In line with its commitment to bring the latest from the world of luxury brands to its customers in Oman, Khimji’s Watches now showcases the Clé de Cartier timepieces. The new Clé de Cartier watch launched at SIHH 2015 has a minimalist elegance and a harmonious design. Clé means “key” in French and the crown’s resemblance to one is unmistakable. The act of resetting the time and date introduces a new gesture to the world of watchmaking, one that recalls the traditional turning of a key to wind up a clock. Elongated and pure, it is adorned with a sapphire that is not set in a classical manner. Instead, it is ingeniously inserted to remain flush with the metal surrounding it.
Combining cutting-edge technology and in-depth expertise, the Clé de Cartier has a new in- house movement developed, produced and assembled by the craftsmen of the Cartier Manufacture in Switzerland. Its name — 1847 MC — pays homage to the year the Maison was founded. The incorporation of a particularly rapid barrel provides it with tremendous chronometric stability and the dual-direction winding automatic mechanism provides great durability via a specially designed lever system.
The Clé de Cartier is a watch for men and women. The men’s versions have a 40mm diameter and have a self-winding movement, caliber 1847MC, available in white gold and pink gold. The ladies versions are either in 31mm or 35mm diameter. The 35mm diameter versions (white gold with a diamond bezel or white gold and completely set with diamonds) have the same movement as the men’s version. The 31mm version is available in pink gold with a pink gold bracelet and a diamond studded bezel.
