Ladies' watches, unfortunately, don’t get the attention they deserve. It has seemingly been long assumed that women will be content with shoddily-designed timepieces devoid of soul , providing of course that they are pink and have loads of precious stones set on them. We know this to be nonsense - every design should be considered. At Analog:Shift, we are excited to curate a selection of timepieces that provide equally engaging options for ladies as the more common men’s pieces. No watch better captures this philosophy than the Cartier Baignoire. This example, a Reference 2290, features a beautiful case shape measuring 20mm in width, with its soft curves and oblong ellipse aesthetic. Paired with a beautiful pink alligator strap and 18K yellow gold deployant clasp, this watch is anything but boring, and provides an incredible host of details to obsess over. In spite of the unique design, this piece still preserves many of the details of classic Cartier we would hope to see: a Roman numeral dial, blued steel hands, petite Cartier logo, and more all serve as a reminder that this piece is backed by a name with an unrivaled history for fine jewelry making, and yes, watchmaking too. Powered by a quartz movement, this piece is in excellent condition and awaits its next custodian’s wrist. A Baignoire on a leather strap is a solid choice for any occasion! Show more
