The story of the Cartier Crash watch is one that I spend more time discussing in that article I just linked to above. Cartier (perhaps understandably) doesn't market the actual creation of the watch with as much transparency as I think collectors deserve. According to Cartier, the Crash was a simple byproduct of the 1960s in "Swinging London." That is technically true, but the more gruesome reality is far more interesting.
It actually does represent a melted watch - a Cartier that was in a burning car crash and the "deformed" watch was all that survived of the wearer. Cartier decided to actually produce watches based on the melted watch which became the aptly named "Cartier Crash." Some of the late 1960s Cartier Crash original watches are still around, and I think they would make for very interesting collectors' models. Originally a men's watch, in 2012 when the Cartier Crash was reintroduced, it was as a women's watch, complete with a lovely bracelet and diamond decoration in all 18k white or rose gold cases.
