The present lot amply epitomizes the wondrous creativity of the luxury watchmaker and jeweler Cartier. The dragon is one of the most ancient and sacred cultural symbols in China, signifying Chinese heritage, tradition and civilization. Painted against a backdrop of red wave-like pattern, the roaring dragon, with diamond-set eyes, is depicted with fve claws. Historically, the fve-clawed dragon motif is reserved for emperors only, further emphasizing the grandeur and majesty of this timepiece. The diamond-set bezel further bestows the present timepiece with a luxurious aura that is evident to all. Launched in 2012 - the year of Dragon - the present lot ofers the perfect union of Occidental horological fnesse and Oriental design philosophy. The present lot is numbered 100 of a limited edition of 100 examples, and is by all means an extravagant and culturally signifcant timepiece.
