale and the Métier d’Art Rotonde Islamic Arts, each piece reflecting Cartier’s mastery in marrying historical influences with modern innovation.
The event also spotlighted Cartier’s celebrated jewels, including the 41mm Pasha de Cartier skeleton watch adorned with panther decor. The fiercely elegant La Panthère, a symbol of independence and style, was also featured, alongside Zelda—a 1930s-inspired design that honors the opulence of the Art Deco period.
Collaborating with Kapoor Watch Company, the curated collection captured the essence of Cartier’s exceptional craftsmanship and commitment to timeless luxury. The evening concluded with a high-energy set by DJs Tech Panda and Kenzani, marking a fitting end to a night dedicated to the art of watchmaking.
