Lot Essay

This endangered species strap is shown for display purposes only and is not for sale. The watch will be supplied with a calf leather strap.

Introduced in 1996, the Cartier Tortue XL Tourbillon Chronograph Monopoussoir was offered as a limited edition of 40 pieces only. Designed in an oversized tonneau-shaped case, the watch features a tourbillon escapement along with a chronograph function activated by a single button. Adding to the rarity, the present timepiece is offered in very good overall condition and is furthermore sold with the full set of accessories.

The Tortue collection holds an important status in the collection of Cartier wristwatches. First introduced in 1915, as a time only watch, Cartier introduced their first Tortue Monopoussoir in 1928, alongside a Tortue Minute Repeating wristwatch.
