Abbott Lyon's 'gorgeous' watch looks like Princess Diana's go-to Cartier one for over £7k less

First created in the 1980s, Cartier's Panthère Watch is an iconic design loved by many celebrities, from Madonna to Gwenyth Paltrow and even royalty such as Princess Diana. Prices can range anywhere from £4k to £128k and up, meaning it is definitely a luxury investment that not many can part with.

However, we're here to help you out with an alternative version that's well over £3k+ cheaper. The watch we've spotted is the Essence Gold Sunray 19 Watch from Abbott Lyon, which is priced at £149, making it roughly £7,851 less than the standard Panthère de Cartier watch.

Abbott Lyon's Essence watch features a square pink champagne dial set against an 18k gold-plated five-link strap. Finished with Quartz Seiko movement, water resistance and a two-year quality guarantee, it’s a thoughtful gift for a loved one or yourself.

Its sleek silhouette, square face, and elegant lookremind us of the Panthère de Cartier, but luckily for us, without the four-figure price tag.

If the gold links and pink champagne dial aren't really your style, the same watch is also available in a two-toned silver and gold colourway. The mixed metals optionfeatures a stunning pearlescent dial, and is so versatile whether you want to dress up or down.

A second shoppers raved about themixed metal option writing: "I haven’t worn a watch in many years aside from my sports watch but I had treated myself to a little birthday gift. I wore my new watch at the weekend and received so many compliment’s. A few people even assumed it was a high end luxury watch. Definitely looks more expensive than it was. Such a simple but pretty piece."
