Restoration of Cartier Roadster

Restoration of Cartier Roadster

Today I will restore a Cartier Roadster Automatic.
Launched in the early 2000s, and discontinued in 2012, the Cartier Roadster belongs to the most well-known series Cartier has ever released. It was inspired by automobiles, the watches were based on certain vintage automotive parts which reflect a sense of nostalgia. The timepieces came in different case and bracelet materials, namely steel, gold and two-toned.
Being a luxury timepiece, the Cartier Roadster is equally versatile and sporty, and features the company’s distinct use of defined shapes for their cases.

This particular watch is heavily used and shows massive scratches. I try to bring it back to its original beauty.

Enjoy watching 😊
