Cartier Vendome 17003 Paris 18k 1980s

Cartier Vendôme “PARIS” Ref. 17003 – Louis Cartier Collection Classic

The Cartier Vendôme is one of the twelve original models of the Louis Cartier Collection, introduced in the 1970s to celebrate the maison’s historic designs. This example is from a renewed series from the 1980s and features the desirable “PARIS” signed dial, indicating it was originally retailed through a Cartier boutique in Paris or London.

Crafted in 18k yellow gold, the watch showcases the elegant 33 mm Vendôme case with its distinctive stepped bezel and signature cabochon crown. The clean white MK2 Paris dial is paired with classic Cartier sword hands, which have aged into a unique golden copper tone over the decades.

Powered by the Cartier Cal. 2670 automatic movement, this piece combines timeless Cartier design with refined mechanical reliability.
