A rare expression of Cartier’s design experimentation, the Centiure Centaur captures a period where the maison pushed beyond traditional forms into architectural watchmaking. Defined by its stepped square-to-octagonal silhouette and executed in the iconic Trinity of three golds, this piece represents Cartier as a sculptor of time—where geometry and precious metal converge into wearable art.
This example is particularly significant for its full 18K Trinity gold construction—rose, yellow, and white gold layered within a single case, a signature Cartier motif rarely seen in such structural execution. From the now-discontinued Centiure line, pieces like this are increasingly scarce and appeal to collectors seeking non-mainstream Cartier references with strong design identity. The original emerald green strap further enhances its visual contrast and collectibility. With secondary market asking prices ranging from SGD10,500–13,000 and limited circulation, this represents a niche but compelling acquisition for those who value rarity and form over ubiquity.

We see the Centiure Centaur as Cartier at its most exploratory—less about convention, more about form and presence. The Trinity execution within a stepped architectural case is a quiet reminder of the maison’s ability to innovate beyond its icons. For collectors who gravitate toward the uncommon and design-driven, this is the kind of piece that stands apart without needing to announce itself.
