The story of the Crash unfolds when a client of Cartier brought in his damaged Baignoire from a car crash to the london maison in the 1967. The damaged Baignoire gave the jeweller Jean-Jacques Cartier inspiration to this asymmetric case of the watch which symbolizes nonconformism and creative freedom. The Crash eventually became an iconic model and is only reproduced in limited quantities when available. A rare example of Crash in pink gold case (Lot 2241) will be offered in Hong Kong’s Important Watches sale on 11 Jul, estimated at HK$240k – 320k/ US$21k – 41k.
