The Cartier Santos is a true classic. As Cartier's first-ever wristwatch, it remains one of the brand's most iconic designs. Recognizable by its square shape, broad flanks and lugs, and signature visible screws, the Santos underwent a stylish update in the late 1980s with the introduction of the “Galbée” model. This version features a more curved, streamlined case, delivering an even more comfortable fit on the wrist compared to the original design.
This Cartier Santos is made of steel and gold. This example has all the characteristics of a classic Cartier watch, and the Santos is thought to be the watch that popularized steel and gold timepieces. The 29 x 41 mm case is in outstanding condition and is paired with a semi-integrated bracelet that comfortably fits wrists up to 19 cm (full links included). The dial showcases striking blue numerals, elegant blued hands, and a date display at 6 o’clock, along with the discreet "Cartier" signature cleverly hidden within the 7 o’clock numeral. This watch is powered by a reliable quartz movement, fully serviced by Cartier in March 2025 and equipped with a brand-new battery.
