Ferrari Formula Cartier watch

I've seen the second one on ebay before and it usually gets upwards of $100US but not much more than that. I've never seen the first one though.

 

when did cartier make ferrari watches? i thought girard perregaux had that license wrapped up tight?

doody.

 

These watches were indeed made in the eighties. There were a hole bunch of different designs. I once bought one off ebay, but can't remember the price I paid, was somewhere 400-600 US$.

They are kinda rare and as an owner of a 84 Ferrari I found it fitting to have the watch that "comes with it". I also got the catalog for all of them and in the background is a Mondial.

 

Is the one with red face silver with gold or titanium with gold?
I can't really tell from the picture on my screen.
(I'd assume the former; but it looks more like the latter on my screen.)

 

I don't know these watches but would say that the value will be heavily influenced by the type of movement, are they quartz or mechanical/automatic ?

 

They are quartz. I bought a white/silver 3 dial chronograph with the gray shark skin band.

New in 1987, $675US but it also came with the reprinted Piloti Che Gente (expanded version) with the color photo of Enzo himself in the mirror overlooking the 335S that Peter Collins drives on the other version of this book.

Cartier did not make the movement but it was another Swiss company that I cannot recall. Mine still works but it takes a brave jeweler to attack the 17 point hex back to open it!

Like the car, you have to go in search of the "essential man" LOL!

 

That's way too much for a quartz watch. Quartz watches ate disposable and not the choice of watch lovers. I do have a Ferrari signature watch by Cartier with an automatic movement that I paid $1500.00 about 10 years ago.

 

The fact it's electric would mean it's quartz right? I guess I have to look at it or ask the hippie that works on it!

Well, of course it was too much! I bought it at the Houston Galleria, right next to Tiffany's and Nieman Marcus (Needless Markup). NM now has a Schedoni outlet, where we pay too much for luggage! LOL!

Now, that I recall, I got the Book, the watch, and a 1:18 Bburago '57 TR.
I was in the mall to retrieve my furs from refrigerated storage at Sakowitz.

I thought it was an average deal, not a good deal.

I know your a pretty sharp shopper, Frank. Can you find me some factory luggage for my 308GTB?? Thanks!

 

You coming to the 2004 Pirelli Classic in New Orleans?

 

I'll give you $100 for the one with the leather band!

 

I think he was looking for the 900E, Jim. Plus or minus.

You are too much "Minus" LOL!

 

Speedy, I found luggage for my 328, TR, 348 and Boxer all by placing "Luggage Wanted" ads in the Ferrari Market Letter.

 

Ahhhhhhh, very fine. I'll PM Carbon McCoy, our "insider" on that. Thanks.

The factory wants 3,800 Euro, and the dollar is still sliding!!!

 

Watch my "Road trip" thread in GFD this weekend. I'll be posting pics of my cross country drive.

I ran across some guys in Phoenix, AZ last Monday prepping for Monterey.

VERY INTERESTING collection of cars that day at the track.

250LM, 275GTB Lightweight, Lister Jag, D Type Jag, Shelby Daytona, and a Lotus F1 Jim Clark.

They were all running them and having a great time. They let us hang out a while.

...back to watches....

 

They do not really do anything for me.
