Baignoire Étoilée 43.65mm

How it wears

Wears smaller than its 43.65 mm case suggests

Cartier Baignoire Étoilée 43.65mm measures 20.11 mm lug-to-lug on a 43.65 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 0.46 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 100% of the 7,421 watches in this database and shorter than 99% of the 196 Cartier watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 23 mm (0.91 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 27 mm (1.06 in) it starts to look compact. Below 20.11 mm (0.79 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
