The thickness is also the same, as you can see in this profile photo: The movement is the same in-house caliber 1904 MC as in the original model, and it is also visible through the sapphire case back. The diameter of the Calibre 38 is reduced 4 mm from the original, which doesn’t sound like much but visually is quite dramatic.
I was slightly surprised when I saw a new, smaller version at a retailer recently. Born from the start with a masculine presence and size (42 mm), it has expanded in two directions: complicated with a chronograph, and “hardened” with the excellent diver version. I think of Cartier’s Calibre de Cartier watch as the collection of watches from Cartier, other than the expensive pieces in the Fine Watchmaking family, as being exclusively for men.
