Cartier
For sale is a very recognisable and stunningly eccentric timepiece: a Cartier Roadster GMT XL with reference number 2722. It dates back to the mid 2000s, featuring an intriguingly oversize tonneau shaped stainless steel case measuring 42mm wide and 47mm high including the lugs. The silver watch face boasts a very typical Cartier layout: elongated Roman numerals, an inner railroad track and outer 24 hour display for the GMT feature. A secondary hour hand allows the wearer to keep track of not one, but two different time zones at once: a convenient feature when travelling or keeping in touch with contacts in different time zones. All of this is well protected by the tonneau shaped sapphire crystal, with its peculiar lens bubble over the date window at 3 O'clock.
Powering the watch is a Swiss Made Chopard Calibre 8500 which is working perfectly. It features quick adjustments for both the GMT hand and date using the overly large crown. Said crown is original and helps give the watch a waterproof rating of 100m. The watch comes fitted to its original stainless steel bracelet with original Cartier folding clasp and handy quick release system. It can easily be replaced for a Cartier strap, in order to drastically change the look of the watch in seconds. Please note that the bracelet will currently fit wrists with a circumference of approximately 19.5cm at maximum. Decreasing the size is easily done by removing some bracelet links. In order to extend the bracelet size past the current maximum of 19.5cm, spare links will have to be sourced online or at a dealership.
The example sold here has been worn throughout its life, but is still in good condition. You will find minor wear marks on the case and bracelet, but no overly coarse damage. The sapphire crystal appears to be free from scratches. Please study the pictures in this listing well: they show the watch in the condition that it is in, with no digital enhancements to make it look better than it is. We are sure that you like honesty, and so do we. Functionally, the watch has been freshly serviced and is working perfectly. Sadly no original box is accompanying this piece, but the watch does come accompanied by all of its paperwork bundled in the original Cartier folder: the service booklet with certificate, instruction manual and international service booklet.
Your new timepiece will be packaged with great care, and will be shipped out as fast as possible. We usually ship the same day your payment comes in, and provide full insurance as well as a tracking code for all of our packages. If you have any questions regarding the item or our services, please do not hesitate to reach out. We'll gladly assist as soon as we get the chance.
