The Extra Thin WGTO0002 revisits that historic silhouette with a deliberately restrained mechanical execution, allowing the case shape and dial proportions to do most of the work.\u003cbr\u003eIn 18K rose gold with a silvered guilloché dial, the watch feels unmistakably Cartier: architectural, elegant and formal without becoming severe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy This Reference Matters\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe strength of the WGTO0002 lies in how faithfully it preserves Cartier’s traditional design language while keeping the construction exceptionally slim. Black Roman numerals, a chemin-de-fer minute track and blued-steel sword hands create the familiar Cartier vocabulary, while the curved Tortue case gives the watch a presence very different from a Tank or Santos.\u003cbr\u003eInside is the manually wound Calibre 430 MC, offering 40 hours of power reserve. Its slim profile is central to the reference, allowing the Tortue to remain elegant despite its relatively generous case dimensions. The movement suits the character of the watch well: simple, tactile and intentionally traditional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOn the Wrist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt approximately 44.95 x 36.1 mm, the Tortue Extra Thin has considerable length but wears more gracefully than the numbers might suggest. The curvature of the case helps it follow the wrist, while the thin profile prevents the watch from feeling bulky.\u003cbr\u003eRose gold gives the watch warmth, and the silvered guilloché dial keeps the overall palette balanced. The black Roman numerals and blued hands provide strong contrast, while the brown leather strap and rose gold folding clasp reinforce the classical character. It is a watch with presence, but that presence comes from shape rather than mass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition \u0026amp; Transparency\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis example is presented on a brown leather strap with an 18K rose gold folding clasp. Specific information regarding case condition, polishing history, dial and hand condition, crystal, strap condition, box and papers, and previous servicing has not been provided. These details should therefore not be assumed and should be confirmed as part of the individual watch assessment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy It Belongs in a Collection\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Tortue Extra Thin suits a collector who appreciates Cartier primarily as a master of form. Its appeal lies less in complication than in the way the case, dial and movement are resolved as a single design.\u003cbr\u003eWithin a broader collection, it offers a different expression from the more familiar Tank family. The Tortue shape is softer, more sculptural and less immediately formal, while the ultra-thin hand-wound construction keeps the experience refined and distinctly old-world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClosing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Cartier Tortue Extra Thin WGTO0002 is a refined expression of one of the Maison’s most enduring shaped cases. Its rose gold construction, silvered guilloché dial, Roman numerals and manually wound Calibre 430 MC come together with clarity and restraint. It is elegant, tactile and unmistakably Cartier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 44.95 mm x 36.1 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18K Rose Gold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Silvered Guilloché Dial with Black Roman Numerals and Blued Steel Sword-Shaped Hands\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStrap:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brown Leather Strap with 18K Rose Gold Folding Clasp\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower Reserve:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40 Hours\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMovement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manual-Winding (Calibre 430 MC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eShipments are delivered under Delivered Duty Unpaid (DDU) terms, with duties and taxes payable by the recipient.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e","brand":"TimeTells","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54063139225900,"sku":null,"price":15988.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0919\/4982\/6348\/files\/WGT00002-3797-34420VX-1.jpg?v=1789368337","url":"https:\/\/www.timetells.shop\/products\/cartier-tortue-extra-thin-wgto0002-silver-dial","provider":"TimeTells","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
