The legendary Santos
Description
When we talk about Cartier watchmaking, the Santos model inevitably comes to mind. The first wristwatch launched by Cartier at the beginning of the 20th century, the Santos was a small revolution: a watch on the wrist, a square watch with clearly defined edges, visible studs to hold and secure the crystal. An Art Deco style that never ceases to please and which is today a real must-have for any watch lover. This piece is the large model version, curved with the date at 6 o'clock and the second hand.
Why did Françoise choose it?
It is an essential model in the Cartier repertoire. It is emblematic, both from a historical and stylistic point of view. Its dial gives it a touch of elegance. This Cartier Santos is truly perfect for daily wear. Its dial and the gold/steel mix goes with everything. It fits as well with a suit as it does with jeans.
It is elegant, practical with its quartz movement and date window, very comfortable on the wrist with its steel bracelet and curved case. A sporty watch that can be worn on both a feminine and masculine wrist.
History
Like the Tank, the Santos is one of Cartier's legendary models. It was designed in 1904 by Louis Cartier for his aviator friend Alberto Santos-Dumont. A pioneering watch, not only for aviation but also in the history of watchmaking: it is the first men's wristwatch. In the 1980s, the range split between the Santos Dumont, which remained faithful to the original design, and the Santos, which gained in modernity thanks to its integrated bracelet. Even today, the Cartier Santos is available in different versions, and continues to enjoy undeniable success!
