Our View

The Panthère remains one of Cartier’s most enduring designs, combining elegance, comfort and unmistakable Parisian style. Vintage examples continue to grow in popularity, particularly the early two-tone references that perfectly capture the glamour of the period.

This single-row gold version is especially desirable, offering a more subtle and refined appearance than later multi-row variations. The outstanding bracelet condition is a particular highlight, as stretch is often the biggest issue on vintage Panthère models.

For under £4,000, this represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a genuine Cartier icon in superb condition and with all the charm that only a vintage example can offer.
