Notes
This clock is brand new and appears never even to have been
taken out of its box. In the 1980s Cartier decided to revive the
splendor of its finest Art Deco creations with these desk/alarm
clocks. Among those re-created were the famous Basculante and
Tryptyque clocks. All featured typical Art Deco forms, colors, and
materials.
