Movement & Technical Research:
* Movement Caliber: Seiko Caliber 7A38 (Analog Quartz Chronograph)
* Origin & Architecture: Developed in Japan by Seiko in 1983, the 7A series was the world’s first analog quartz chronograph movement family.
* Engineering Excellence: Unlike modern plastic disposable quartz modules, the Caliber 7A38 is a high-grade, 15-jewel, all-metal movement built with individual step motors for each function. It features a 1/10th-second counter, 30-minute register, running seconds, and a dual Day-Date display integrated within the 3 o’clock sub-dial. Seiko supplied these high-grade movements to Cartier for the Ferrari Formula chronograph series during the 1980s.
Historical Background & Collector’s Note:
* The Enzo Ferrari x Cartier Partnership: In 1983, Ferrari founder Enzo Ferrari struck an exclusive licensing agreement with Alain-Dominique Perrin, President & CEO of Cartier, to launch the official “Ferrari Formula” collection. Unveiled on April 15, 1983, at Ferrari’s headquarters in Maranello, Italy, this was the very first large-scale official luxury timepiece collaboration in Ferrari’s history.
* Distinctive 1980s Racing Aesthetics: Designed with pushers shaped like engine cylinder bolts (hex-nuts), PVD-coated steel, and integrated lug geometry, capturing the bold aesthetic of 1980s Formula 1 racing.
