Does anyone have a mini Panthère they could post a picture of? (Any metal) Would love to see what that size looks like! I've known for ages that a Panthère de Cartier is my dream watch. Can't afford it yet, but it's definitely happening at some point! Personally I'd be wearing it for fashion, not function, so I don't really care about a small face being difficult to read. I'm curious what the mini looks like on the wrist, though. Thanks in advance! :smile:

Hi! I bought two Cartier watches online and am about to purchase a third, so have been in the same place you are with that decision.

It’s been a crazy day so I’ve not been able to measure my medium panthere, but I’m medium bone structure with a 16 cm wrist. The medium size (I have the ss without diamonds) is a great everyday watch for me, but since I already have a medium ss TF that serves the same purpose, I wish I had chosen differently.

I’m now planning to purchase the small panthere with diamonds, still deciding between gold and ss. The small has a much dressier look than the medium (and would look great worn with a tennis bracelet!).

In the end it comes down to how you plan to wear it. If you’re going for an evening/dressy look then definitely stick with the small and consider the diamonds.

You’ll love shopping with Cartier online. I had outstanding experiences both times. If you find it’s not right for you, you can always return/exchange. I don’t regret getting the medium because I’ll alternate it with my TF for daily use, but if I could only buy one Panthere I would choose the small.

Hello LeilaCreates,
How are you doing? Happy Holidays!! I ended up trading in my ss w/diamonds for YG with diamonds recently. I love it and I must say that Cartier has the best YG!! Did you decide if you are going to get another Panthere?

Does anyone have a YG/SS panthere in small but with a larger wrist?

My love is a 17 (albeit on my other arm) and I’ve tried on the YG/SS in Med but the more I look at the pic the more I wonder if I’d like a small better. We don’t have a store where I live and I’m kicking myself for not trying on a small while I could.

I’m also 5 months pregnant so I just wonder if a smaller size might be better long term

I recommend looking at the small. I have the small SS with diamonds and love it. However, I did check out the medium for reference. Just my opinion….my husband and I both felt that the larger the watch went in size, the less impact it had. It almost seemed to look like any other watch at that point. I personally think its strength is in its daintiness.

“I personally think its strength is in its daintiness.”

I didn’t think of that but that is a good point! I think I’m just having a hard time because I’ve always felt like I’ve needed larger sizes for things in general (from clothes to bags) so I’m used to defaulting to it but I’m starting to realize that isn’t always the best choice.

Thanks for sharing :) if you have a photo of your small I’d love to see it.

For me, I think it depends on the jewelry you wear. For instance if you prefer large stacks (juc love plus maybe a third bracelet) then the medium size panthere on the rights side will balance with your left arm stack. While smaller stacks of one bracelet will look nice with the small panthere watch on the other arm. Also yiu wedding ring matters. I find larger rings look nicer with the medium size. Smaller rings look great with the small size.

Also a great point, thanks for sharing :) I don’t really wear anything on my left arm so if I do get the Panthere, it would be the first thing on that side. I think my ring is probably more suited to the SM than Med, so it’s something for me to think about.
