Cartier Santos GM gold & steel

The legendary Santos

Description

When we talk about Cartier watchmaking, we think about the Santos model. 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 glass. An Art Deco style that never ceases to please and which is today a real must-have for any watch lover. This reference 2961 is perhaps the most sought after with its large size, its automatic movement, the second hand and the date window.

It is elegant, practical, very comfortable on the wrist thanks to its steel bracelet. A sporty and elegant watch that can be worn on both a feminine and masculine wrist.

Why did Françoise choose her?

It is an essential model in the Cartier repertoire. It is emblematic, both from a historical and stylistic point of view. A pleasant, practical and discreet piece. 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 and a t-shirt.
