Cartier Santos

Cartier Santos Large — Brand New

Overview

The Cartier Santos is not merely a watch — it is the very birthplace of the modern wristwatch. Created in 1904 by Louis Cartier for his friend, the Brazilian aviation pioneer Alberto Santos-Dumont, the Santos was the first wristwatch designed for a man, born out of a practical need to tell time while flying. Over a century later, it remains one of the most recognisable and influential watch designs in history.

The Santos Large strikes the perfect balance between bold presence and refined elegance. Its iconic square case with exposed screws, integrated bracelet, and Roman numeral dial are instantly recognisable — a design so ahead of its time that it has never needed to change. This brand new example represents the Santos at its finest.
