Cartier Gondole horizontale in white gold with white dial, Roman numerals and black strap

The Cartier 97051 Gondole horizontale is pure 1970s elegance. It is one of the most classic and timeless models of the period, and an example in white gold, as here, is rare. I especially like the architecture of the case, with its cushion form, and the cleanly drawn dial.
