Cartier Santos: The prestigious watch at the service of elegance 

Since its release in 1904, the Cartier Santos has established itself as a benchmark watch. Designed by Louis Cartier for aviator Alberto Santos-Dumont, It revolutionized watchmaking by becoming one of the first wristwatches for men.At that time, pocket watches still occupied an important place on the market, but the Brazilian aviator neededa more convenient solution to check the time in mid-flight, without letting go of the controls of the plane. Cartier accepts the challenge by creating a wristwatch that combines elegance and functionalityThis avant-garde concept marked a break with the watchmaking traditions of the time and paved the way for the development of men's wristwatches.

Identifiable at first glance, the Cartier Santos is characterized by its iconic square case, a boldness that contrasts with traditional round watches. Visible screws, another distinctive element, evoke the design of the first airplanes and refer to the rivets of the fuselages, thus reinforcing its industrial and modern look.
