SIHH 2015: Cartier invents a revolutionary new setting, making the diamonds scintillate

With the invention of a revolutionary setting, Cartier starts a new chapter of its watchmaking and jewelry history.
Inspired by  the so-called “trembling setting” introduced at the end of the 19th century, enabling Cartier to let its diamonds move freely without restraint, this years’ SIHH marks the unveiling of the ground-breaking Vibrating Setting.
The Vibrating Setting is truly revolutionary: Cartier has made several patent applications for this ingenious invisible system which brings precious stones to life and makes the diamonds gleam and pulsate, scintillating on the wrist like never before.
Introduced in a magical version of the Ballon Bleu de Cartier watch, it is designed to reveal the energy within the diamonds, sparkling with brilliance and radiating a gentle softness. The effect is amazing, like a wave of light in a constant state of change. It is the magical feeling of wearing a piece of living jewellery that throbs with the natural vibrations of the diamonds.

This captivating version of the Ballon Bleu de Cartier watch is fitted with the extra-thin movement 430 MC.
