Cartier Pasha de Cartier 35mm

About This Watch

The Cartier Pasha de Cartier 35mm, relaunched in 2020, brings a fresh perspective to one of Cartier's most characterful round watch designs. Originally created in 1985 and inspired by a watch made for the Pasha of Marrakech in the 1930s, the Pasha is distinguished by its unique design elements: a square minute track within a round case, a screwed-down crown cover connected to the case by a chain, and luminous Arabic numerals at the cardinal points. The 2020 relaunch refined these elements while introducing modern touches including the SmartLink quick-adjust bracelet and QuickSwitch interchangeable strap system. The 35mm size positions this as a unisex option, particularly appealing to those who prefer a more modest case diameter. The blue dial adds a contemporary touch to the classical Pasha design, creating an eye-catching contrast with the stainless steel case. The in-house caliber 1847 MC provides reliable automatic winding with 42 hours of power reserve. The crown protector — that distinctive chain-linked cap — is now smoother and more refined than in previous generations. At 100 meters water resistance, the Pasha is significantly more water-resistant than most Cartier watches, reflecting its origins as a swimming watch. The Pasha 35mm represents Cartier's more adventurous side, offering personality and distinctiveness that the more classical Santos or Tank cannot match.
