The Cartier Declaration watch takes inspiration from one of the favorite Cartier bracelets of Gloria Swanson, one of the biggest movie stars of the 1920s. The said pair of bracelets were formed by several rings made of rock and crystal and their distinctive bombé silhouette captured the glamour of Hollywood’s golden age. Cartier looked back on these bracelets when creating the Declaration watch in 2004 translating the concept into a timepiece with mobile rings that conceal and reveal the dial. The reference 2611 represents this innovative design approach, combining jewelry artistry with horological function through its jalousie mechanism. The case construction combines stainless steel and titanium, measuring 16mm in width and 34.5mm in length. The case exhibits minimal wear and remains in pristine condition, showing only light traces consistent with careful ownership.

The caseback secures firmly to the case body via four screws and bears the correct serial number and manufacturer markings. Four round-cut diamonds are set at the case top, while a sliding ring in 18-karat pink gold with diamond pavé setting moves freely around the case perimeter. The sapphire crystal is in perfect condition without scratches or distortion. The original silvered dial has a sunburst guilloché texture radiating from the center, creating depth through its geometric pattern. Blued steel sword hands provide high contrast against the silvered background. The dial is in pristine condition with no discoloration, moisture damage, or deterioration of the Cartier signature. The quartz movement provides reliable timekeeping without manual winding requirements. The original fabric strap is in good condition, fitted with the matching folding steel clasp. Following complete in-house servicing, the movement performs accurately. This timepiece includes a twelve-month mechanical guarantee and certificate of authenticity. The Declaration reference 2611 represents Cartier’s ability to merge jewelry design heritage with contemporary watchmaking. Worldwide shipping available. Serious inquiries welcomed.
