Cartier recently unveiled the new Panthère de Cartier watch at this year’s Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie (SIHH). This new timepiece is a tribute to the original 1980 version. Its distinctive characteristics include a smooth square bezel with micro screws (similar to the Santos), with a slinky and supple chain-like bracelet strap.

Limited Numbered Edition in Pink Gold and Black Lacquer  Small (limited to 50 pieces globally) Medium (limited to 30 pieces globally)

The Panthère de Cartier comes in 2 sizes (small and medium), in yellow gold, pink gold, white gold, and mixed metals (yellow gold and steel), with or without diamonds, and a Limited Numbered Edition in Pink Gold and Black Lacquer (above pic). My favourite, however, is the leopard motif one, fully covered in diamonds, heh.

Do you prefer this, or the Santos?
