The Cartier Paris Collection Privée (CPCP) has gained a strong and well-deserved recognition in the recent years. These pieces are among the most sought-after watches on today's market.

The Reference 2689 was produced in pink gold as a limited edition of 150 pieces only. Housed in the distinctive Tortue case, the dial has its indexes and "chemin de fer" minute track following the lines of the case. The date is displayed at 12 o'clock with a small arrow underneath for a maximum of readability. At 6 o'clock, a slightly recessed fan-form aperture indicates the power reserve. The rest of the dial is beautifully guilloché and bears the rose to its center. This motif was likely inspired by some vintage Cartier clocks.

The back of the watch has a sapphire display back revealing the complicated movement that has been decorated with the famous double C signature.

Very few of these rare pieces appear on the market, especially when they are accompanied by their original presentation case and certificate, as the present piece.
