Cartier Ceinture Jumbo Automatique 17001 Automatic Paris Dial Serviced

The 17001 is one of my most loved post merger Cartier references. Why? With 30mm the size is just right, it carries an automatic movement and the Ceinture is just a pretty rare and not too know reference that attracts attention by its edgy, square and stepped case. You can tell the level of polish by the back of a 17001: The polished part should have a flat surface in which you should be able to see your face and the edges towards the front should be sharp and clean, meanwhile the bubble should carry sharp hallmarks and engravings. I bought the watch from the previous owner who got it from his dad and based on his words the watch is untouched, which is very rare for a Ceinture. All in all, finding a Ceinture in this condition is very hard and will be even harder in the future.
