Q: What is the Cartier La Dona de Cartier 22mm Ref. 2902? A: This is a distinctive quartz timepiece from Cartier’s La Doña collection, crafted in stainless steel. It features a unique 22mm trapezoidal case, a cream-coloured dial with Roman numerals, and blued-steel sword hands. The watch dates to circa 2015 and comes as a full set with its original box and outer box.
Q: What is the inspiration behind the La Doña design? A: The collection was created in honour of the legendary Mexican actress and loyal Cartier client, María Félix, known as "La Doña." The watch’s bold, asymmetrical shape mimics the head of a crocodile, while the integrated bracelet links are designed to resemble reptilian scales, paying tribute to Félix’s famous pet crocodile and her bespoke commissions from the Maison.
Q: Is the movement quartz or automatic? A: The Reference 2902 is powered by a precision Swiss quartz movement. This ensures accurate timekeeping and ease of use, with a battery life typically lasting between 2 to 3 years before needing replacement.
Q: Does it have a sapphire crystal? A: Yes, this model is fitted with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. It is slightly curved to follow the unique profile of the case, protecting the dial while maintaining the watch’s fluid lines.
Q: Will this watch fit my wrist? A: The watch is currently sized to fit a wrist circumference of up to 16cm. The bracelet links can be removed by a professional to size it down for a smaller fit. Please note that no additional links are listed with this set, so we recommend verifying your wrist size prior to purchase.
Q: Is the watch water-resistant? A: Originally rated to 30 metres, this is a pre-owned piece from circa 2015. We cannot guarantee the original water resistance without a fresh pressure test. We advise treating it as splash-resistant only and avoiding swimming or showering while wearing it.
Q: What is the condition of this specific piece? A: The watch is in Very Good condition with light traces of use. You can expect visible scratches on the stainless steel case and bracelet, which are consistent with careful wear. Please review the product images for a detailed view of its condition.
Q: What is included with the purchase? A: This La Doña comes as a rare "full set," which includes the original Cartier box and outer box. It does not list original papers, but the provenance is backed by our authentication process.
Q: How do you guarantee authenticity and warranty? A: A Retro Tale rigorously inspects and authenticates every item. We guarantee 100% originality and provide a 12-month warranty covering the mechanical function of the movement. We also offer a 14-day return policy for your peace of mind.
