Cartier Tortue Monopoursoir 2396 Cartier Leather Strap Chronograph

The Tortue Monopoly is Cartier's first chronograph. This is a compact watch with dimensions of 25mm x 35mm, equipped with a traditional column wheel timing movement with a horizontal clutch. It has a very slim bezel and matte dial with block Roman numerals, chemist de fer minute tracks, and flame blue Breguet hands. The production of this watch is very limited, and the original Tortue single button that appears at auctions is extremely rare. It is estimated that only 11 examples have appeared so far.
