Investment scorecard

Momentum50Measured price direction: the median recorded sale of the last 4 months against the median of 8 to 12 months ago. 50 means flat; small samples are pulled toward 50.
Liquidity34How easily it sells: recorded sales in the last 12 months (300 or more scores 100) and eBay's 90-day sell-through rate.
Scarcity18Demand against supply. For modern pieces, how far the market sits above or below current retail, plus a lift if production has ended. For vintage, how rarely one comes up for sale.
Value entry20Where the latest quarter's median sale sits inside its own 3-year range. Buying near the low scores high; buying at the high scores low.
Condition safety65How safe a typical example is: the age of the design, plus how tightly sale prices cluster (a wide spread means condition and originality swing the price).

The story

The Baignoire takes its name from its bathtub-like oval shape. It first appeared in 1912 and was relaunched in 2023.

Cartier relaunched it in gold only, and it resells far under boutique price. A beautiful watch, but not a store of value.

Our verdict: Sells for about 53% under its $13,900 boutique price. 6 recorded eBay sales in the last 12 months, with prices flat over the year.
