Product Description
The Cartier Roadster Chronograph ref. 2618 stands as one of Cartier’s most distinctive early-2000s sport-luxury designs pairing the House’s traditional elegance with a bold, automotive-inspired case profile. The polished tonneau case features flowing curves, integrated crown guard, and Cartier’s unmistakable Roman-numeral dial execution, framed beneath a sapphire crystal with the signature magnified date window.
The black dial delivers strong contrast and timeless legibility, with luminous sword-style hands and three recessed chronograph registers arranged in a balanced tri-compax layout. The automatic Cartier chronograph movement provides reliable operation, smooth reset action, and steady amplitude, reinforced by the model’s solid case construction.
Condition is excellent, with crisp case lines, clean surfaces, and a well-preserved dial and crystal. The watch was recently serviced by The Watch Guru in Hackensack, NJ, with complete documentation and pressure-test results shown in the photos. Mechanically, the watch performs properly, and the chronograph engages and resets as it should.
Included are the Cartier presentation box, OEM black strap, OEM Cartier deployant clasp, extra bracelet links, and accessories offering a thorough package without being a full factory set. A strong, investment-friendly Roadster Chronograph with documented service and excellent overall presentation.
