Dalla forma al movimento, dalla perfetta fattura alla preziosità dei materiali, gli orologi Cartier sono assolutamente unici e inconfondibili: una sapiente e costante combinazione di classico e moderno, estro e perfezione. Questo libro racconta la perenne ricerca dell'eccellenza che contraddistingue la produzione degli orologi Cartier. Da un cronografo monopulsante Tortue, creato nel 1929, al contemporaneo Santos 100 scheletrato, Cartier interpreta la complessità dell'orologeria con il suo stile inimitabile, mai privo di un tocco di design. Le fotografie di Laziz Hamani catturano questi oggetti dalla tecnica eccezionale, mentre l'autore dei testi, l'esperto Jack Forster, descrive lo spirito che motiva ogni singolo artigiano, tecnico e artista a creare gli orologi complicati più strabilianti in assoluto. Un tributo alle creazioni di Cartier attraverso circa 300 fotografie di pezzi unici, molti dei quali inediti. "Cartier time art" accompagna la grande mostra internazionale itinerante, curata dal progettista giapponese Tokujin Yoshioka, che avrà come prima tappa il Museo Bellerive a Zurigo, da agosto a novembre 2011.
