While the majority of watches still stick to traditional hour and minute hands to display the time, Cartier has boldly used their technical prowess to find innovative methods to indicate time. The present Rotonde de Cartier model displays the hour in a window and indicates the minutes by means of a turning disk. Maintaining a simplistic and clean time display feature, the wearer would be able to admire the beautiful guilloché centerfield on the dial.
