Cartier Panthère (Panther) Steel Quartz Mini WSPN0006 Ladies Review from InTime

[axel.gold]

Per request from the Cartier Tank Solo review, I purchased the Cartier Panthère (Panther) Steel Quartz Mini (25mm x 21mm) WSPN0006 from InTime for $228 USD for my wife. The watch normally retails for $4,750 CAD and built by factory 8848F.

The watch is very very small and according to my wife, should be sized to wear loose like a bracelet shown below.

Note, my wife is a watch enthusiast herself, with a very discerning eye... and she is impressed with the watch! I would strongly recommend this watch or the smaller Cartier Tank Solo for Valentines, your girl's birthday or for Mother's day. This watch is going to my Mom who does not wear watches to get her into the hobby.

We don't have a gen to compare against, but I recall seeing it in the store and feels it felt the same. Quartz timing as expected is very accurate.

Though my wife prefers mechanical, she's happy with quartz here. In her opinion, quartz allows the Panthère to be super thin to allow the watch to be worn more like jewelry. This was also a great way to test out the watch as I'll be surprising my wife with the gen for Valentines.

Again - very nice short review. The pictures are indeed pretty neat. But the watch is too

didn‘t know that the panthere looks this small even on a woman’s wrist. Like you said it is obviously meant tobe more jewelry than a watch in general.

Decent - even if there are inaccuracies compared to the gen - which i‘m not aware of - this watch looks well finished and so small compared to a 42mm offshore were the tells jump right into your face

thanks for your time!

Thanks for the great introduction to women's selections.I (and my wife) have been waited

She can't make up her mind between SS and RG.

Will post an update!

I’m glad your wife is an enthusiast and gave you such clear remarks for us all. If only all our significant others would be the same!

Great review.

Actually our first choice was the Rose Gold, but at the time I was not sure if the gold plating would be authentic looking. However, the Cartier Rose Gold Solo is spot on. Keep in mind that there is also a huge retail price difference on the gens,

Mini Steel = $4,750
Mini Rose Gold = $25,400

So knowing what I know now, I would suggest you get the Mini Rose Gold. More unlikely for other women to be wearing. Or for the price of the reps, save on shipping and buy both!

Whatever you pick, let us know!

Yes. Based on your Gen vs. Rep comparison, RG plating seems to be good enough.

The only concern is that gen is too expensive to own.

I might end up with getting two pieces. Will update you if I have a chance to compare SS vs RG.

Thanks for this! I love Cartier

 

[Robin.Hood]

axel.brass I think we are getting both SS and RG lol.
By the way, this is small size, not mini

 

[axel.gold]

Robin.Hood you are correct. I measured (pictures below) and the Panthère is not a mini WSPN0019 but instead a small WSPN0006 measuring pretty close to the published website specs of 22mm x 30mm, thickness: 6 mm.

Excited to see the RG!

My measurements came out to 22.03mm x 30.02mm with thickness of 16.3mm. I also measured in the "inside height" of the square to be 19.27mm.

I'll get a hold of a moderator and hopefully be able to change the original post or may just restart the post.

Based on axel.brass pics and this comparison pics I think it's a super rep.

Beautiful, thank you.
Your revie helped my wife and I to make our choice.

I absolutely love this review!! Thank you and your wife so much for the photos and the comments. I am now debating between the small Panthère or the small Tank Francaise

 

[jmc512]

Oh one more question, I'm thinking of ordering from InTime and am planning on just using my credit card. Is that the best way?

 

[SKnight]

@axel.brass Mate thanks to your reviews I've ordered the Panthere and the Tank solo in RG!
