How old were you when you got your first Cartier piece?

Twenty-two! The pic shows me at that age in Milan in the early eighties, with my first love bracelet! (OMG, now everyone knows that I'm already stone old - lol)

Wow, you look the coolest, and I'm sure nothing has changed there.

This photo is literally like a movie still of a leading actress.
 
@papertiger and @MaggyH,
Ladies thank you so much but don't get too excited about photos from 40 years ago. It's not that difficult to look good in your twenties. I'd say up to 50 it's more a matter of discipline. Beyond that, it gets really tough. Since I'm not too big a fan of surgery, I accept the slow decline and learn to live with my wrinkles. So don't expect miracles, current photos of me would just show an old lady more!
 
I was 16 when my grandmother handed me down her trinity ring which I still wear to this day.

The first purchase that I ever made from Cartier with my own money that I earned was when I was 24.
It was my first big bonus payout from wall street in the early 90s and I bought a ballon de cartier watch and now my daughter wears it.
