The Pasha collection was inspired by a watch commissioned by the Pasha of Marrakesh in the 1930s, who wanted a luxurious timepiece that could withstand water exposure while maintaining elegance. Cartier designed a model with a screw-down crown cap, now a defining feature of the Pasha line. The Pasha is considered one of Cartier’s first attempts at creating a luxury sports watch, combining durability with opulence, long before the modern trend of luxury sports watches gained popularity. The unique chain-linked screw-down crown not only improves water resistance but also enhances its aesthetic appeal. This design prevents the crown cap from being misplaced, an innovative feature that has become synonymous with the collection.
