Calibre de Cartier Chronograph Stainless Steel / Silver / Bracelet

In Context

At 42 mm it is sized to the current mainstream: 40 mm is the median across every watch measured in this catalogue. At 10 mm thick it is about average for a modern wristwatch. The case back is open, so the movement is visible without taking the watch apart, and the sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. 100 m is genuine swimming resistance — more than the shape of this watch suggests it would need.

The movement winds itself from the motion of your wrist. 48 hours of reserve is enough to set it down on Friday evening and find it still running on Monday. At 28,800 vph the seconds hand advances 8 times a second.

W7100045 stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a silver guilloche dial with a stainless steel case. Introduced in 2011. Beyond the time it carries a chronograph.

Self-winding column-wheel operated chronograph movement with small seconds and date, introduced in 2012. A ValFleurier product, it is also seen as Piaget's 1160P since the 2016 introduction of the Polo S Chronograph.
