Exhibit celebrates 100 years of watch design

Cartier displays more than a hundred years of artistry and craftsmanship in timekeeping with the Cartier Time Art show in Shanghai.

It will be the first time for Cartier to present Metiers d' art - a group of complex crafts that often date back to ancient times - in the Cartier Time Art exhibition. Visitors will have the chance to appreciate master craftwork such as marquetry, mosaics, engraving and enameling.

For lovers of timepieces who are keen to explore how Cartier watches are made, the Cartier Time Art is an opportunity that should not be missed this summer.

There will be live demonstrations by watchmakers and artisans every month for visitors to discover the beauty and mystery of timekeeping.

Designed as a journey into the heart of watch-making, the exhibition presents the public with the creativity involved in capturing what happens in the blink of an eye, and celebrates the universal and eternal values reflected by artistic timepieces."This exhibition is like a trip through time and presents more than a century of Cartier's rich heritage, design philosophy and aesthetic accomplishments in watch-making," said Pierre Rainero, image, style and heritage director of Cartier.

"I hope that everybody who is interested can visit the exhibition in person to experience the unique glamour of the art of time," he added.
