Cartier Ronde de Cartier Ronde Louis 36mm

How it wears

Wears true to its 36 mm case size

Cartier Ronde de Cartier Ronde Louis 36mm measures 42 mm lug-to-lug on a 36 mm case, a lug-to-lug ratio of 1.17 against a database median of 1.18. That span is shorter than 86% of the 8,010 watches in this database and shorter than 39% of the 196 Cartier watches listed.

A flat wrist width of 47 mm (1.85 in) or more keeps it in the balanced range, and from 56 mm (2.20 in) it starts to look compact. Below 42 mm (1.65 in) the lugs are likely to overhang the wrist. Flat wrist width is measured straight across the top of the wrist, not around it.
