“Montre Couteau” “Couteau” is the term mostly used by Cartier and Vaecheron Constantin in their manufacturing records to described this type of watches with knife-edge cases, open-face or hunting-case models. The case of the hunting-case version is of an unusual construction with its two-body (cover and case-back); the movement is housed in an adapter ring whose upper part forms the bezel.
These watches – with less than 4 mm. thick for the open-face version and less 5 mm. version for the hunting-case version – are among the thinnest mechanical watches ever produced.
