Pasha de Cartier Watches in Sydney
At Kalmar Antiques in Sydney’s Queen Victoria Building, gemmologist Damien Kalmar FGAA Dip DT and horologist Lorenzo Del Rosso source exceptional Cartier Pasha watches through a worldwide network of collectors, estates and trusted dealers. Every Cartier Pasha de Cartier watch we display is selected for authenticity, originality, condition and long-term wearability.
The Pasha de Cartier is one of Cartier’s most distinctive round watch families. With its crown cap, chained detail, strong case geometry and confident wrist presence, Cartier’s Pasha de Cartier offers a sportier alternative to the Tank, Panthère and Santos while still carrying the refinement expected from the Maison.
Pasha de Cartier Heritage and Design
The Pasha de Cartier watch is widely associated with Cartier’s search for a round, water-ready luxury watch with more presence than the Maison’s traditional dress pieces. The recognised Pasha de Cartier line arrived in 1985, drawing attention through a bold circular case, Arabic numerals, a square minute track and the signature screw-down crown cap attached by a small chain.
That mix of elegance and utility is what makes the Cartier Pasha watch so recognisable. It is round rather than rectangular, assertive rather than delicate, and architectural without losing Cartier’s jewellery-house polish. For collectors who already know the Tank or Santos, the Pasha Cartier offers a different kind of Cartier confidence.
Cartier Pasha Models and Variations
Pasha de Cartier watches cover a broad range of references, from compact steel automatics to gold, diamond-set, GMT, chronograph and sportier Seatimer models. The strongest examples are judged by condition, originality, movement health, bracelet fit, crown-cap integrity and how naturally the case sits on the wrist.

Men’s Pasha de Cartier and Women’s Cartier Pasha Styles
The Pasha de Cartier mens watch market is led by references with enough case presence to feel substantial without becoming excessive. A Pasha de Cartier mens watch can sit more assertively than a Tank Louis or Santos-Dumont, while still looking refined with tailoring, knitwear or weekend dress.
For women, the Cartier Pasha has a different appeal. Smaller Pasha C, Miss Pasha and diamond-set references carry the same round architecture in more compact proportions. A women’s Cartier Pasha can feel sporty, polished and jewellery-adjacent, especially in gold, diamond or bracelet-led formats.
Pasha Cartier Watch Price and Buying Considerations
Pasha Cartier watch price varies according to reference, material, movement, condition, bracelet completeness and current market demand. Steel Pasha C models usually sit at a more accessible level, while Cartier Pasha gold, diamond-set, chronograph, GMT and Seatimer references tend to command stronger prices when originality and condition are excellent.
When comparing any Cartier Pasha watch price, the cheapest example is rarely the safest. Over-polished cases, stretched bracelets, tired movements, missing crown-cap details and refinished dials can all affect long-term value. At Kalmar Antiques, each Pasha de Cartier watch is assessed as an individual object rather than priced from model name alone.

Pasha de Cartier Watches FAQs
What is the Pasha de Cartier?
The Pasha de Cartier is a round Cartier luxury watch family first recognised in its modern form in 1985. It is known for its chained crown cap, strong circular case, distinctive dial layout and sportier attitude within Cartier watchmaking. The Cartier Pasha sits apart from rectangular icons such as the Tank and Santos, offering a bolder alternative while retaining the Maison’s refinement.
Is the Cartier Pasha watch still made?
Yes, Pasha de Cartier remains part of Cartier’s broader watch language, although many earlier references are now only available through the pre-owned and vintage market. Current Cartier production and vintage Pasha references should be treated separately, because size, movement, materials and market behaviour vary significantly between eras.
What affects Pasha Cartier watch price?
Pasha Cartier watch price is influenced by metal, size, movement, condition, service history and reference scarcity. Steel Pasha C models are often more accessible, while Cartier Pasha gold, diamond grille, GMT, chronograph and Pasha de Cartier Seatimer references usually sit higher when well preserved. Bracelet condition and originality can make a major difference.
Is the Pasha de Cartier a men’s watch?
The collection is worn by men and women, but many larger references are regularly chosen as men’s Pasha de Cartier watches. A Pasha de Cartier mens watch has more round-case presence than a slim Tank, which makes it suitable for collectors who want a stronger Cartier profile without moving into conventional sports-watch territory.
Is there a women’s Cartier Pasha?
Yes. A women’s Cartier Pasha may include Miss Pasha, smaller Pasha C references, diamond-set models or compact gold editions. These watches keep the crown-cap signature and round case design, but wear with a softer scale. For many collectors, the best choice depends on wrist size, bracelet fit, dial condition and whether the watch is intended for daily wear or jewellery-led styling.
What is the Pasha de Cartier Seatimer?
The Pasha de Cartier Seatimer is one of the sportier Pasha variations. It is usually recognised by its stronger bezel treatment, bolder dial details and more robust character compared with dressier Pasha references. For collectors who find the Tank too formal and the Santos too angular, the Seatimer gives the Pasha family a more active visual identity.
What should I check before buying a pre-owned Cartier Pasha?
Check the crown cap, chain, case edges, bracelet stretch, dial printing, movement condition, serial details and service history. A pre-owned Cartier Pasha watch can look correct at first glance while still carrying later replacement parts or heavy polishing. Specialist inspection is especially important for gold, diamond-set and chronograph references.
How does the Pasha compare with the Santos?
The Santos is square, aviation-linked and defined by exposed screws. The Pasha is round, water-inspired and distinguished by its crown cap and chained detail. The Santos often feels more architectural, while Cartier’s Pasha de Cartier feels bolder and more sculptural. Choosing between them comes down to wrist shape, case preference and desired presence.
Are Cartier Pasha Cartier and Pasha de Cartier Cartier searches the same thing?
Searches such as Cartier Pasha Cartier, Pasha de Cartier Cartier, watch Cartier Pasha and watch Pasha de Cartier usually refer to the same family of Cartier Pasha watches. The correct collection name is Pasha de Cartier, although collectors often shorten it to Pasha Cartier, Cartier Pasha or Cartier Pasha watch when searching for pre-owned examples.
