The elongated Allongée (or Maxi Oval) version was developed in the 1960s, notably by Cartier’s London workshops, and was produced in very small numbers. In 1991 Cartier Paris reissued the large Allongée as a limited edition of 400 pieces. It is the largest version of the Baignoire Allongée issued in the 1991 series. The curved 18K yellow gold case encloses a silvered guilloché dial signed “Cartier Paris,” with elongated black Roman numerals and the house’s secret signature, and is powered by a manually wound Calibre 78-1. Its restricted production and oversized proportions make the Ref. W1507451 one of the rarer modern Cartier oval watches. The present example has been carefully preserved for more than 30 years by a Hong Kong-based lady collector and remains in excellent condition, with crisp and deep engravings and hallmarks on the caseback. It is accompanied by the original Cartier fitted box, certificate, and leaflet.
