One of the most iconic collection of the maison, the Cartier Crash incorporates the abstract nature of time to its asymmetrical case. Created in 1967, it was perhaps inspired by a damaged Baignoire, or by Salvador Dali’s masterpiece - The Melting Watch. Breaking through the traditional shapes of watches, the Cartier Crash is a true innovator of watch design and is extremely popular on the market today and has increased in value tremendously in recent years.
