I've recently taken an interest in Cartier, CPCP, the Tortue in particular. I was hoping to get some input from those who are far more knowledgeable than me on Cartier.
I found an example on C24 that seems to be much cheaper than other listings for a 2496. The pics on the listing aren't great but, to me, the finishing of the case looks very dull, almost a brushed finish, and the case just doesn't look as sharp compares to other examples I've seen. The dial also looks a little discolored around the edges but not sure if those are just shadows. Is this something that can be restored adequately if I send it into Cartier for service? Or should I move on and look for a better example. If the latter, it seems that $20-22k is the asking price but not sure if it's worth it at that price point. Thank you in advance!
