Cartier - Cartier Movado Ermeto Sterling Silver from 1929
This exceptional Movado Hermeto pocket watch, signed Cartier on the dial, showcases a striking radium dial featuring classic Arabic numerals and elegant cathedral hands, radiating 6.1 CPS with the Geiger Meter.
The watch is encased in a beautiful blue enamel sterling silver case, which proudly bears the original and early Huguenin Frères hallmarks, confirming its authentic Swiss craftsmanship. Additionally, it carries the distinctive German export hallmarks, underscoring its early international distribution.
The Hermeto design dates back to 1926, a collaboration between the Swiss case maker Huguenin Frères and Movado, and quickly gained acclaim—winning the Grand Prix at the 1929 Barcelona International Exposition. This model represents the “Normal” size, a versatile unisex design prized for its elegance and functionality.
