Vintage Cartier, Authentically Yours
Cartier Vendôme LM Automatic PARIS Ref. 17003 No Dial Cracks
Released in the 1970s as part of the Louis Cartier collection, the “Vendome Louis Cartier” Ref. 17003.
A solid-gold Automatic watch that embodies the best of Cartier from that era.
It features a domed case back to accommodate the Automatic caliber, making this distinctive profile immediately recognizable from the side.
As well-preserved LM Automatic examples are becoming increasingly rare, this is a highly recommended piece.
This is an exceptionally rare example with the original PARIS Dial from the period, remarkably free of cracks.
Most PARIS Dial examples have at least some cracking, but this one is miraculously free of any cracks.
It is also fitted with an Early Model 18k yellow-gold Buckle. These have become increasingly scarce and difficult to find.
The Strap is also an original Cartier model.
