The Cartier Must de Colisée captures a distinct era where Cartier translated its high jewellery design language into accessible, design-led timepieces. Defined by its elegant oval case and Roman numeral dial, this vintage 90s piece reflects the maison’s Parisian aesthetic—refined, feminine, and unmistakably Cartier. It represents a period where form took centre stage, resulting in silhouettes that remain timeless decades later.
 
This example stands out with its rare camel “milk tea” toned original Cartier strap, a subtle yet highly sought-after variation that elevates its overall warmth and wearability. As a discontinued model from the 1990s, the Colisée is becoming increasingly scarce, especially in well-preserved condition with original components intact. The quartz movement ensures practicality, while the inclusion of its original box adds to its collectibility. For those seeking a vintage Cartier with distinctive character beyond the Tank or Santos, this is a compelling find.
 
WLCSG curator note :
The Colisée is one of those under-the-radar Cartier shapes that seasoned collectors quietly appreciate. It doesn’t rely on mainstream recognition—instead, it wins on proportion, detail, and rarity of configuration. The original strap in this tone alone is hard to come by, making this piece feel more complete than most that surface today.
