It is not widely known that at the beginning of the 20th century the Prince of Wales who liked to spend a little money here and there and then a little more here and there described Cartier as the "Joaillier des Rois, Roi des Joailliers."

Now that is a nice compliment and proved that at least one Prince of Wales could speak French rather well, but what on earth did he mean.

Well simply translated he said this “Cartier is a Jeweller to Kings and the King of Jewellers” now that is a nice compliment, but you can’t eat compliments so it is just as well that the Prince of Wales ordered 27 Tiaras though it is not known what he did with them the Cartier brothers didn’t care, their business was a great success.

Cartier Brothers business became as we know ever more successful and just before the war they started to make watches in the same beautiful way that they made Tiaras for princes – perfectly.

Today everyone wants to own a Cartier watch and why not they are perfection with a strap, thank goodness that we can even though we aren’t royalty, thank goodness for out Replica Cartier watches.
