About Leather Strap Watches: Cartier Pasha de Cartier
The Pasha de Cartier was originally conceived in the 1980s as a water-resistant dress watch defined by its round case, screwed crown cover, and integrated crown chain, giving it an unmistakable silhouette within the Cartier catalog. Across decades the reference has been issued in a wide range of case metals, sizes, and complications, making it equally at home on a deployant alligator strap as on a metal bracelet. The leather and alligator leather strap versions in this collection highlight the watch's naturally dressy character, pairing rich case materials such as 18k rose gold and 18k yellow gold with supple straps for a refined, wrist-flattering result. Silver dials appear consistently across the line, providing crisp legibility that reads as quintessentially Cartier.
What to Look For
Buyers should pay close attention to case size and movement type: the 30mm quartz references such as WJPA0017 and WGPA0018 are sized for women and include a diamond-set option, while the 41mm and 42mm automatic references such as WHPA0009, W3108555, W3019951, and W3019351 target men seeking mechanical movement performance. The full calendar moonphase reference WGPA0022 in 18k yellow gold commands the greatest complication complexity in this grouping and is among the most collectible Pasha configurations, making case metal, dial condition, and box-and-papers completeness especially important value drivers.
