Bidspirit auction | VINTAGE ”CARTIER QUADRANT” TRAVEL ALARM

VINTAGE ”CARTIER QUADRANT” TRAVEL ALARM CLOCK - 80s/90s LUXURY ICON - Elegant vintage travel alarm clock from the prestigious Cartier brand, ”Quadrant” model (Pendulette de Voyage), manufactured in Switzerland with a precision quartz movement. This exclusive piece stands out for the Maison's timeless design, featuring a square gold-plated metal case with engraved Roman numerals, lapis lazuli-style blue enamel side details, and the iconic crown adorned with a faceted blue cabochon. The signed dial, hands, and crystal are in very good aesthetic condition. The golden rear support plate is currently loose due to the absence of the decorative golden tip on the right side of the hinge, requiring a small intervention or technical restoration to reattach it. The quartz mechanism also needs a maintenance service and battery replacement as it is stopped. This is an excellent opportunity for collectors and restoration enthusiasts to acquire an authentic luxury piece with great potential for appreciation in the second-hand market once repaired. This watch, when functional and repaired, reaches values around €800 in the international market.
