‘Beautiful’ rave designer fans as they rush to buy £59 dupe of £8000 Cartier watch
CARTIER, for many, is the designer jewellery brand, with many of us eyeing up Cartier watches, the Love bangle and matching rings.
Luckily for those looking to get that style on a budget, we have spotted a very similar dupe to Cartier's Panthère watch from Sekonda, which could save you thousands of pounds.
Sekonda Monica Maxi Ladies Watch, £64.99, Sekonda
The comes in various sizes, styles and colours, but we are particularly taken by the Maxi Classic version in the mixed metal, which retails for £64.99, and looks almost identical to the £8,000 .
You don't have to be a mathematician to work out that is one hefty saving, and an absolute no-brainer to get the luxe look for less - and to compliment the other designer dupe arm candy on your arm.
The features a stunning chain bracelet-like wrist strap and jewellery clasp, combined with a rectangular frame.

The Classic has a case width of 20 mm, and a strap width of 12 mm, which retails for £54.99, whereas the Maxi Classic has a case width of 29mm and a width of 6mm and is slightly bigger - though only by mere millimetres.
In comparison, the boasts a diameter of 23mm.
Look closely and the hands on the dial of the watch are blue, whereas Sekonda's are a classic black, and both watches feature Roman numerals.
Of course, the metals may be different too, which comes with the territory of buying luxury designer brands. Cartier uses steel and 18k yellow gold, whereas designs are ion-plated.
However, the beauty of design is it is water resistant up to 30 metres, which we don't think is the case for Sekonda.
Another praised its durability, and wrote: "Very stylish, hardwearing and comfortable to wear."
While a separate shopper said: "Love this watch, looks so classy and expensive. 100% recommend if you're going for that old money look for a budget!"

Another added: "It fits so beautifully on my tiny wrist, watches are always big on me even the normal ones, but this fits so perfectly."
Not sure how to style it? The beauty of the mixed metals means you don't have to choose from silver or gold accessories but mix them.
