Cartier Roadster: A Look at Cartier’s Discontinued Sports Watch
The Cartier Roadster has an iconic look of a tonneau-shaped case (tonneau means “barrel” in French), a shape that was used by Cartier around 1906. It was inspired by sports cars from the 1960s. It became a popular sport and dress watch.
Moving on to the star of the show, the Cartier Roadster was launched in the early 2000s. It was one of the youngest models in Cartier’s timepiece portfolio, but it is also among the most well-known watches they’ve released. Spoiler alert for those who are not aware yet, the Cartier Roadster was discontinued by the brand back in 2012. However, there are still pieces out there, mostly pre-owned, that you can check out if you find yourself interested in the collection by the end of this article.
There are plenty of size choices within the Cartier Roadster line. The Cartier Roadster series included watches for both men and women. Sizes range from small women’s models to XL sizes with cases measuring around 43mm–and plenty in between. As expected, the Cartier Roadster is available in different materials including steel, yellow gold, and two-tone steel and gold. There are also opulent gold and diamond versions of the Roadster watch review.
In addition to the time and date versions of the Roadster, Cartier also made Roadster Chronograph editions and Roadster GMT mode.

1. Cartier Roadster Automatic Chronograph 2618 (W62019X6)
This 2012 Cartier Roadster Chronograph watch is very similar to the first one mentioned in this selection. It comes in a stainless steel case paired with a bracelet of the same material. The dial follows the ever-distinct car-inspired pattern and sub-dials for the chronograph, protected by a sapphire crystal. It also features large Roman numerals and luminescent hands. One notable difference is that this model does not include a magnifying glass for the date component at 3 o’clock. Lastly, this Cartier Roadster Automatic, priced at over USD 6,800, has a water-resistance of up to 100 metres.

Calfskin Strap For Cartier Roadster
Calfskin or calf leather is a leather or membrane produced from the hide of a calf, or juvenile domestic cattle. Calfskin is particularly valuable because of its softness and fine grain, as well as its durability. It is commonly used for high-quality clothing, shoes, wallets, and similar products, as well as traditional leather bookbindings. In these contexts, just "calf" is commonly used. Fine calfskin is one of the skins used for vellum and parchment manuscripts.

Canvas Watch Band For Cartier Roadster
The canvas watch strap has been in fashion for hundreds of years. Thanks to new technologies, now we can enjoy canvas watch straps in various sizes, shapes, colors, functionalities, and price ranges.
- Canvas is a much lighter and easier-to-carry fabric than leather.
- Canvas durability comes from the fact that canvas is a plain-woven fabric that provides strength and sturdiness. The canvas fibers flex and adjust with the weight and size of the items you place inside.
- Canvas is eco-friendly and this is very important in a world more and more concerned with saving the planet and not using animals for fashion.
