Cartier's Pasha, a refined round watch with global success


The first Pasha watch was presented by Cartier in 1985. The famous French jeweler then wanted to launch a sporty-chic model for men and women capable of competing with several renowned watch pieces released previously. The brand won its bet with flying colors: the Pasha became one of its most coveted round watches internationally. Its supposed origins will also contribute to reinforce its mythical aura in the following years: legend has it that the watch was inspired by a unique Cartier model made in 1933/34 for a Marrakech pasha named Thami El Glaoui. This famous timepiece had a round waterproof case and a grid to protect the glass of the dial, like the military watches of the First World War. However, it was not until 1985 that the Pasha was mass-produced and became a collection in its own right.

A collection enriched with several prestigious declinations


The 1985 Pasha watch is imagined by Gérald Genta, a famous watch designer who is responsible for the Royal Oak by Audemars Piguet or the Patek Philipe Nautilus. It immediately stands out from the other watches of the time thanks to its imposing 38 mm diameter case (which was exceptional in the luxury watch market at the time), "Vendôme" type lugs and an elegant crown protector with a blue sapphire cabochon linked to the case by a chain - a distinctive sign that can still be found on all the references in the collection. The Pasha watch is also attractive thanks to its oversized Arabic numerals and dials that are often guilloché with a square track in the center. A true bestseller of the House of Cartier, the Pasha will be available in many versions with complications. In 2020, the model makes its comeback in several sizes (35 and 41 mm), materials (yellow gold, steel) and finishes (diamond-set bezels or simply polished).
