{"product_id":"base-men-87500886","title":"Cartier Ronde Round Wide Bezel 1970s Manual Winding Ref. 7980","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen discussing Cartier, the Tank is, of course, indispensable, but the Ronde is also a model with a long history.\u003cbr\u003eIn recent years, models from before the 1970s, especially those equipped with movements from Lecoultre or EWC, have become popular among collectors, leading to soaring prices.\u003cbr\u003eThis particular piece is a very rare Ronde model, a Cartier creation from the early 1970s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile not the same item, a Maxi Ronde, slightly older than this one, was recently featured on HODINKEE and garnered some attention.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis watch differs from a standard Ronde due to its wide bezel and \"flying\" Roman dial, making it a considerably rare specification.\u003cbr\u003eThe dial features guilloché work, and instead of blue hands, it deliberately uses black hands that match the dial.\u003cbr\u003eThe double-line bezel of the case has a hairline finish, an incredibly elegant design not seen today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe movement adopted is based on a Puzoo movement.\u003cbr\u003e(Confirmed as genuine by Cartier repair estimates, so it is an authentic item. Repair estimate details can also be provided.)\u003cbr\u003eThis is a rare Ronde model that symbolizes Cartier's history.\u003cbr\u003eI believe it offers a different kind of appeal compared to the Tank models.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe dial is a guilloché type with the \"Cartier\" inscription. (It does not have \"swiss\" or \"paris\" markings.)\u003cbr\u003eThe movement is Puzoo, a brand that existed before being absorbed by the current ETA.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRegarding its condition, the case has minor scratches but no significant dents.\u003cbr\u003eThe hairline finish is slightly faded but still present.\u003cbr\u003eThe case back has some scratches and dents, but it is in good condition. (Considering its manufacturing date, some distortion or dents might have been present from the beginning, so it is likely within an acceptable range.)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo maintain its original condition, it has not been polished, and minor scratches are left as they are.\u003cbr\u003eThe dial has some light dirt and stains, but it is relatively clean considering its age. There are no cracks.\u003cbr\u003eThe original glass is in very good condition with only minor scratches. There are no scratches that impair visibility.\u003cbr\u003eThis model is eligible for restoration services at Cartier's home country.\u003cbr\u003eThis service respects originality by maintaining the original dial and movement as much as possible during restoration.\u003cbr\u003eAlthough the dial is already quite clean, Cartier's high standards would ensure a beautiful restoration, so you might consider sending it in if you wish.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe buckle is an authentic Cartier D-buckle from the same period.\u003cbr\u003eThe band is a suede strap custom-made by our shop.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e《Product Details》\u003cbr\u003eBrand Name: Cartier\u003cbr\u003eProduct Name: Tank 1970s Ronde\u003cbr\u003eMovement: Manual winding\u003cbr\u003eCaliber: Puzoo base, Manual winding\u003cbr\u003eMaterial: K18YG\u003cbr\u003eSerial: 25### Case back NO, 7*** 2**\u003cbr\u003eColor: Gold\u003cbr\u003eCase Diameter: Approximately 31.5mm (width)\u003cbr\u003eWrist Size: Up to 18cm (adjustable)\u003cbr\u003eBuckle: Genuine 18K YG\u003cbr\u003eStrap: Custom-made by our shop\u003cbr\u003eAccessories: Our shop's warranty card\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis item has undergone an overhaul.
