What is the Pasha de Cartier Ref. 2379?

The Pasha Grille in stainless steel: a 38 mm case, 10 to 11 mm thick, with Vendôme-type lugs, a revolving graduated bezel with dark blue enamel numerals, a crown under a cabochon-set protective cap on a security link and a removable protective grille over the sapphire crystal. The guilloché dial comes in silver, white or black, with stylized Arabic numerals, a date at 5 o'clock and luminous blued steel lozenge hands. The movement is the automatic Cartier Cal. 191 with 27 jewels, seen through a transparent case back held by 8 screws.

What is the grille on the 2379?

A protective grid over the sapphire crystal that can be taken off, which Antiquorum calls a removable protective grille. It is what separates the 2379 from the Ref. 2378, the open-dial Pasha in the same 38 mm steel case on the same Cal. 191.

Which movement is in the Ref. 2379?

The Cartier Cal. 191, a self-winding movement with 27 jewels, rhodium-plated with oeil-de-perdrix decoration, in five Antiquorum lots and one at Fellows. The one exception found is a circa 2003 example listed by a dealer as 2379 / W31040H3 with a caliber 2824 and 17 jewels, so check the movement through the case back.

What dial variants exist on the Ref. 2379?

Guilloché dials in three colors, silver, white and black, all cataloged by Antiquorum. Its white and black dials have applied steel stylized Arabic numerals and some silver ones painted numerals; no catalog consulted shows a salmon dial.

How do I tell a vintage Pasha Grille from a modern one?

By the number and the movement. Antiquorum and Fellows catalog the steel Grille as Ref. 2379 with the Cal. 191 and case numbers ending in CD, such as 61876CD and 90044CD. The Grille has also returned in Cartier's current collection, so read the case back before relying on a listing.

Visual Description

The Ref. 2379 is the Pasha Grille: a 38 mm stainless steel Pasha, 10 to 11 mm thick, with a protective grille over the sapphire crystal that can be removed. The case is polished and brushed, with Vendôme-type lugs, a revolving graduated bezel engraved with dark blue enamel numerals and a crown under a cabochon-set protective cap on a security link. The back is transparent and held by 8 screws.

Under the grille, the guilloché dial comes in silver, white or black, with stylized Arabic numerals, luminous triangular indexes and a date at 5 o'clock. The hands are luminous blued steel lozenges. Antiquorum describes the crown's cabochon as onyx on its 2003 and 2004 examples and records water resistance to 100 m on the 2004 one.

Reference Significance

The 2379 is the grille version of the steel Pasha. The Ref. 2378 has the same 38 mm steel case and the same Cal. 191 without the grille, and the gold Pashas of the 1980s, such as the Ref. 820903, run on a cal. 2824-2.

Historical Context

Antiquorum dates its 2003 and 2004 examples to the 1990s and four later ones to circa 2000, and Finarte gives the 2000s. The latest dated examples found carry a warranty dated 2001 and a circa 2003 date.

The movement is the Cal. 191 in five Antiquorum lots and at Fellows. The circa 2003 example, listed with the catalog number W31040H3, has a caliber 2824 with 17 jewels instead, the only such record found.

What to Look For

Check the movement through the transparent back: catalogs give the Cal. 191, and a caliber 2824 has been recorded only on the one circa 2003 example listed as 2379 / W31040H3. Make sure the grille is present and seats securely, and look at the cabochon in the crown cap and its security link.

Antiquorum and Fellows print case numbers ending in CD, such as 479493CD and 90044CD. The cataloged dials are guilloché with stylized Arabic numerals; no catalog consulted shows a salmon dial.
