Based loosely on the first circular dial introduced by Cartier in 1943, the Cartier Pasha collection traces its roots back to old military watches designed to withstand a range of challenging conditions. This made the Pasha among the earliest water resistant wristwatches on the market, supposedly designed to fulfil the Pasha of Marrakech’s request for a watch he could wear in the pool. The Cartier Pasha Seatimer is of course the logical conclusion of this legacy, a durable and dependable watch designed for seafaring souls and underwater explorers.

Initially designed with a protective grid similar to army watches of the time, the Pasha was made for active men, although women too quickly embraced this desirable timepiece that prizes pure functionality. This grid-like feature can still be found as a decorative addition to some examples of the Pasha watch today. In addition to this, each model found within the Pasha collection features a screw down cap attached by a small chain, elegant sword-shaped hands, and classical Arabic numerals as standard.
