Brand profile: Cartier
Cartier watches (Santos, Tank, Ballon Bleu) are popular counterfeiting targets. The characteristic design (Roman numerals, blue sword hands) is recognizable, but also replicable.
- Sapphire cabochon crown: on genuine pieces SET IN METAL (bezel setting), on fakes usually GLUED. Test: loupe — adhesive residue around the edge = fake.
- Bracelet screws: genuine Cartier ALWAYS has visible screw slots. Pins = fake.
- 'Swiss Made' at 6 o'clock: MICROPRINT directly below the 6 o'clock marker. Fakes often omit it or print it crooked.
- Guilloché pattern: under 10x loupe EXACTLY parallel and uniformly deep. Irregularities = fake.
Serial number format: Cartier serial numbers: alphanumeric on the case back. Older models: number between the crystal ring and case. Cartier Passport included with new purchase.
