Brand profile: Cartier
Cartier watches (Santos, Tank, Ballon Bleu) are popular targets for counterfeiters. The distinctive design (Roman numerals, blue sword hands) is recognizable — but also easy to copy.
Key authenticity features
- Sapphire cabochon crown: on genuine pieces it's SET INTO THE METAL (bezel-set); on fakes it's usually GLUED. Test: loupe — adhesive residue around the edge = fake.
- Bracelet screws: genuine Cartier bracelets ALWAYS have visible screw slots. Pins instead = fake.
- 'Swiss Made' at 6 o'clock: MICROPRINTED directly beneath the 6 o'clock marker. Fakes often omit it or print it crooked.
- Guilloché pattern: under 10x magnification, EXACTLY parallel and uniformly deep. Irregularities = fake.
Serial number format: Cartier serial numbers: alphanumeric, on the case back. Older models: number located between the crystal ring and the case. New purchases come with a Cartier passport.
