On our way to this year’s Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie, (SIHH), which kicks off on Monday at Geneva’s Palexpo Event Center, WatchTime made a first stop in Paris to see the Cartier Style and History exhibition at the Grand Palais. (Cartier will be one of the 16 luxury watch brands exhibiting at the SIHH.) The exhibition includes more than 600 pieces of jewelry, objects, watches and clocks. Here are some quick images from the show.
