Santos de Cartier Large Automatic Steel Bracelet/Strap Watch
The Santos de Cartier Large Automatic Steel Bracelet/Strap Watch is a modern interpretation of one of the most iconic timepieces in horological history. Designed originally in 1904 by Louis Cartier for aviation pioneer Alberto Santos-Dumont, this legendary watch continues to embody Cartier’s legacy of elegance, innovation, and technical precision.
Crafted from premium stainless steel, the large 39.8 mm case reflects the signature Santos aesthetic with its rounded square shape, softened bezel corners, and exposed screw motifs—echoing the industrial inspiration behind the original design. The satin-brushed surfaces contrast beautifully with polished accents, creating a dynamic and contemporary look.
At the heart of this luxury timepiece is the Cartier Calibre 1847 MC, a self-winding mechanical movement offering reliable precision and a power reserve of approximately 42 hours. The silvered opaline dial features classic black Roman numerals, blued steel sword-shaped hands, and a discreet date window at 6 o’clock, all protected by a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.
Equipped with Cartier’s patented QuickSwitch™ system, this model offers seamless transition between the integrated steel bracelet and the included black leather strap, allowing you to tailor your style for any occasion. The SmartLink™ adjustment system ensures that the bracelet can be resized without the use of tools—fusing convenience with luxury.
Elegant yet robust, timeless yet versatile, the Santos de Cartier Large Automatic Steel Bracelet/Strap Watch is not just a watch—it’s a statement of sophisticated heritage and modern refinement, perfect for those who demand both function and form.
